Aged Man Drops Dead In Street

Thomas Armstrong Steps upon curbing and fall over.

Death came suddenly to Thomas Armstrong, 65 years old, a former federal soldier, Monday. Armstrong had just steeped upon the curb of the sidewalk in front of 127 West Reno avenue, when he dropped to the ground. He was carried into the residence of Charles Stover, 127 West Reno avenue, where he expired a few minutes afterward and before medical aid could be summoned.

The remain are being held at Marshall & Harper's undertaking parlor for funeral arrangements. The man was little known here. He carried letters from S. M. Maley of Enid and other letters which identified him as being Thomas Armstrong.

An autopsy will be held Tuesday by the coroner's jury to determine the cause of his death. It is said that he suffered with dropsy and that his death might have been caused by that disease and heart trouble. So far as could be  ascertained Monday night by the police  the dead man had no near relatives in Oklahoma.

Armstrong Falls Dead on Street

An autopsy by the corners' jury over the body of Thomas Armstrong, 65 years old, who dropped dead upon the curb of the sidewalk at 127 West Reno avenue Monday afternoon, was held in Justice Zwick's court at 3 o'clock Tuesday afternoon. The physicians who called at the residence of Charles Stover, where he was carried after his death pronounced it to be a case of apoplexy and the remains were taken to the Marshall-Harper undertaking parlors. A cousin of the dead man, J. E.  Mayberry of Enid, is coming to arrange for the funeral. Armstrong is survived by a widow and daughter living somewhere in Arkansas.
