TRAGIC DEATH

Clay Hersberger was found dead In his
home on Ellemeham mountain about
nine miles west of Orovlle, Tuesday
evening by relatives. Death was caused
by IA bullet from high power 22 Savage
rifle. which entered at the left side of
the right eye and blew away the top of
the head. From the position of the body
and the manner in which the gun was
held by the dead man, it is thought that
the shot was fired accidentally while
Hersberger was in the act of cleaning or
preparing to clean the rifle.
Relatives in the neighborhood not hav-
ing seen Hershberger throughout Tues
day, late that evening went to his home
to see II he was la and upon entering
and striking a match discovered the body
of the dead man lying on his bed, his
feet crossed and the rifle grasped in both
hands, one hand just below the muzzle
and the other holding the barrel a few
inches above the magazine. The walls
of the room and the bed were covered
with blood and pieces of the skull had
been blown into the wall back of the bed
by the force of the explosion. The room
looked like a shambles.
Undertaken L. w. Barnes of Oroville,
was immediately called on the telephone,
but he was unable to go to the place until
