Lansing's 'Mr. Medicine' Is Heart Victim in Ford Hospital
Lansing's "Mr. Medicine" died Friday afternoon in Ford hospital, Detroit,
Dr. J. Earl McIntyre, 76, veteran local physician and widely known throughout state and national medical circles because of his long tenure as secretary and executive officer of the state board of registration in medicine, succumbed following an operation for an acute heart condition.
Stricken early this week, Dr. McIntyre entered Edward W. Sparrow hospital Tuesday but was removed to the Detroit hospital by ambulance Thursday when relatives were advised that highly specialized surgery was the only hope for his survival.
Started Here in 1910
The local doctor, who started practice here in 1910, had suffered a coronary attack in 1950 and somewhat curtailed his activities at that time. He continued to serve the state registration board, however, in the office he had held since 1928 until his retirement in 1955 because of the age limitation.
A native of Bettsville, O., Dr. McIntyre came to Lansing with his parents in early childhood. He was graduated from old Lansing high school and then took his college work and medical training at the Wayne university college of medicine, Detroit, interning at Harper hospital before opening his office here. He served as president of the Ingham County Medical society in 1925-26 just prior to his appointment to the state medical registration board. He also served as a member of the Lansing board of health and was first secretary of the Ingham County Tuberculosis hospital, now the Ingham Medical hospital. His experience and reputation in directing affairs of the registration board won him national renown and he was elected president of the Federation of State Medical Boards in 1941, and was made a member of the National Board of Medical Examiners.
A War Veteran
In addition to his professional activity, which also won him a 50-year service plaque from the Michigan State Medical society. Dr. McIntyre was active in local fraternal, church, veterans and social organizations. He was a 32nd degree Mason, a member of Elf Khurafeh shrine of Saginaw; of Capitol Lodge No. 66, F. & A. M.; Capitol Chapter No. 9, R. A. M., and Lansing Commandery No. 25, Knights Templar. He was a long-time member and past-chairman of the board of trustees of First Presbyterian church, and was a member of Country Club of Lansing and the Lansing City club.
Dr. McIntyre was a veteran of World War I, serving as an army medical officer from the time of the Mexican border trouble in 1916 until the war's end in 1918. He served as state commander of the United Mexican Border Veterans.
Surviving are the widow, Sally; one son, Dr. Jack McIntyre of Dearborn, and two grandchildren. The family home for many years has been at 600 S. Grand ave.
Funeral services will be held in the Estes-Leadley Colonial chapel at 11 a. m. Monday, with Dr. Seth C. Morrow, pastor of First Presbyterian church, officiating. Burial will be in Evergreen cemetery. Capitol Lodge No. 66 will give the Masonic service and the Commandery will provide an escort.

TWO George Town policemen on their way to the scene of the mysterious animal disease at Bridgenorth yesterday, were killed when the car in which they were travelling and a log truck collided on the East Tamar Highway.
Killed were the driver Sen Const Colin Chesterton (33), and Sgt Dennis Butcher (39) who was on his way to supervise police operations at the Bridgenorth farm.
The driver of the truck, Ronald Neil Kerrison, of Crowther St, Beaconsfield, was not injured in the crash, but was taken to hospital suffering severe shock.

Probable Brutal Murder - The Loss of the Schooner Sam Colt
Probable Brutal Murder - The Loss of the Schooner Sam Colt
City Intelligence.
PROBABLE BRUTAL MURDER
THE LOSS OF THE SCHOONER SAM COLT
Suspicious Circumstances as to the Death of the Captain and Mate.
We published several days ago a brief account furnished by telegraph, of the loss of the schooner Sam. Colt, Capt. Geo. Hilliard of Portland, while en route from New Jersey to New Bedford with a cargo of coal and spars. Further particulars have come to hand. The vessel was ashore on Nantucket Island, and some of the people of the island upon going to her, found only the crew - two deck hands and a colored cook - on board. These men stated that heavy storm was encountered and the vessel shoaled. A heavy sea was running at the time, and the schooner was tossed violently toward the beach, the waves washing over her, making it difficult for any to remain on board. The mate went up into the rigging, and while there a powerful wave washed him overboard. The captain went below for a moment, and on coming up started forward, but before he had gone far, was also washed from the deck, and no more was seen of him. This is the story told by the men, though they varied some in their statements. No one questioned the truth of what they said at this time, and they left Nantucket soon after, since which time, we understand, nothing has been heard from them. Who they were, or from what part of the country they came from, does not appear. A few day's subsequent to the finding of the vessel, the bodles of the captain and mate were found upon the beach at Nantucket, and marks of violence wore discovered. The bruises were of such a character that suspicions of foul play were at once excited, and since the arrival home of the remains, the friends of the deceased are very confident that the crew committed a double murder, and, to cover up their crime, ran the vessel ashore purposely and told the stories they did. The probability of this being true is strengthened by the fact that the vessel was over sixty miles off her course. Capt. Hilliard was an experienced navigator-had been over the route many times-and it could hardly be possible that the schooner should get so far away from the direct line. All the circumstances of the affair are so suspicious that efforts will undoubtedly be made to find the missing crew, and it is hoped the search may be successful. Cpt. Hilliard was a highly respected citizen of Portland, and the mate, George S. Banning, a young man twenty-eight years of age, resided in Haddam, whore he was much esteemed. The funerals of both were recently attended.
