Mr. Meyers, while in Canada contracted pneumonia and died Thursday. Mr. Meyers had great hopes of being able to make a well at Rankin and when he left requested that work be suspended until he returned as he felt confident that oil would be reached in a short distance and he wanted to bring it in. Work was suspended and all who are connected with the Rankin well feel that his loss is a great loss to the company. Mr. Meyers has been in the Rankin community so long that he has won a warm spot in the hearts of the Rankin people who regret to receive this sad intelligence. Cheyenne Star, Cheyenne, OK 16-Apr-1925
