Takes Overdose and Dies, Portage, July 25, Monday: The village of Benscreek was aroused this evening by the report of the sudden death of John Luther at that place. Luther was about 35 years of age and had resided in Benscreek all his life. Luther resided with his sister, Mrs. Wallace, and went out of the house and had gone only about 200 feet when he fell down. Assistance reached him and a doctor was sent for while he was carried to a store. Before much could be done the man was dead. At first reports of suicide were prevalent, but it was found later that death was caused by taking an overdose of medicine he had received from a doctor for the effects, it is alleged, of a spree. This seemed the most probable of any theory as to his death. Luther had been taking the medicine for a day or two and it had had no serious effects before. There were several stories afloat about suicide and Dr. Miller of Johnstown, the county coroner, was notified. It is not thought that he will hold an inquest. Luther is survived by Mrs. Wallace and two brothers. _________________________________________________________________ You live life beyond your PC.
