THE FLAGLER TRIBUNE
Bunnell, Florida
Thursday, July 23, 1942

 

W. A. Warner, winter visitor here for 15 years, died in a hospital in Bartavia, N. Y. July 17th, according to a letter received here by Mr. and Mrs. F. L. Byrd, owners of the Halcyon Hotel, where he lived during his stay here.

Mr. Warner left here for his home in Kingston, N. Y. last May after spending the winter. He was not as active this past winter as he had been in years past. He did a lot of fishing in local waters and enjoyed the friendly rivalry for catches with local fishermen.

He was about 80 years of age, and is survived by a sister, Mrs. Bennet and a niece, Mrs. Winfield of' Ulster Park, N. Y.

He came to Bunnell the first time 20 or more years ago when he was employed by J. B. Boaz as superintendent of a cooperage factory operating here at that time.

During the many winters spent here he acquired many friends, all of whom will regret to learn of his death.
