New York Times, 1 August 1920 Charles W. S. Ahearn, 32 years old, of 131 Olmstead Place, Glendale, L. I., business agent of the Amalgamated Silver Workers Union No. 38, was found dead, seated at a desk in his office at 27 3d Av. yesterday. Mrs. Ahearn, worried because her husband did not return home last night, sent her nephew, Victor McVay, to his office in the morning to make inquiry. When the young man reached the office he found the door locked and summoned patrolman Mahoney of the Fifth Street station who broke down the door. A typewritten letter addressed to his wife was found lying on the desk in front of him but its contents were withheld by the police, who admitted, however, that the author of the letter had said he was dissatisfied with life. Dr. Garret, summoned from Bellevue by police, could not say what caused the man's death, but thought he had taken poison. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Dennis Ahern | The Ahern Family Genealogy Website Acton, Massachusetts | http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~aherns/ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
