Such, 400 Fifth, was found at her home early Tuesday afternoon, February 9, by Mrs. James Wallner, who has an apartment in the Such residence. She had been dead all night, death being caused presumably from a heart attack. Mrs. Such had been ill with the flu for several days but was able to be up on Monday. About 9 o'clock Monday night, Mrs. Such came downstairs and called to Mrs. Wallner that she didn't feel very good and couldn't sleep, so told her she would listen to the radio for a while. Mrs. Wallner did not see Mrs. Such in the morning. After finishing lunch about 1:30 o'clock in the afternoon, Mrs. Wallner went into Mrs. Such's apartment to see how she was feeling and found her on her knees on the living room floor with her arm thrown up in a chair. Mrs. Wallner immediately phoned Milton Reynaud, a close friend of the family, who summoned Dr. J.M. Russell, Mrs. Such's physician. Dr. Russell pronounced Mrs. Such dead, due to a heart attack. Mrs. Such evidently turned off the radio, suffered a heart attack and grasped for a chair as she fell to the floor. Coroner F.C. Callaway was called and, after giving a heart attack as the cause of death, said it would not be necessary to hold an inquest. She had been dead since about 10 or 11 o'clock Monday night.
