HEADED COAL COMPANY
Funeral Services Will Be Held Sunday at Home on Lincoln Ave.
Frank Irving Cornwell of the coal firm of Cornwell & Couper died suddenly at an early hour this morning at a local hospital after an illness of three days.
Mr. Cornwell was the only son of Henry Ambrose Cornwell and Phoebe MacArthur Cornwell, one of the pioneer families of this county. With the exception of a few years, he had made Ann Arbor his home his entire life, sharing prominently in its business and social life.
The coal, wood and coke business established by Mr. Cornwell in this city was one of the largest firms in Ann Arbor, and its offices occupied a part of the Cornwell building on the northeast corner of North Fourth Ave and Huron St.
Mr. Cornwell was a member of the Masonic order, Psi Upsilon fraternity, Ann Arbor lodge of B. P. O. Elks, Ann Arbor Chamber of Commerce, Barton Hills Country club and the Ann Arbor Golf and Outing Club.
He is survived by the widow, Laura Jean; a daughter, Phoebe Jean; and a sister, Mrs. Samuel Stewart Bradley of New York City.
Funeral services will be held at 3 o'clock Sunday afternoon at the residence at 1011 Lincoln Ave. Rev. Henry Lewis, rector of St. Andrew's Episcopal church and Dr. Henry Tatlock, rector-emeritus of St. Andrew's church, will officiate. Burial will be in Forest Hill cemetery.
