Bankers' Life Insurance Man Passes Away Yesterday Morning Not Thought to be Dangerously Ill. Funeral Not Arranged.

The relatives of W. H. Turbett of East Lyon street were shocked yesterday morning by the receipt of a telegram from Okoboji conveying the sad intelligence of his death there yesterday morning. He had been ill during the summer, but it was not thought that he was dangerously sick.

He was a popular attache of the office of the Bankers' Life Insurance association, and had numberless friends In Des Moines, where he spent thirty of his thirty-four years of life. He was born In Winterset.

He leaves a wife, who was Miss Ethel Logan of East Des Moines. His sisters are Mrs. W. L. Smith of 1016 West Ninth street; Mm. C. C. Braught of Seventeenth and East Walnut streets, and Mrs. E. B. Evans of 3410 West Nineteenth street. He was married six-years ago next month.
