Arthur Warrender, for more than twenty-five years a lake captain on the great lakes, suffered a stroke of apoplexy Saturday afternoon while engaged in supervising the work of loading a sand scow about five miles from the Milwaukee harbor, from which he died at 4:50 o'clock in Emergency hospital. Capt. Warrender was 64 years old and single. Capt. Warrender became very sud- denly ill shortly after noon, according to the report given the hospital at- tendents, despite the fact that he ap- peared in his usual good health when he reported for duty Saturday morning at the dock of the Milwaukee Sand and Gravel company, by whom he was employed. Dies at Hospital Because of his illness the scow was returned to the dock at the foot of Erie street, where Capt. Warrender was removed to the police ambulance and rushed to Emergency hospital. He lived but one hour after entering the hospital. Capt. Warrender was one of the best known captains in Milwaukee and was prominent in marine circles. He had been a resident of this city for more than thirty-five years, having come here from England where he was born, and for many years had made his home with his sister, Mrs. Elizabeth Willis, 483 Maryland Avenue. Rose From a Sailor He had sailed the lakes ever since he arrived in Milwaukee, and has con- tinaully been in the employ of the Milwaukee Sand and Gravel company where he rose from the ranks of a sailor to that of captain. He is survived by two sisters, Mrs. Willis and Mrs. Lucy Thompson, and one brother, Benjamin Warrender of Milwaukee. Funeral arrangements have not been completed. ===========================================================================
