DEATH OF THREE CURWENSVILLE MEN SHOCK TO FRIENDS

Ai McNaul, T. Lawrence Way and Robert Addleman, all of Pioneer Stock, Die Within a Few Hours

TWO DEATH SUDDEN

Ai McNaul and Robert Addleman of Curwensville and T. Lawrence Way of Brady Township, all well known in Clearfield County and especially esteemed in Curwensville, died within three of four hours of each other yesterday afternoon. Loss of these three leading citizens and members of pioneer pike Township families is keenly felt by thousands who knew all three men.

Ai McNaul perhaps the best know and most active of the three, died at his home on State Street, Curwensville, about 3:00 o'clock yesterday afternoon after having suffered a stroke of apoplexy Sunday morning, May 19. He had been actively engaged in conducting his business up until the time of the attack and his death after such a short illness came as a cruel shock to his family and close friends.

Robert Addleman, who was about 70 years of age, was working in the garden at his home on Susquehanna avenue, South Side, Curwensville, yesterday afternoon when he was seized with a heart attack. He fell to the ground and was dead when member of his household found him. Although he has not been enjoying robust health for a number of years, Mr. Addleman has not been seriously ill and his death also came without warning.

Almost identical circumstances surround the death of T. Lawrence Way. Mr. Way was plowing a field on his farm near Luthersburg in Pike Township when he fell dead from an attack of apoplexy. He was only 63 years of age and had apparently been in good health, death coming with unexpected suddenness.

Renowned Raftsman

Robert Addleman was on of the most renowned raftsmen in Pike Township in his earlier days. HE was born and raised in that township and spent his early life in the lumbering and farming business. Later he became interested in mining operations and during the latter years of his active life operated mines near Curwensville. He retired several years ago on account of failing health.

Mr. Addleman is survived by three children, his wife having died several years ago. One son, William Addleman and family moved to Altoona only a few weeks ago, having gone to Boulder Dam to help on the construction work there. The other son, Frank, resides at Curwensville and a daughter lives at Jersey Shore. Funeral arrangements were not known today.
