W. R. VINT0N
ENDS LIFE BY
PISTOL SHOT
Well Known Former City Emp|oye
is Suicide; Was III
and DeSp0ndent.

William r. Vinton. aged so. shot
and killed himself this morning at 10
O'Clock at his home at S24 Third ave
nue.. Financial dependency and i'll
health were the probable causes of
his rash act.
Mr.. Vinton was exceedingly well
known In the city He has resided
here for several years, and for a long
period was employed by the city as a
driver and at work on the streets.
The shot which sent a bullet crash
ing through Vinton's head was heard
by his sons wife, Mrs. Albert Vinton.
She rushed into the house and found
him gasping on the floor of his bed
room, his head lying in pool OF
blod. Her husband was notified at
the Hampson Bros. K Valdez store.
He notified DR.. Plumb, and the Pear
son ambulance. but the suicide was
dead before they arrived He lived
probably Is minutes
Coroner Yunker was called short
ly afterwards. but the circumstances
were so plainly evidences OF suicide
that no inquest will be held.
Members of the family believe
that financial dependency and i'll
health drove Vinton to self destruc-
ton. For several months he has been
without employment and had peri
DDS of melancholy that alarmed his
son and daughter, with whom he
resided. Although they had not sus-
pected that he would end his life. his
relatives now recall instances which
showed that he had been brooding
over his troubles.
The deceased is survived by four
Vern, Albert R. and Raymond Viuton
reside here. and the fourth, Earl,
lives in Oklahoma. His brother. Earl
Vinton, is a city employe and is well
known.
James II. Rankin knew the Vim
tons several years ago. and the two
families were peculiarly associated.
William Yinton's parents lived In
Nicksburg, Miss. during the seige by
the Union army, and Mr.. Rankin's
father was a brigadier general in
charge of q portion of the besiegers.
When the city was about to fall,
and Vinton was lad of or years,
he went out one day to catch a colt
which his parents planned to use to
carry their household goods out of
the city at the first opportunity. AS
ne sought to catch the animal 1t turn
ed and kicked him, one hoof striking
him in the face and disfiguring him
for life. His nose was broken and
smashed flat against his face.
In the early eighties Mr.. Rankin
and his brother went to eastern Kan
sas to look after some property of
their fathers and met the Ninton
brothers. Several years ago when
Mr.. Rankin came to Grand Junction
he again made the acquaintance with
the family and employed both men
for several years.

claimed that the pier had broken off,
when as q matter of fact we found
that he had built his pier on the bed
