Virginian-Pilot  December 14, 1933
Capt. Owen William McDonald, seafaring man of many years’ experience, was found 
dead yesterday morning in the kitchen of a rooming house on East Main street, 
with all jets on the gas range open. The discovery was made by a Negro maid 
employed there.
The case was investigated by Dr. C. D J. Macdonald, city coroner, and Detective 
Leon Nowitzky, coroner’s investigator. Dr. Macdonald said it was a clear case of 
suicide, and no inquest was necessary.
Captain McDonald was 49 years old and had been living in Norfolk for eight 
years. He was a native of Plattsburg, N.Y.
Funeral services will be conducted at H. D. Oliver’s funeral apartments, 610-12 
East Freemason street, this morning at 11 o’clock, with burial in St. Mary’s 
Cemetery.
