Grieving over the death of his wife and suffering from shock which he received early in the spring when taken for a ride by a load of bandits who held up and robbed the Standard Oil filling station at the south edge of this city, are thought to be responsible for the death of Phillip Samuel BAKER, 29, well known young man of the Macy community. Baker died Monday evening at 7:40 at the City Hospital in Indianapolis following an illness of several months, death being due to Lukemia, a very peculiar disease.
The young man had been under observation of the Eli Lilly Drug Company at the City Hospital in Indianapolis, for the past five weeks. Hospital attaches said that this was their seventh case of Lukemia in the history of the hospital, and stated that the cause is either from a broken heart or a scare. Phillip Samuel, son of Phillip and Daisy (WAGONER) BAKER was born on July 10, 1902, at Wagoner’s Station, and most of his life had been spent in the Macy community. On June 26, 1926, he was married to Miss Phoebe BASH, who died on June 16, 1927. For several years he was employed at the Studebaker plant in South Bend and later at the Standard Oil filling station at the intersection of roads 25 and 31 in Rochester.
