The body of Irving Fullenwider, age seventy-two, 49 west Forty-ninth street was recovered from Fall creek near Pennsylvania street Friday.
Apparently despondent because of impaired health, he is believed to have waded into the creek until he sank. According to friends he was so feeble he could scarcely walk 100 feet without resting.
Fullenwider had been missing from home since Wednesday when he left, asserting he was going to buy some tobacco.
Survivors are the widow, Mrs. Rhoda Fullenwider; six daughters, Mrs. W. P. Crockette, Miss Eleanor Jane and Miss Helen Fullenwider, of Indianapolis; Mrs. R. C. Kelly, Peoria, Ill.; Mrs. Clarence Fine, Wallace, Ind., and Mrs. William H. Stevenson, Wilmington, Del.; two sons, George H. Fullenwider, Carlton, Ore., and Moxley Fullenwider, Indianapolis.
Mr. Fullenwider moved to Indianapolis seven years ago. He was born Feb. 4, 1862, on the Bank Springs farm near Waveland, the son of Davis and Catherine Elizabeth Moxley Fullenwider. He was married to Rhoda Catherine Hobson, Nov. 17, 1887. He was the last surviving member of a family of ten children.
