A SUICIDE IN COAL VALLEY.
Theodore Busch Ends His Trouble by Put
ting Bullet i'm His Head.

Theodore Busch suicided at his
home in Coal Valley about 1880 this
morning, putting Il bullet from Il 81
calibre revolver into the center of his
forehead.
Busch's body was found in his bed
room. He had first covered his head
with comforter before firing the pis-
tol, in order to deaden the report. He
was i3 years of age, and leaves wife
and three children, daughter and
two sons. Busch located in Coal
Valley last March, coming from
Moline, and started meat
market, having purchased the
HANSON property. He recently dis
covered that there was an incum-
brance on the property in the form of
a $500 mortgage, fact he was not
aware of when he bought it. This
disturbed his peace of mind consid-
erablv and is believed to have been
the cause of his tragic act.
An inquest was held this afternoon
by Coroner Eckhart, the verdict of
the jury being that Busch met death
at his own hands.
