a live wire receiving shock that rem
dered him helpless as he was seen to
lose his hold near where the wire
was loca ed. The voltage on the wire

sufficient to have caused his death
and those who witnessed tle acci
dent stated that it was their opinion
that the fall was responsible for his
unhappy end
There was great excitement on the
streets. as the accident occurred just
south of the Illinois Central railroad
tracks in the center Of the business
district of the town and great
crowd gathered at once. The dead
man was removed 10 Or. Hall White
aker's office in the hope that he
might be resusitated but all efforts
to revive him proved futile and the
lifeless body was taken 70 he home

The decedent was about "a years OF
age. He had been employed by the
electric light company about -four
years and was a tru st-worthy, reliable
man. respected by all who knew him.

wife was Frustrated BY the shock and
