Alva Dozer was found dead in his store in lower Putnam by the police at an early hour Saturday morning. Death is believed to have been due to acute indigestion.
The deceased was 77 years of age and spent practically all of his life as a resident of this city, working at the carpenter trade at the Baltimore and Ohio railway shops for many years. He was for a while employed as watchman in the part near the Grant school house and since then has conducted a candy store on Putnam Avenue.
About one week ago he moved his stock to a shanty near the Tube works where he was found dead.
He is survived by his widow and a daughter Mrs. C. L. Atkinson of Putnam Avenue.
The funeral services will be conducted from the Arnold and Bateman Undertaking establishment, Monday morning at 10 o'clock.
Interment will be made in Woodlawn Cemetery.
