!. PASSES AWAY At
BEAUT|F Ill HOME
William Rockefeller Is
Victim of Pneumonia
After Wetting
(By Associated PresAl

Tarrytown, N. Y, June 24.-Wil-
liam Rockefeller, who, with his older
brother, John D., built up the family
millions in the oil industry, died to-
day of pneumonia complicated by re-
currence of kidney trouble at his
country estate overlooking the Hud-
son river from North Tarrytown. He
was 81 years old.
To all but relatives and closest
friends the end was unexpected, for,
as he lay fighting stubborniy against
death behind the guarded gates to his
beautiful acres, no hint was given
that he even was iudisposed. He
was caught in heavy rains in New
York last. Saturday and 0 nthe trip
home that evening and shortly after
midnight the cold which he had
caught became serious.
Physicians were called in before
dawn on Sunday, They found Mr.
Rockefeller suffering an acute attack
of indigestion. The next day pre-ex-
istent kidney trouble began to trou-
BILE him again and the cold developed
into pneumonia. Thursday Mr., Rock
efeller lapsed into Inconsistencies
and from then on he was never in con.
troll of his senses.
| Last night Mr., Rockefeller's
breathing grew heavier and from
then uutil $40 this morning when he
expired oxygen was administered
continuously.
The funeral is tentatively set for
next Monday afternoon.
