Walter Negley Services Private
Private funeral services were held Friday afternoon for Walter W. Negley, San Antonio business man and rancher, who died Thursday. Negley was returned to San Antonio in an airplane ambulance earlier in the week after he was stricken ill at his ranch in Jeff Davis County. A lifelong resident of this city, Negley was prominently identified with San Antonio's business and civic development.

William Walter Negley, (1895–1932) also attended Phillips Exeter Academy (class of 1912) like his brother Richard, and graduated from Yale in 1916. He joined the army in 1917 and enrolled in the first officers training camp at Camp Bullis, San Antonio. He spent time in France as a captain and staff munitions officer. Walter, as he was known, married Roxana Gage in 1924 and lived on a ranch in Fort Davis, Texas. He died of a burst appendix in 1932.
