MAN DROPS DEAD ON
LAGRANGE STREET

Police of Keene, N.H. reported to local authorities today that they
could find no relatives of William F. Coogan, 57-year-old former
Keene man, who dropped dead on Lagrange street last night.

Edward Bridges of 90 Appleton street and Raymond Sweat of 11 Lagrange
street found Coogan lying on a sidewalk about 8:45 p.m. They notified
police and the man was taken to St. Joseph's hospital where he was
pronounced dead upon arrival.

Medical Examiner Marshall L. Alling after listing the death as due to
natural causes, ordered the body turned over to Frank Fay, Gorham 
street funeral director.

IUn the pockets of the dead man, police found membership cards in the
Loyal Order of Moose and the Textile Workers Assn.  With these the
man's identity was determined.  Keene police, however, said that
Coogan no longer lived there and that acquaintances in the city said
he was living in Lowell.  Police were unable to determine the man's
place of residence.
