JAMES EDWARD MCGOWAN PASSES
 AWAY AT ANN ARBOR, MICH.

JAMES EDWARD MCGOWAN PASSES AWAY AT ANN ARBOR, MICH.
 James Edward McGowan of Water town, a student at the University of
 Michigan, died at the age of nineteen Ann .Arbor, Michigan. at 10 o'clock
 Tuesday, after an illness of but one
 week with typhoid fever. The de-
 ceased leaves to mourn his loss his
 parents, MT and Mrs John D. McGow
 an, two sisters, Mary and Louise, and
 four brothers, William G., John w.,
 Charles and Walter. James Edward
 McGowan was born in Watertown,
 October 21, 1885. He was educated in
 the public schools and after graduat-
 ing with honorS from the Watertown
 Center District school, entered the
 junior class in the Waterbury High
 from that institu tiOn two years later,
 receiving his diploma in June, 1903.
 In the fall of that year he took exam
 nations for entering the University of
 Michigan and passed successfully. He
 had spent hardly two months of his sophomore year there when he was
 taken seriously ill with an attack of
 typhoid fever and week later died,
 just in the flush sof youth and when
 his hopes were highest. He had been studying unusually hard and faithfully since he returned to the university this year and getting but little out door exercise. and the sudden attack of the fever is attributed to over- study on the part of the student. The deceased is we'll known among a great many of the younger people of
 Waterbury and he became immensely popular with all who knew him. His quiet and reserved disposition brought him many friends, all of whom will re- gret to hear of his sudden demise. He played second base on the local high school team of 1903.and.his fine work in this capacity brought him a host of admirers. He was one who did not seek popularity or friends, but was of a disposition that forced all to hold him in the highest respect. At high | school he devoted almost his entire | time to study and entered no athletic 1 contests except baseball, feeling that | he could not afford to if he would take advantage of his educational oppor- tunitieS. He was member of the junior class team at the local high | school and with apparently no effort secured his "W" on the school team in 1903. When he went to Ann Arbor, he took no part whatsoever in athlet- cs, but confined himself wholly to hard study. He had progressed rapid y at the university and was gradually toward the head of his class, when this unfortunate attack came lpon him. Although he had been an was physically strong and we'll, the continued strain was too
