Sheriff Marvin Bruhn, who received a call shortly after midnight, learned that Stahl and his business partner, William Murray, were driving in separate cars to Goose Lake. Murray stopped en route and reached the scene shortly after the accident. Although the Stahl car had crashed through a fence and rolled over several times for a distance of 216 feet, the lights continued to burn, and were seen in the field by passing motorists. Coroner L.O. Riggert said Sunday afternoon no inquest is planned. The body is in the Pope Funeral Home.

Mr. Stahl, who served in France and Germany with an engineering outfit in the late war, was born in Manning, Iowa, October 28, 1918, son of Mr. and Mrs. Ferdinand Marcus and Amanda Kathryn (Stuhr) Stahl.

He married Miss Millicent Snyder in Denison, Iowa, and the family came here five years ago. The widow; his mother, Mrs. Al Morin, Longview, Washington; six children, Mary, Allen, Tommy, Jolee, Jon, and Sherry; two brothers, Leon Stahl, Clinton, and Donald, in the Navy in California, and a sister, Mrs. Joan Davis, Centerville, Iowa, survive.

Burial was in Oakland Cemetery, Clinton, Iowa.
