Article Text: CHARLES FRY, A TRACTION EMPLOYEE, ENDS HIS LIFE. Deed Committed at His Home at Alexandersville -- Motive Shrouded In Mystery. With the muzzle of a loaded 38-calibre revolver, pressed against his right temple, CHARLES FRY, an employee of the Southern Ohio Traction company, committed suicide yesterday morning by firing a bullet into his brain. The dead was committed at the home of the victim at Alexandersville. The motive for the deed is unknown. FRY married a widow and the mother of three children. The family moved from Middletown to Alexandersville about three weeks ago. Prior to the removal to Alexandersville, FRY was employed as night engineer in the power house at Trenton. He was similiarly employed in the power house at Dwyer's station. After quitting work at 7 yesterday morning, instead of returning home he came to Dayton and made some purchases. He reached home about 9:30 in the morning. According to statements, FRY, after entering the house, went to an upstairs room and almost immediately fired the fatal shot. The report of the pistol alarmed MRS. FRY who hurried upstairs and, on entering the bed room, found her husband lying on the floor with blood flowing from a temple wound. The man was in semi-conscious condition and yet clutched in his right hand the fatal weapon. Alarmed by the cries of MRS. FRY and her calls for help, neighbors hurried to the scene and DR. J.L. CARTER of West Carrollton was summoned. The man, however, was past all human help. He lingered in a semi-conscious condidtion about an hour, when he died. Dr. H.H. HATCHER, coroner, was notified. The deceased was 24 years old. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ OH-Old-News ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ NewspaperAbstracts.com - Finding our ancestors in the news! TM http://www.NewspaperAbstracts.com
