Death of George Cordon, Jr.
Information of the mysterious death of George Cordon, Jr., formerly of Bancroft,
of late a taxicab driver in Kansas City, is meager. Cordon's lifeless body was
found in his rooms at 8 o'clock Friday morning. In the bed was found an empty
bottle that had contained chloroform.
Kansas City papers have not indicated whether or not an inquest was held.
Cordon's father, Arthur Cordon and his uncle, George Cordon, Sr., Bancroft, went
to the city and brought the body to the home of his father Saturday night. He
was to have been buried Sunday in the Ontario cemetery but a heavy rain
compelled a postponement until Monday afternoon.
Cordon was divorced by his wife at the September term of the district court at
Seneca. She secured the restoration of her maiden name, Irene GABBERT. She is
working in Kansas at this time.--Seneca Courier-Democrat.
