Following a short illness, Charles E. Atwell, aged 54, a well known resident of the community, died Sunday morning at 3:10 at his home, 299 Beade street. He was a life long resident of Plymouth, and had been employed for many years at the Lance No. 11 Colliery where he worked last Friday.

Mr. Atwell had been active in Salvation Army work and had served for many years as a Bible teacher for the Salvation Army.
