"SUDDEN DEATH

Albert Battreall Left For a Moment, Found Swinging from Scaffold

Albert Battreall, a painter, aged 44 years, met death suddenly while working with his brother-in-law, W. Haushalter, at the new factory of the Miller Rubber Co., on Stanton ave., Monday afternoon. The men were working on a scaffold, and Haushalter left for a few minutes to procure more paint. When he returned he found Battreall hanging from the scaffold head downward, his foot having caught between two boards.

Haushalter freed his foot and summoned Dr. Thomas, but life was extinct before the doctor had arrived. The remains were taken to Parks' morgue, where Coroner E.O. Leberman decided that death was caused by heat exhaustion. The supposition is that Battreall was overcome by heat, and fell, and that his foot was caught as he swung over the edge of the scaffold. He was unmarried, and lived with the Haushalters, at 237 S. Howard st. The funeral services will be held at Parks' chapel, Wednesday afternoon. Interment in Mt. Peace cemetery."

Burial date: 7/9/1902 by C.T. Parks funeral home.
