TRAGIC END TO HERRlck FIRE

Herrick, S. D., Sept. Especial to
The News: Miss Bessie NJ. Sinkular,
the milliner waiting trial on the
charge of starting the Herrick fire
which on the night of July 10 de-
stroyed the business block in the
heart Of the town, committed suicide
yesterday by shooting herself with a
shotgun. The charge entered her
heart and death was instantaneous.
Miss Sinkular ended her life at her
home on a Rosebud homestead a mile
south of Dallas.
Miss Sinkular had worried continu-
ally over the trial and the fear that
her family was being brought into dis
grace on her account constantly de-
pressed her spirits. This is the only
explanation for her rash act.
So far as known in Herrick Miss
Sinkular made no statement of any
kind before taking her life.
The dead woman was under $1,000
bonds to appear at the next term of
the circuit court for Gregory county
to stand trial on the charge of arson.
