DEAD IN THE ROAD
Tragic Occurrence Near College View
THE CORPSE UNIDENTIFIED
An Unknown Resident of Lincoln Falls From A Cart While Inquiring For Work and Expires - Coroner Crim Gone To The Scene To Investigate
A Sudden Summons
About noon today intelligence was conveyed to Coroner Crim of a peculiarly sudden death that occurred a short time before near College View. A man living in the vicinty of the tragic occurrence brought the news. He related that a man riding in a two-wheeled cart had stopped in the road about a mile south of Union College to inquire of some parties he met as to where he was likely to find work. While he was talking he suddenly fell out of the cart, apparently dead. One of the parties to whom he was talking hastened away to secure a physician, but before he got back the man was dead. Coroner Crim's informant knew nothing of the man's identity, but had been informed that it was probably a young man named Wells, who drives a delivery wagon for the laundry back of Rawlins' Barn and Boards at 1211 "N" Street. Upon a visit to those places, however, the coroner learned that young Wells was at work for the laundry this forenoon.
Coroner Crims left for the locality at 1 o'clock to learn more concerning the manner of the unknown's death and try to fix his identity.
It was learned by telephone from College View that it was probably a case of heart disease.
At nearly 4 o'clock the coroner returned to the city with the remains, which were taken to W. G. Robests' undertaking rooms. A piece of paper found in his pocket bore the name of John Hussong. The directory gives the residence of John J. Hussong as 527 South Twenty Fourth Street.
