seven and eight years ago.
Mr.. Hegeman was member Of ST.

viewed with sadness. He was also a
longtime member of the Tailor's I'm

Porter at Local Tailor Shop Found
Lying Dead on the Table When
Men Arrive to Begin
Days Work.
FORMER ST. Lou1sAN
William Joyce, Who Was Found Dead
Had Several Brothers In ST. Louis
and They VIII be
Located.

When workmen in the tailor shop
at 318 Main street. went to work this
morning they discovered the body OF
William Joyce. the porter lying on
one Of the tables. Joyce was sixty
eight years old and when seen last
night was enjoying the best of health.
Heart disease was given as the cause
of death.
The body was found by William T.
Collins, tailor. who came to work
about six o'clock this morning but
found the door locked and the key
was not hanging in its accustomed
place. He went down stairs to the
alley and called James Shields to
help him raise a ladder to one OF
the windows, SO that he could crawl
through. When the ladder was raised
Collins mounted it and when he ap-
preached the window, was Mortified
to see Joyce lying on the table
1t is thought that Joyce had moved
his bedding from his .oom in the
front of the building, to the rear, in
order that he might receive the ben.
eft of the breeze and escape the ex.
IRENE heat. There was nothing to in
dictate that his death had not been a
peaceful one.
+ Several of the workmen in the
room said that they had seen Joyce
about nine O'Clock last night, sitting
in the front window and had called
TO him from the street below. He was
apparently feeling all right. He wa!
not a hard drinker, say the men who
worked with him.
I Joyce had been porter for thu
place about eight years, coming herr
/ from st. Louis where he was borl
and had lived until he came here.
lis said that he has several brother
in ST. Louis, but their address Is un
known. After the coroner had view
ed the remains, the body was remoN
ed to the morgue of local under
taking firm and prepared for buria

garding the whereabouts of his broth
