Dies Just as He Foresaw 
Altoona, Pa., Dec. 20

  Having a presentiment that he was going to die, Fred Andrews, aged 
50, formerly a salesman, who had been ill for some time, called his 
business partner to his side today, took a walk through the hospital, 
visiting the crippled children's ward, bade farewell to other patients 
whom he knew, then returned to his own room and gave minute directions 
for the disposition of his personal effects even to the burning of his 
letters.
  "Tell my friends I face the future with tranquility," he said. 
"Goodbye, old fellow, the end is near."
  His head fell back and he was dead.  Andrews promoted a box and slate 
company.  He was widely known and prominent in Masonic circles.
