Husband Discovers The Tragedy
Mrs. Jennie Bucher, aged resident of New Carlisle, died last Friday evening at 6 o'clock as the result of a fall at the foot of her cellar steps. Her husband, W. L. Bucher, had gone to the barn and Mrs. Bucher went to the cellar for a can of fruit for supper.
When Mr. Bucher returned to the house, he missed Mrs. Bucher and when he began searching for her, found her at the foot of the cellar stairs. Mrs. Bucher was conscious and was able to walk upstairs with the aid of her husband.
A physician was summoned, but Mrs. Bucher died in a few minutes from shock and heart failure. It is thought she probably suffered a hemorrage of the brain.
