Merritt Is Called by Death At Home Friday Former Clerk Served City For 32 Years; Rites Are Held Monday Death last Friday morning called one of Anaheim's most widely known men when Edward Bowne Merritt passed away at his home 121 S. Philadelphia street, following a brief illness. Had he lived until October 31 Merritt would have been 86 years of age. Funeral services were conducted Monday afternoon from Backs, Terry and Campbell chapel for the man who for 32 years was city clerk of Anaheim. Private interment in the family plot at Woodlawn cemetery in Santa Monica followed cremation. Although in failing health for the past five or six years Merritt was quite hearty until recently. Nearly every day he was seen walking the streets of the downtown business area where he gave a friendly greeting to his many friends and acquaintences. Born in Baltimore Merritt was born in Baltimore, Maryland, but lived in Chicago for some years before coming to Anaheim in 1893. He and his family resided at the old Hotel McDonnell was on the mound. The payoff came last night in the fourth inning after the Valencias had been almost helpless before the southpaw slants of Bob Fowler. Single in Fourth Floyd Montgomery opened the round with a bunt in front of the plate which he beat out. Kelly's lew throw eluded Bill Sweet and Montgomery went on to second. George Preble laid down a bunt for a sacrifice and Randy Bell came through with a bounce hit to second to score Montgomery. Leavitt Daley's infield out moved Bell to second from where he scored when Mal Higgins singled over third base. That was all of the Valencias' scoring although they threatened again in the fifth when they loaded the bases with only one away. Preble whiffed, however, and Bell grounded out, Strain to Sweet. McDonnell was never in serious trouble until the eighth canto, but found himself in a jam in that inning. Weiser and Schletzer both singled. Kelley forced Weiser at third when he drove a liner back to McDonnell. Shattux lofted to Wiseman, but Sweet drew a base on balls to load the sacks. Ed Daley crashed a scorcher to his brother, Leavitt, at shortstop and the latter made a great catch to retire the side. Good Support Anaheim gave McDonnell sterling support with Cliff Edmundson, Daley and Bell coming up with spectacular catches at various stages of the contest. Both teams were credited with seven hits, but the Ponies had three errors charged against them to one for Anaheim. Weiser, Schletzer and E. Daley each got two blows for the losers while Higgins hit safely twice for the Valencias. Finishing third at the close of the regular season, Anaheim captured the championship by beating Huntington Beach in the odd game of the first seven-game series and then conquering San Bernardino four games to one. The Ponies eliminated Santa Ana in the semifinal round of the Shaughnessy play-offs.
