CARK D. SOWL, FORMER POLICE OFFICER, IS DEAD
Resident of Beloit for 35 Years Succumbs of Heart Disease
Clark D. Sowl, 1131 Prairie avenue, a former police officer and a resident of Beloit approximately 35 years, died at 7:30 o'clock last night at the Methodist hospital at Madison. He was 54 years old.
Mr. Sowl had not been in good health for the last two years. Two weeks ago he was admitted to the hospital at Madison to receive treatment for heart trouble. Apparently he was improving and yesterday Mrs. Sowl went to the hospital to bring him home. While he was preparing to leave the hospital he had a sinking spell and he died a short time later.
BORN AT ARGYLE
Born March 10, 1883, at Argyle, Wis., he came to Beloit in 1903. He had been actively employed as a merchant policeman since early this year until he went to the hospital. For a number of years he was employed as a motorman on the former interurban line, and later he was a motorman on the Beloit street railway system. In recent years he was a painting contractor also.
Mr. Sowl became a police officer March 28, 1928, and resigned July 22, 1929. Since 1929 and until he became a merchant policeman, he frequently served as a relief policeman. He was a member of Our Savior's Lutheran church and the Masonic Lodge.
SERVICES PROBABLY SATURDAY
Survivors are his wife; his mother, Mrs. William Sardeson, Beloit; a daughter, Miss Lillian Sowl, Beloit; a son, Harold Sowl, Milwaukee; a sister, Mrs. Irvin Joy, Beloit; four brothers, Fred Sowl, Duluth, Minn, Roy Sowl, a police detective at Rockford, Roslyn Sowl, Blue Island, Ill., and Delos Sowl of Beloit. A sister, Elsie Sowl, preceded him in death.
Funeral arrangements have not been completed but services probably will be held Saturday afternoon.
