Strange Coincidence (?) of the last day of Arthur Charles Townley, organizer of the Non-Partisan League and North Dakota Senator (R) William Langer

Arthur Charles Townley, organizer of the Nonpartisan League, was killed in a car-farm truck collision near Makoti, ND, the late afternoon of Saturday, Nov. 7, 1959. Recounting Dick Dobson’s Prairie Perspectives column, published in the Minot Daily News on Saturday, Nov. 3, 1979: The day prior he (Townley) had paid a visit to John W. Scott of Gilby, ND, a prominent, politically conservative banker-farmer.
Townley had become an adherent of faith healing. Townley told Scott that he was keeping Langer alive through mental telepathy. Townley told Scott “I’m holding him. When you guys get ready and figure out the next senator, I’ll drop the old bastard through the hatch.”
The night following Townley’s fatal accident, William Langer died in his sleep.
