Worry over financial difficulties was given as a motive Friday for the suicide of James Fant, 28-year-old farmer, who ended his life at his home on route 4, Oxford, late Thursday afternoon.
Taking his shotgun and telling the members of the household that he was going rabbit hunting, he walked out to the barn and emptied a charge of the gun into his body. He died instantly.
Mr. Fant lived with his sister-in-law, Mrs. M. Fant, on the Talladega county side of the Calhoun county line. Funeral services were held Friday afternoon at Bethlehem church, Rev. T. D. Stoveall officiating, with interment in the Bethlehem cemetery, Usrey in charge.
