After making an heroic but unsuc
cessful fight for life during the woek
Edwin T. McNaultv of New York City
died at midnight Thursday night at
tho Sacred Haert hospital at the ago
of about 27 years, and last night
his body was started on Its long
Journey by train for the nation's me
tropolis, accompanied by an older
brother, and a brother-in-law, D. H.
llockofeller, who are also from New
York.
Tho case has aroused much sym
pathy among the few pcoplo who
know of It. The three men were
strangers in the city until their arri
val ond had been covering the west
and Pacific coast territory in two
largo automobiles, representing tho
Guardian Food compuny. A short
tinio ago another brothor of tho dead
man, who was a member of the party
becamo quite ill and had to tako tho
train back to New York.
Tho other three contlnuod on tho
trip, but on route in the autos from
Socramonto to Portland, Edwin Mc-
Naughty became very ill with a bad
cold and his condition became steadi
ly worse as they hastened on to Med
ford, whore ho was at once taken to
tho Sacred Heart hospital. There tho
attending physician diagnosed tho
caso as ono of plourol pneumonia and
vory serious. Everything that money
and medical science could do was pro
vided for tho sick man, but to no
avail.
The surviving brother and Mr.
Rockefeller, who Is said to bo a dis
tant relative of John D. Rockefeller,
decided to leave the two autos here
and depart with tho body by train
for Now York, from which city they
will return to Medford In 30 days,
