Mayor William J. Gaynor Dead Aboard Ship in Europe
William J. Gaynor died of heart disease aboard a steamship en route from London after a three week trip in Europe. Flags in New York were at half mast as the city mourned. Gaynor, born in Whitestown New York in 1850, rose to prominence as a lawyer and reformer who fought political rings and secured convictions in major cases. He served as mayor from 1909 after a career in law and public service, surviving a 1910 shooting by a disappointed office seeker.
