Article dated: Columbus Journal, April 24, 1907 SCHWEITZER--Ernst Schweitzer, a young man living on August Boettcher's farm west of Silver Creek, committed suicide last Friday morning by hanging himself in the barn. He was married about six weeks ago, and was getting nicely settled when he met with some bad luck, first setting out a prairie fire that got away from him and burned up $100 worth of hay, and then his team ran away with a disc, cutting one of them so badly that it had to be killed. These misfortunes probably affected his mind temporarily and caused him to take his life. Mr. Schwitzer worked for Wm. Ernst, near Duncan, for a number of years, and was considered a steady young man. The funeral was held Saturday and he was buried in the Clarks cemetery.
