HAIillLTON COUNT! RECORB WILLIAM RANDOLPH CALL PASSED AWAY AT HOSPITAL IN NEWARK, NEW JERSEY W illiam Randolph Call, oldest eon of Supervisor and Mrs. Edward D. Call of Ho{>e, Hamilton County, died Monday , morning in the Presbyterian Hospital, at Newark, N. J., after tw o operations for appendieitie and intestinal troubles. During the fight for hie life, “Ran” was backed by his four brothers who trav eled far on several occasions to provide blood for transfusions. .H e was 39 years old. W . Randolph Call went to Newark several years ago, and for a time was employed by the Public Service Pro duction Company, which among other big projects supervised the construction of the Roosevelt H ighway in Pennsyl vania. Liater he became connected w ith the equipment departm e n t of the / New jersey highway bureau. He was highly esteemed by his employers who placed the greatest confidence in him. H e was respected for his ability and integrity; a rd was widely esteemed for his kindly disposition, and his capacity for making friends. Many will regret his early demise. The deceased is survived by his wife, formerly Mildred Grunow of Hacken sack, and 6 year old son, .John Grunow Call; by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Edward D. Call .of Hope; and four brothers: Herbert of Clayton,' N . Y., Everest and W alter of Speculator and Xiake Pleasant, and Woodrow of Glov- ersville.

Interment was made in Hackensack cemetery. INVESTICATINC DEATH OF DR. JOHN G. W. KNOLL An effort is being 'made to establish all the facts in connection with the recent deaths in the J. G. W. K noll Camp, near Sacandaga Camp Site., two having occurred since August 5th. It will he recalled that Mrs. Wilhel- m ina VanArnam of Buffalo, sister of Dr. J. G. W. Knoll, who had been stay ing alone in his c^mp, was found badly decomposed, slumped over in a chair. Death is believed to have oc curred some time between August 5th and August 17th, and w a s due to nat ural causes. Nothing has since been established to indicate otherwise. Bhe was reputed to have a fortune, which tended to arouse suspicion in view of the later developments. There was no evidence to indicate an acute illness. She was aged 70 years, 11 months. The second death, that of Dr. J. G. W. Knoll aged 73 years, 5 months, occurred in the same camp, at 3:10 o’clock the afternoon of August 26th. Dr. Knoll and three friends arrived in camp, and a l l became acutely ill shortly after breakfasting on pancakes, bacon and syrup. Mr. and Mrs. E . A. Ruhling and Mrs. May W illitts are recovering, bnt Dr. Knoll passed away because bis age apd a heart attack left him without any resistance. In questioning Dr. H. W.- Beaty, the attending physician, it was learned that all the pancake flour had been used, but the contents of a baking-powder can was anal 3 zed at the Nathan Lit- tauer Hospital and was said to contain arsenic. The poison had been in the container long enough so that corrosion had taken place. Bits of pancake from the plate of Mrs. W illitts were also tested and were said to contain the same, poison. Dr. Knoll stirred up the cakes for the disastrous breakfast i t is reported, au<i to have eaten six, while his guests each had but three. A ll became acutely ill. Dr. K noll died after a few hours, and the camp was turned into a hospital for tb e others for several days. As SOOU aS XMNSsible, they returned to Buffalo where Mrs. W illitts is still bed ridden in the hom e of her daijghter. Her condition was more serious' than the rest. Further investigation is taking place in Bnffalo, through chemical analysis an effort is being made to find traces of arsenic still in the systems of those who are recovering. They are anxious to co-operate in every respect in solving the problem. , According to Dr, Beaty nothing fur ther can be learned by exhuming the bodies than is already known, and to his knowledge this has not been con templated. W ith the establishm ent of these es sentials, all the information will be placed before the proper authorities to determine whether there has been a crime, or whether the death of Dr. K noll and the illness of his guests were , due to carelessness in storing poison in a baking-powder can. B eside his widow Emma, Dr. Knoll is survived by a daughter. Mrs. Lyman Strong. Dr. Lyman Strong came here and claimed the body of his father-in- law who was his professional partner. The honae address is 1067 E llicott St., Buffalo. E xplanatio - matter In brae omitted. latter in italics is new: i I J is o ld la w to be STATt 7 NEW YORK D ep /.
