Redwood City Democrat

July 26, 1917

Old employee of Alaska Codfish Co, dies suddenly.

George Lynch, an employee of the Alaska Codfish Company in this city for a number of years, was found dead in his bed at the plant Monday morning. An autopsy conducted by Dr. F. S. Gregory at the Redwood City Undertaking parlors where the remains were taken showed that the deceased died from heart trouble. A coroner’s jury brought in a verdict to that effect Saturday morning.
