a .32 calibre revolver Saturday morn
ing about 1890 o'clock. The tragedy
ws enacted at his home in Fort Lawn,

He had, it is said, been suffering with
chills. and was also worrying over
financial troubles connected with the
bank, the exact nature of which has
not yet been given out. There are all
sorts of rumors and semi-official re-
ports going the rounds, but nothing
is yet definitely known.
The following statement has been
given out here by parties closely

married MISS Lillian Hughes u ~

Mr.. O'Shields was for several
years employed by the Peoples Bank
here. He went from Union to Lau-
rens, where he was for several years
bookkeeper for Watts mills. About
a year ago he went to Fort Lawn to
become the cashier of the Fort Lawn
Bank.
He was held in high esteem at all
these places and was always regard
ed as young man of the highest in
tegrity. He was an expert bookkeep-
er, and was untiring in his work. So
Ear as was ever known he has led an
exemplary life. During the year he
had been in Fort Lawn he succeeded
n winning the good will and conf
dence of all. He has for years been
a member of the Baptist church ana
his life was consistent with his pro-
fession.
Upon tablet found near his body,
was found note supposed to have
been signed by himself, and reads as
follows:
81 have not beat one soul out of a
penny, so help me God"
"H. B. O'Shields."
"P. S. would not lie facing
DEATH"
This was said to be in his own
handwriting and was pronounced by
several who saw it to be in his own
handwriting. 1t is understood there
are two or three other notes, but as
to their contents nothing defrr.e can
be learned.
1t is said the dead man carried $25,
900 in life insurance, but no accurate
information could be had as to the
exact amount.
He was to have moved to Union to
take a position with one of the lead
ing concerns Of this city on or about
December 1.
The public awaits with keen inter-
est the result of this investigation
being carried on by the bank exami-
ner, and startling disclosures are an
ticipated.
The body was brought to Jonesville
for burial late Monday afternoon and
in the presence of kindred and sym
pathetic friends was laid to rest. His
Heath was a great shock to every one
in this county, and many hearts are
made sad because of his untimely
taking off. He was Master Mason,
Royal Arch Mason, Knights of Py-
thias and Knights of Honor.
