Mr. Warner, it is believed, was slightly demented as his family and neighbors declare that he has not been acting like himself for several days past. He took the poison about 10 o'clock in the morning and his wife discovered the fact almost immediately. She at once sent to this city for Dr. F. M. Sawyer, who did everything possible to save the life but to no avail. Mr. Warner was 74 years old and leaves besides his wife one son, Frank Warner and one daughter, Mrs. Lydia Kizer. The funeral will be held from the Vanbuskirk schoolhouse near the Warner home Sunday morning at 10:30 o'clock, Rev. H. W. Kreigbaum, officiating. The remains will be laid to rest in the Van Buskirk cemetery.
