Later he closed out his connections with the firm of Pollard & Tuttle and for many years sold pianos throughout the northwest. Recently he wrote a textbook on primary work for musical instructors. Becoming ill at his home, 902 Morningside Avenue, some weeks ago, he was removed to the Samaritan hospital. He was 65 years old at the time of his death. The body is being held at Westcott's parlors, pending funeral arrangements.
