He is survived his wife, the daughter and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Walter Ross; a grandson, Donald Dean Ross two brothers, Leslie S. of Denver, Colorado and Guy J. of Winfield.
Mr. Deal had spent his entire life in the Winfield community, en-
gaged in farming. He was a member of the Methodist church, the Odd Fellows lodge and the Winfield Lions Club of which he was a director.
Mr. and Mrs. Deal had gone to Denver the middle of October to visit
his brother, Leslie. He became ill en route on the train and soon
after arriving in Denver was taken to the hospital where he under-
went an operation. He seemed to be recovering normally and when their daughter, Mrs. Ross, who had gone to Denver upon word of her father's illness, returned home two weeks ago, it was understood that he was to be dismissed from the hospital late last week. Death was caused by a blood clot.
