Self-Inflicted Gun Shot Wounds Fatal To Woodson Citizen
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Edwin Cade Dies by Own Hand in Yard of Harney Home; Was in Ill Health.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Edwin Cade, well known resident of the Woodson community, died shortly after noon Sunday from self-inflicted gunshot wounds. He shot himself at the home of his brother-in-law, Charles Harney. Cade lived in a small house in the yard of the Harney home.
Coroner E. O. Sample was notified and held an inquest at Woodson about 1:30 o'clock. The jury decided that Cade came to his death from self-inflicted wounds in the head, made with a .410 gauge shotgun. Testimony was given by Mrs. Ellen Devore, 625 West Lafayette avenue, who was visiting at the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Harney, and by Mrs. Fannie Harney. The two women found the body in the yard, where they were attracted by the report of the gun.
Mrs. Devore thought the report might be due to the blowing out of a tire on her car, and went into the yard to see about it. The body was found at the rear of the home. Mr. Cade had been at the Harney home earlier, and had been invited to eat dinner. He complained of ill health and did not want anything to eat.
Later a note was found, from which it was learned that ill health appeared to have been the motive for his act. The body was carried into the house by W. B. Rimbey, Lawrence Henry and Harry Smith, neighbors who came to the assistance of the family.
Testimony showed that the charge must have entered the head thru the mouth and came out behind the right ear. Members of the jury were H. G. Hagen, W. B. Rimbey, Lawrence and Charley M. Henry, C. L. Jones and Harry Smith.
Mr. Cade was born June 25, 1868, a son of William and Martha Cade. He was married to Miss Hattie Harney, who preceded him in death five years ago. He is survived by two brothers, Harry of Murrayville, and Ben of Jacksonville, and three sisters, Mrs. Lavina Early, Mrs. Maria Daniels and Mrs. Maggie West, all of Jacksonville.
Funeral services will be held at 2 o'clock this afternoon from the Woodson Christian church, with interment in Diamond Grove cemetery.
