o'clock
About 10 o'clock "Nr. and Mrs. william

lently III at the Grand Union hotel and
that a doctor was wanted.
After telephoning the woman dlsap-
peared. and nobody at the hotel has been
able 10 give much OF description OF her.
DR.. Ward Bryant Hoag, who. although
not Mr. Pooles family physician, had
been acquainted with the liveryman in
business way, was called for by the livery
people. When he reached the Grand
Union hotel Mr.. Poole had been dead
about an hour Death was apparently
due 10 natural causes. As far as can be
learned nobody In the hotel had beer no
tilted that Mr.. Poole was III or knew that
he was dead. He was probably dead when
the telephone message was sent
When Coroner Scholer reached the ho-
tel, soon after o'clock. he found among
other things I'm Mr. Pooles room a quart
bottle half full OF whlskey. In Mr.. Poole's
pockets he FOUND papers which showed
that he owned real estate on the upper
West side, some OF IL I'm his wffe's name.
The body was sent 10 an undertaker's on
Fourth avenue.
Or. Hoag Immediately went TO Poole's
home. Mrs. Poole was driving In the park
all the afternoon and did not learn OF her
husbands death until nearly 5 O'Clock
When she heard that he had been in COM
pany with another woman she said that
nothing could make her believe H.
We have always been perfectly hap
py, she saId. II approve OF everything
that my hHs6and has ever done"
The Pooles had no children and had
oeen married over 20 years Mr. Poole has
been In the livery business here for
number OF years. He formerly had a place
IN Forty-hrst street and had been in
Eighty-seventh street for eight years
Besides the stable property Mr.. Poole
also owned the house In West End ave.
nue. where he lived and a country place
In Maine. One OF Ills business associates
