Owen Lee Montgomery
Coroner D. K. STINSON has been called to probe the death of Owen Lee MONTGOMERY, 77, who passed away at 9:45 o'clock this morning, a few minutes after he had been removed to Woodlawn hospital from his home, 610 1/2 Main street.
The deceased who was reported ill at his home, where he lived alone, had locked himself in. Local officers, using fire department ladders, entered through a second story window and found him in a dying condition at the top of the stairs, where he fell, while supposedly trying to reach help. Symptoms of ptomaine, from which he was alleged to have been suffering, are being sought and checked, it is said.
Born March 30, 1868, he was the son of the late Theodore and Margaret WILSON MONTGOMERY, and was reared on a farm a mile west of the city on the Burton road. He was a lifetime member of this community where, during his active years, he engaged in farming.
His wife, Bessie McCARTER MONTGOMERY, three brothers, Frank [MONTGOMERY] Commodore [MONTGOMERY] and Orbra F. [MONTGOMERY], preceded him in death. Surviving are three children, Freda [MONTGOMERY] of Washington, D.C., Theodora [MONTGOMERY] of Deal, Md., and Ray [MONTGOMERY], present address unknown.
The body will lie at the Val Zimmerman funeral home pending funeral arrangements.
