KILLED By A REVOLVER sHor
Squire Keyes Of Ash Ridge Found Dead Near His
Hons With Bali, Ills Head.

The startling news reached Viola on
Thursday forenoon that Squire Keyes, 8
well to do farmer and familiar figure in
our VIII ge, had been found dead near
his home with a revolver bullet in his
brain. The particulars as we have been
abl Q to gather them are as follows, saws
the Viola Intelligencer:
Mr.. Keyes was the owner of a fine
farm on which there are two buildings,
a brick residence and an old building.
On Thursday morning at about o'clock
Mr.. Keyes and his hired man went to
the old building when they separated,
the man going after something needed
and Keyes remaining behind. About
ten minutes later the hired man heard a
shot and returning found Mr. Keyes
lying dead, supp osedly by his own hand,
although at this writing this is nos de-
tinitely known. An inquest on Thurs
day afternoon has not rendered a verdict
as we go to press.

dren. He has always been considered
well of and no reason can be assigned
for suicide, IL such 1t was. He was we'll
known and was in town on Wednesday,
taking dinner at Mabeys restaurant.
Those who talked with him say that he
appeared rather quiet and absent mind
cd, but his sudden ending is a great
shock to friends here.
1t Is reported that Mr.. Keyes was de-
spondent over losses sustained in patent
right deals.

A committee was appointed of seven
