Edward E. ESTEY, a well known surveyor, died suddenly this morn. Mr. Estey, who was about 61 years of age, left his boarding house on Germain St. before 8 o'clock and got into a car going to Indiantown, where he had some business to contract. In the same car were Wm BOWDEN, D.J. DRISCOLL and William McMILLAN. Nothing was noticed wrong with Mr. Estey until the car was nearing Indiantown, when he was observed to lean heavily on Mr. McMillan, his head resting on his shoulder. Seeing he was ill some of the gentlemen named gently rubbed the suffering man, the car was stopped and the conductor got a piece of ice which was applied to the temples and forehead. He soon revived and sat up again. The conductor said he would tak him back as far as Dr. Christie's office and the others left him sitting up at the end of the car. When the car started on the return journey he was apparently all right, but near the corner of Douglas Ave. people on the car noticed that he was unconscious and the conductor decided to take him into Dr. Robert's office. The doctor came to the door and only needed a glance for him to tell that Mr. Estey was dead. He must have died in the car without a struggle. The body was placed on the sidewalk and covered until Coroner Berryman arrived and gave permission for its removal to Mr. Case's house on Germain St., where the deceased boarded. The coroner did not consider an inquest necessary. The deceased was a married man. His wife is now living in New York. He was a brother of Charles ESTEY of this city.
