Alexander Dowling

He was one of the founders of the Mutual Trust and Deposit Company in that city, of which institution he was president at the time of his death.

They had two surviving children, Harry M. Dowling, who is engaged in the practice of law in Indianapolis, and Mrs. Charles Coffin, of that city.

[2] In late November 1917, after having been engaged in the trial of a case in the Floyd Circuit Court in New Albany, Dowling went for lunch to his home, where he was stricken with a heart attack.

[2] Two weeks after his heart attack, Dowling was found dead in his office in the New Albany National Bank building, at Pearl and Market streets, at 9:30 in the morning.

Dowling's daughter, who had been visiting her father for two weeks, departed for her home in Indianapolis only an hour before his death.
