Drew Willingham, aged about thir-
ty years and the son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Cape Willingham, of Nueva Casas
Grandes, Chihuahua. Mexico. took his
own life near Casas Grandes the first
of the week by shooting himself with
a rifle He was undoubtedly Temporal
rily insane when he committed the
act
The terrible news came in a letter
to Mrs. Skipwith from friends at
Casas Grandes. The letter was writ
ten November IA, and the funeral had
occurred the day before that. The
shooting probably occurred last Satur
day OF Sunday
The unfortunate young man had
been employed to keep up the fences
of a large ranching company there
and was living seven miles from Cas-
as Grandes. He was living with a
Mexican man and the latter's wife
who did the cooking for them. On
the fatal evening Willingham ate his
supper. and after writing in his note
book, went into his room and closed
the door. The Mexicans soon heard
a report, and when they entered the
room he was falling to the floor
breathing his last. This was the re
port of the Mexicans and it is credited
as being true Willingham was in the
insane asylum at Las Vegas for two
years. five years ago, and he had
told his brother that if he ever felt
insanity coming on him again, he
would kill himself. Every year at
this time of the year he was troubled
with his mental faculties.
Cape Willingham formerly owned
the Turkey Tracks ranch at Seven
Rivers, now Lakewood. He and family
also formerly lived at Hagerman and
his son, Drew, was one of the mos
popular boys who ever attended the
Military Institute. The family went
to Old Mexico about a year ago. Be
sides a father and mother, Drew Will
lingham leaves one brother, Harry,
and three sisters, Mrs. Baird, Miss
Grace and Mrs. Tom Waller, all of
Lakewood. He also leaves a little
flve-year-old son, Clarence, and his
wife lives at FL Paso. The brother
was at the funeral but the sisters
were unable to be present. Mrs
Baird and Miss Willingham were on
their way to Casas Grandes when
the shooting occurred and arrived 3
hours late for the funeral. His faith
er is now in the Sierra Madre noun
tains prospecting ami does not know
of the tragedy.
The Willinghams came to New Mex
leo about ten years ago from Texas
They have many friends in Roswell
and Chaves county who deeply regrei
