The first knowledge Mrs. Ladd had
of the death of her husband was her
little eight-year old daughter coming
into the millinery store of Mrs. Hard
ing, where she was shopping, and M
formed her that something dreadful
had happened at home, and she must
not come home till noon. Of eeurs c
Mrs. Ladd fastened home, and was
almost overcome with grief at what
she found. She was almost wild with
grief, and could not be consoled by
any one. She was out of her head
for some time. . sa4
VIM. Shumate was the last man that
was seen speaking to LADD. 1t APP
pears that Shumate met him as he was
going home from the ,postofice, and
merely passed the compliments of the
day Shumate has since gone to Kan
sas City, and could not be put on the
stand. 3 { re ia aa,43 2sE1s7osa
From all the testimony given in. it
could not be seen but what the Col.
had been in a sound mental condition
up to the time of his death. This is
a terrible thing 10 have q man commit.
sach deed, and without leaving any
farewell to his friends and family and
letting no one know his reason.
This can only be explained by his
legal adviser, Judge Forrist, and the
judge is not disposed to disclose what
was told him cdnidentially.
ANY further developments that may
happen will be made known to the
readers of the LEDGER. In orderto give
you the facts tonight, we, must

THE FOLLOWING IS A BRIEF BIOGRAPHY
- OF col. LADD: ~ IaaI
Col. LADD was born in Ohio, JAN,
8, 1913. When he died he was GA
years old. He had lived in Iowa,
Illinois and in Linn, Monroe and
Audrain counties, Missouri. He has
been married 8 times. He has had
10 children, 6 a living. He was elected
sheriff Of Audrain county in 60 and
again in 62, he was mayor Of Mexico
for two terms, he was nominated for
Legislature by Democrats, in '68,
but drew off on account of being dis
f%ranehised, though he had been a
constant Union man all through the
war. The Col. had led an adventur-
GUS life, having been a circus actor,
farmer, merchant, stone-mason,
surgeon, Capt. of a steamboat, edi-
tor, politician, &C., &c. Took an
excursion on his boat to see the
riots and witnessed the
shooting of Hiram and Joe Smith.
At one time he was very wealthy,
but his liberality and securities he
had favored his friends with, broke
him up. Col. LApp lived a sober
and industrious life, respected by all
an industrious, energetic man,
.H HE ~ :. a-r-H . .aE-
one Of the sharpest business men
ever in Mexico, and it is with deep
regret and unhounded sympathy for
his wife and children that we record
this, his sad end. a.tF .r
