Sergeant William J. Heatherton, 32 years old, died at 10:15 o’clock last night at 
his home, 814 Granby street. About a year after the civil court of Norfolk was 
established, Mr. Heatherton was appointed its clerk. He resigned December 14, 
1917, to enlist in the United States Army as a private in the engineer corps, 
stationed at Norfolk, and was soon afterwards made a sergeant. He had many friends 
in Norfolk, where he had lived all of his life, and especially in official circles 
of the city. He leaves his mother, Mrs. Kate Heatherton, and brother, George A. 
Heatherton, who succeeded him as civil court clerk. The deceased was an active 
member of the Norfolk Lodge of Elks. Funeral arrangements are yet to be made.
