  W. J. POWELL DIES AT WHEEL OF HIS CAR
  Citizens returning to the business district Tuesday afternoon were stunned to learn that a message had come from Milwaukee telling of the sudden death of Walter Powell. It was hard to believe and harder to realize for he had spent half the morning in the J. c. Coxe company store, amiably meeting customers as he had done for nearly 40 years.
  Abour 10:00 Mrs. Powell, Walter, and their daughter, Marguerite, left for Milwaukee, who was driving, came upon a truck halted at an arterial. Not seeing the light obscured by the truck and not realizing that it was an arterial he pulled out around and was half way across the street when he saw that he had violated a traffic rule. He hesitated, then drove across where he was met by a traffic officer who motioned him to the curb. The official was not particularly harsh, according to Mrs. Powell, nor was he very conciliatory. The conversation upset Walter just enough to throw an added strain on his defective heart and he collapsed over the wheel.
  A momentary effort to revive him was fruitless and he was hurried to the Milwaukee County Hospital. Physician’s there stated that life was extinct.
  Probably no one in Whitewater knew more people or was known to more that Walter Powell. his daily contacts with the public over a period of four decades, together with a good memory, made him somewhat of an authority on our citizens. He was a member of the M. E. church, of the Fire Department and Masonic Order.
  Walter was born in Whitewater on September 28th, 1878 and on May 21st, 1910 was married to Miss Lillian Keller of Jefferson. There are two children, a daughter marguerite and a son Walter Jr.; W. S. Powell of Stevens Point is a brother and Mrs. H. E. Fowler of this city is a sister.
  The funeral will be held Friday afternoon at 2 o'clock at the M. E. church and interment will follow at Hillside. Rev. W. R. Conner will officiate.
