Undated Glasgow KY newspaper. 
"MR. ED WILBORN ENDS OWN LIFE. Bids Friends Goodbye, Steps Into Room And Drank 
Carbolic Acid.

"Last Saturday, about noon, Mr. Ed Wilborn left the immense crowd in town, 
walked to a drug store and bought a bottle of carbolic acid, went to his home 
on Front street, and in his porch, in view of his wife and a number of friends, 
waved his hand and called out, "Goodbye, everybody, I'm going," stepped in the 
room and drank the contents of the bottle, and was dead in a few moments.

"Mr. Wilborn was fifty-four years of age, and leaves his wife, who as Miss Kate 
Smith. He also leaves two brothers, Mr. Warner Wilborn of Nobob, Mr. Emmett 
Wilborn of California. He was a son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Hulet Wilborn and 
was born and reared at Nobob.

"He had been living in Glasgow for many years and was a well-known horseman, 
and won a number of premiums in the fair, which he did not collect.

"Brief funeral services were held at the residence Monday morning, by Elder T. 
H. Alderson, and the body was then taken to White Grave yard near Sullphur 
Lick, where again brief services were held by Bro. Gaines and Alderson of this 
place, and the remains were then laid to rest beside those of his infant 
child."
