EDENFIELD, John O.
The Brunswick News; Monday 30 December 1935; pg. 8 col. 2
JOHN O. EDENFIELD WALKS FROM WHARF—And An Hour Later His
Body is Found by Night Watchman.
A coroner's jury yesterday returned a verdict
that John O. Edenfield, 67, a resident of Brunswick practically all of his life,
came to his death Saturday night accidentally, but whether he was drowned after
he walked overboard near the foot of Monk street, or died before he reached the
water from shock or a heart attack, the jury was unable to determine.
The body of
Mr. Edenfield was found in about six feet of water an
hour after he walked from a narrow strip of wharf near the foot of the street. The body was found by
J.E. Yeomans, watchman at the naval stores wharves of the
Downing Company, who immediately notified Coroner J.D. Baldwin. The night
watchman did not see the man plunge from the wharf, but he told the coroner he
heard some one walking on the wharf and later he heard a noise in the water,
which he thought to have been some one in a small boat. When he later made his
rounds he went to the point from where the noise had come to investigate. He
saw the man in the water, only the upper part of his body being above water. He
was rescued as quickly as possible and efforts made to revive him, but it was
stated the man had been in the water for at least an hour, and after an
investigation Coroner Baldwin reached the conclusions he had been dead for that
length of time. The coroner, however, expressed the belief that Mr.
Edenfield
probably was dead before he struck the water. A jury was summoned Sunday and a
full investigation made.
Mr. Edenfield was at one time a fireman on the Atlantic Coast Line
railroad, but for many years he had been engaged in carpenter work. Funeral
services, conducted by the Rev. C.C. Davison, of the First Baptist church, were
held from the chapel of Baldwin & Edge at 3:30 o'clock this afternoon. The
pallbearers were Wm. Mahoney, H.F. duBignon,
Guy Walker, T.E. Davis,
Julian Gornto, J.E. Yeomans. Burial was in Palmetto cemetery.
