insane FARMER IS
KILLED IN BATTLE
Runs Amuck When Officers At.
tempt to Serve Lunacy
Warrant on Him

MassiIlon, O., Oct. 4.-R-Fatally
wounded In q six hour gun battle
with five Trumbul county officers
near Warren, Charles Langdon, 80, q
farmer Of Mesopotamia, died this
morning in q hospital here.
Langdon ran amuck when one Of
the officers attempted to- serve q
lunacy warrant on him after he al
1egedly had threatened to kill q
neighbor. The farmer met the Of
ficers with a sawed-off shotgun in
hand and when the officer retreated
to get assistance, b~arricaded his
home.
Sheriff John G. Fisher and County
Detective Elmer Darling led the at
tack to drive Langdon from the
building. The besiegers threw tear
gas bombs and fired into the build
ing. while Langdon answered with his
shotgun.
After three hours, Langdon fled
into a nearby woods where the shoot
ing continued. One charge from his
gun struck Darling's b~ullet-proof vest,
and the farmer was aiming at an
other officer when Darling shot the
gun out Of his hands.
Despite fatal wounds, the farmer
fought hand-to-hand with the Of
ficers as they closed in on him. He
finally collapsed.
Langdon's family said he had been
acting queer" for six years.
