Crushed To Death

A Son of a Legislator Meets Death Under a Falling Tree

Hon. R.B. McClure the well known representative from Dawson was called home 
yesterday on a sad mission.  Mr. McClure received a message from Mr. Austin 
Law when he first entered the hall of representatives yesterday calling him 
home with the sad announcement that his seventeen year old son Charles had 
been killed while out hunting the night before by having a tree to fall upon 
him.

Young McClure was hunting with several friends and they cut down the tree to 
get an opossum when it fell upon him.

Much profound sympathy was felt among the members of the legislature yesterday 
for Mr. McClure when he learned of the untimely death of his son.
