    _____________________

    An exceedingly sad tragedy was enacted on Sunday forenoon at the home of Edward Musselman, Weber St., east, whereby the husband and father took his lite. To accomplish his purpose, he used a revolver, and shot himself in the right temple while in bed.

    Mrs. Musselman had gone to attend service in the East End Mennonite Church and left her husband at home along with two bright little girls. They were playing about the house, and their father remained in bed in his chamber. His brother Fred, who boards there, was upstairs.

    He was startled by the report of a revolver being discharged and thinking it came from outside, ran downstairs. There he found the children frightened and on looking into his brother's room found him in bed, with the revolver beside his head and blood issuing from his ear.

    Fred rushed over to a neighbor, Mr. L. Schwartz, and Mr. W. E. Gallagher, who lives nearby, was also called in.

    Mr. Schwartz went to the church to bring Mrs. Musselman home and Dr. Lackner, corner was also sent for. He could, however, do nothing, as death was almost instantaneous.

    The revolver had been kept in a drawer n the secretary in the parlor, and the victim of his own rash act got up, put on his trousers and went into the adjoining room to get the weapon. On returning to his room he again disrobed and lay down. The revolver was found beside his head and the arms were at his side.

    The Coroner on investigating the circumstances decided that an inquest was not necessary.

    The deceased was a man about 28 years old, and a son of Mr. Jos. Musselman, of near Floradale.

    He was a furniture worker in the employ of the Krug Company. He was of an eccentric nature, and the Coroner was informed by the wife that her husband had in the past threatened to take his life and hers as well. No direct motive can be assigned for the terrible deed. The widow is prostrated with grief and the sympathy of the entire community goes out to her.

    The deceased was a member of the Canadian Foresters. The funeral will be held on Tuesday afternoon at Elmira.
