Tragic Death OF Mr.. j. N. Shugert.

Jefferson M. Shugert, a well-known
business man of Charlestown, shot and
killed himself last Friday morning in
the Office of his tannery. 1t is not
positively known whether the shoot
ing was accidental or done with sui
cidal intent. A lad about nine years
old, son of Mr.. Boxwell, butcher,
had gone to the office to see Mr.
Shugert, and states that he was stand
ing at the Office door talking with Mr..
Shugert, who was sitting by the stove
with a revolver in his hands, and that
while handling it the revolver was
discharged. The boy was frightened
and ran away. The ball entered Mr..
Shugert's right temple, and he fell to
the floor dead. William Roberts, an
employee, who was in room over the
Office, heard the shot and ran down,
calling Mr.. Morris, another employee,
and when they reached Mr.. Shugert
he was dead. Physicians were called,
but could do nothing. An inquest
was deemed unnecessary. A consider
able sensation was created when the
shooting became known. Mr.. Shugert
was on the street only few minutes
before, and spoke to several friends.
For several days he had been unwell
and complained of a severe pain In the
TOP of his head and was in melan-
choly mood. His family believes the
occurrence was an accident. He had
conducted a tannery for many years
in that place, and had many friends.
He was 3S years old, unmarried, and
leaves six brothers and three sisters.
