The Death of Will Hyter.

From the Cleo. Ok, Journal
we take the following particulars of
the death of VIII Hyter brother of
Mrs. Ed Williamson of thesouth side,
and who formerly lived in this local
ity.
Sunday morning the community was
greatly shocked TO learn that VIII Hyter
WAS dead as the result OF wound re-
| ceiyed IL the head 'as the result OF the
| explosion OF shot gun. how the
shooting occurred is mystery, and rs
no one saw the occurrence, eternity
alone can revea! how it happened.
Circu stances would in measure
polrt to a self Inflicted death, but those
who know him best WI not accept that
-beory, as there are good reasons for be-
llevlCg the affair Was purely accidental.
Mr.. Hyter has been sckly the greater
part of his life, having been great suf-
| ferer from the ravages of disease for the
| past eighteen years, and until the last
! few years has been practically an invalid
| yet recently he has oeen much stronger
and was able to do light work about the
| place and seemed ia the best of spirits
In fact the arrangements were all made
for visit at their olo home in Iowa.
He was very cheerful Sunday morning
and if the deed was premeditated he
showed no outward signs. A few days
1efoTe he loaded some shells to make
way with some Troublesome dogs and
that morning was working with the gun.
He had just stepped outside the house
when the shot was heard, and rushing
outside the family found him, the gun
still in his hand, where he had fallen
dead, the top part of his head being lit
orally blown away.
The funeral services were held at
the home Monday, Rev. Jones officiating
and the body laid to rest in the Cedar
cemetery northeast of town.
William 2. Hyter was born in Bloom
field, Davis county, Iowa, October l5,
1863. died June 26, 1904 aged 50 years.
He has been IN this county with his
mother and family for several years, and
was we'll liked by all who knew him.
He leaves mother and two brothers
here, and a number of relatives. The
Journal and it's readers extend con-
dolence to the bereaved.
