Taking his gun he stated to his mother that he wanted to shoot a hawk. Shortly after leaving the house noise of the discharge was heard. Failing to return within a reasonable time the mother went to investigate and found the dead body of her son. Circumstances indicate the possibility of suicide, though the tragedy may have been accidental. No reason is known that might have induced the young man to deliberately take his own life.
