HANGS SELF
IN BARN.
Arthur Finnegan Takes His
Own Life While Tempo
rarily Insane.
BRooDED OYER SALE OF HIS STOCK RANCH
.las Known as Honest Fin"-came
Here From Ireland in 1876
Was Never Married.

Arthur Finnegan, known all over
the western part of the state as 'Hon-
est Fin," was discovered Sunday
morning hanging from beam in the
barn of his cousin on his ranch near
Pedro. In the pockets Of his vest were
found time bank certificates and cash
amounting to $50, 900, and an exami-
nation of his personal effects disclosed
the fact that he was worth about $75,-
600, in property checks and cash.
Dependency is supposed to have been
the cause which led to his taking his
own life, being temporarily insane at
the time.
Last week he sold his ranch and
stock on Ash Creek, east of the Chey-
enne river for approximately $4,000
to a Nebraska man. The sale made
him morose and to such an extent
friends prevailed upon the purchaser
to agree to redeem the place to Finne-
gan for a slight advance considera-
tion. And it was during the pending
of the agreement that the act Of self
destruction was committed.
Following the transfer of the prop
erty, Finnegan went to the home of
cousin near Pedro While there he
showed signs of insanity, constantly
brooding over what he fancied the
loss of his ranch and cattle, even
though it is said he received a good
round price for the property. During
the few days he remained with his
cousin he was seized with violent fits
of hysteria, when he would weep and
bemoan what he called his rash act
in selling his favorite herd of Her
fords. 1t was on this account friends
took up the effort to secure the re-
turn of the property. The interyen-
tion seemed to pacify and restore his
spirits, to the extent that he retired
Saturday evening feeling as usual.
Sunday morning, as he did not appear
for breakfast, seach revealed his life
less body hanging from beam, he
having left his bed some time during
the night. He went to the barn, re-
moved a halter from one of the man
gers, climbed upon scantling so he
could fasten one end of the halter
rope to the beam, the other around
his neck and drop. The vertebra Of
the neck was broken and it is supposed
he died instantly.
WAS AN EARLY SETTLER.
Finnegan came to this coun-
try from Ireland in 1876, and for
many years followed the life Of a cow
boy with varying success. During
these years he gained the reputation
a strictly honest and temperate man,
one who could be depended on to do
the square thing. He later located on
Alkali Creek, twenty miles north of
this city, and from there he settled
on the ranch disposed Of on Ash
Creek where he prospered. He was
we'll known and had friends anywhere
he went. lie was upright and honest
in all his dealings. lie was bache-
lor and is thought to have no relatives
in this country except the cousin.
