WILLIAM CROWLE
November 15, 1898

The hope entertained that the life of William Crowle might be spared 
was dissipated last Firday monring when the spirit took its flight. 
He had been sick for several weeks with Typhoid pneumonia and a
lthough everything possible was done to assist nature in combating 
the dread disease, it was unavailing.  The case is especially sad 
as a widow and two children of tender years are left witout the 
protection so invaluable to them.

William Crowle, the deceased, was a native of St. Austell, Cornwall, 
England, 29 years of age.  He had resided here three years and a 
half and owing to his prominence in Globe Miners Union (of which 
he was president at the time of his death) and membership in Rescue 
Lodge, No. 12 IOOF and Tonto Tribe No. 13, he was very well known 
and well liked in the community.  

The funeral under the auspices of the M.E. Church, last Sunday 
afternoon was a sad and impressive occasion.  The services at 
church and grave were conducted by the Odd Fellows and a brief 
address delivered by Rev. E.O. McIntier.  The funeral procession 
was one of the longest witnessed in Globe, there being upwards 
of 250 members of the three orders in line and the scenes at the 
church and grave were affecting.
