----------
Son Stricken, Critical After Death of Mother
----------
Word was received here today of the death of a former local resident in
California, and the serious illness of her son who was stricken with a heart
attack following her death.
Mrs. Margaret [Land] Schofield, who lived in Shelbyville for many
years in the early part of her life, died in Culver City, California, following
an extended illness. She formerly was Mrs. William Wintin
and her husband
was a blacksmith here for many years.
Her son is William (Billy) Wintin, mechanical superintendent of
The
Greensburg News, who is in critical condition at Temple Hospital in Los Angeles.
He went to California to be with his mother before her death, and suffered a
heart attack while there.
Mrs. Schofield was remarried after the death of her first husband.
The late Ray
Wintin, Shelbyville insurance man, also was her son. A daughter lives at
Culver City, where funeral services and burial rites were held.
