Mrs Sophia Frantz, who for a number of years has resided near Whitney, aged about 60 years, committed suicide at the home of her daughter, Mrs Ward Cook, at Mildred last Thursday afternoon by hanging. Mrs Frantz had been visiting her daughter and was seen by her in the afternoon, but when she returned home from the store she found her mother dead. She had tied her feet together with a stocking and placed a handkerchief over her mouth. She had tied one end of the rope to the top of the banisters and had supposedly slid of the piano.
H W Stoudt, coroner, was immediately notified, and went to Mildred but after making inquiries decided that an inquest was not necessary.
Mrs Frantz had been in bad health for a number of years, being confined in an asylum from August 1913 to February, 114. On two occasions previous to this she has attempted to destroy herself.
Funeral services were held at Mildred Saturday, and the body laid to rest in the Mildred Cemetery.
She leaves a husband and two children to mourn her death, and these have the deepest sympathy of all who know them.
