Lawlor, 43, political leader, sportsman and one of the most widely known residents of Lima, died at 7 a.m. Thursday at St. Rita's hospital, following an illness of one week. Death resulted from double pneumonia. Lawlor contracted a cold last Friday. Two days later he was taken to St. Rita's, where pneumonia developed. He became weaker and while attending physicians held hope for his recovery as late as midnight Wednesday, he sank into a semi-conscious state at 2:30 a.m. Thursday and did not regain consciousness until a few minutes before his death. WELL KNOWN ATHLETE Lawlor was born in Lima Sept. 30, 1884. He was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Henry J. Lawlor, of 626 N. Main-st. His father, a former state senator, preceded him in death. Lawlor received his primary education at St. Rose Catholic school and later attended St. Marys Institute, now Dayton University. At the age of 16, his athletic ability was recognized and at that time he was selected for a berth on the old Massillon professional football team. He also played with the Canton Bulldogs and other nationally known professional football teams. Lawlor was a crack baseball player and was backstop for the old Crescent team in Lima and later, the Futures. In later years, he served as umpire in semi-pro circles and for a short time was a professional umpire in the Three I league. He acted as polo referee in the northeast. CIVIC WORKER Lawlor was also recognized as a political leader and was active in this respect until his illness. He served as clerk of county commissioners for several years and was appointed county auditor to serve an unexpired term created by the death of the late John Douglass. He was affiliated with the state in the capacity of workshop inspector during the administration of Governor Cox. In recent years he was employed in the city sanitary sewer department and until his death he was a county sanitary sewer inspector. He was a member of St. Rose Catholic church, the Holy Name Society, Knights of Columbus, fourth degree and the Lima lodge of Elks and took an active part in all civic endeavors. Surviving are his mother, Mrs. Mary Lawlor, of 626 N. Main-st, one sister, Mrs. Thomas Connolly and two nephews, Henry J. Connolly and Eugene Connolly. Funeral arrangements are incomplete.
