Decatur Herald 11/27/1930
James Gentry an elderly man said to have no relatives in Decatur, died at 10 Olock Wednesday night in St. Marys hospital. Death apparently was caused by apoplexy.
Gentry was found in an unconscious condition in a hallway of the Bachrach building at noon Wednesday. He was taken to St. Marys hospital in one of Morans ambulances. All the ambulance men were able to learn about him was his name and the fact that he was a comparative stranger to person in the building where he was found.
The body was taken to Morans. An investigation will be made to find the mans family. He was about 60 years old.
