The cause of death was heart failure, which was brought on by flu contracted during the Spanish Influenza Epidemic of 1918.

Walter preached the Easter sermon at Asylum Hill Congregational Church on April 8, 1917.

  1. News of his death reached his parents via cablegram on November 12.
  2. There would be a memorial service for Walter at Asylum Hill Congregational Church on November 24, 1918.

“He was an assistant pastor of the Asylum Hill Congregational Church under Rev. Dr. Joseph H. Twichell, whose affection for his young assistant was like unto that which the aged Apostle Paul showed to the young man Timothy.”

Lahore was in British India at this point in time.  It is currently located in Pakistan.
