Or. I'd. SUMMERS
fhktN BY DEATH
Grief Over Elopement Scandal in
Which Wife Figured Believed To
Have fastened End.

DR.. Frank D. Summers, one of the
best known physicians and surgeons
in Detroit. died in his home, No. 20
Adelaide-st., Thursday morning, OF
Bright's disease. The malady de-
veloped several months ago, but did
not take a serious turn until 10 days
ago, since when the doctor had been
confined TO his bed.
DR.. Summers was born in Utica,
Mich, 49 years ago, and had lived In
Detroit upwards of rs years. He was
exceedingly popular with his fellow
practitioners, enjoyed a large practice
and had a wide circle of friends to
whom his untimely taking away will
come as a great shock
Close friends of the dead physician
say his illness was the result OF
worry over domestic troubles. About
six years ago his wife, Mrs. Beatrice
Summers. was one OF the principals
in an elopement scandal, and later
DR.. Summers secured a divorce. Mrs.
Summers mother. Mrs. Beatrice
Klein. continued to reside with the
doctor and took care of him in his
last illness. There were no children.
Grief over the breaking up OF his mar
ried life preyed upon the doctor very
keenly his friends assert. although
his quiet reserved nature caused him
TO keep his grief to himself and no
mention was ever made by him of the
unfortunate affair.
DR.. Summers is survived by his
twin brother, Frederick, OF Chicago,
and two other brothers, Thomas ]. of
Walled Lake. and David. OF Inlay
City. The funeral services will be
held in the residence, Saturday after
noon at o'clock. Palestine lodge. A.
