ENDS HIS LIFE
WITH A PISTOL.

About 12 80 o'clock last Wednesday
afternoon Allen Satterheld, a we'll
known and respected young man of
this city, shot himself through the
left breast with a thirty eight cali bre
pistol He was in a secondstory
room at his home when the deed was
committed, and was found in dying
condition few minutes after the shot
WAS fired. DR.. A. A. Simons was
summoned AMI arrived several min
utes before the wounded man drew
his last breath. The physician made
every effort to save his life, but it
was impossible, as the bullet had
passed through the body within few
inches of the heart and had lodged
in the spinal column. Mr.. Satterfeld
died about clock.
1t is believed by the family and his
friends that Mr. Satter6eld was tenn
porarly insane when he shot himself
and they can assign no direct cause
for the act. He had been in poor
health for sometime and this seemed
to have saddened him. On Tuesday
he acted strangely on several occa-
slons and his family thought he was
not at himself
He ate little at dinner Wednesday
and then went upstairs to his bed
room. The shot rang out a few min
utes later. Members of the family
rushed upstairs to his room. He was
sitting on the bed with the pistol in
his hand. Before he expired he told
them that ne was forced to commit
the act. Near him was found an en-
velope on which he had written 81
was forced to it, God bless the FAM.
ly. love them all. "
The news Of the killing was a
shocking surprise, as Satterheld was
known as a model young man. He
was self-sacriicing in the ex xtreme for
his invalid mother and several sisters
whom he resided with His brothers
and sisters are Tom and Luther
Satterheld, of this city; Chas. of
Herrin, Ill. Jas, of PinevIlle
Mrs. Lizzie. jackson, of California;
Mrs. Viola Jackson, and Misses Laura
and Rena Satterield, of this city.
Mr.. Sstterfeld was about thirty sew
en- years of age and unmarried For
several years he had been a member of
the local A. o. U. W. lodge.
The funeral was held from the resi-
dence at 2 O'Clock Friday afternoon
by Rev. S. o. Christian, of the Bap-
tist chnrcn. The A. o. U. w. lodge
then TOOK charge of the body and the
enterment was IN the Murray grave
yard.
