Powder River Examiner; 11 Oct 1920
Dies Suddenly While Driving Some Sheep

  Charles Mankameyer, 63, a sheepman of the Selway section, died suddenly 
Wednesday while driving some sheep along the road near his home.
  Coroner Charles J. James and Undersheriff W.H. Goodspeed were called from 
Broadus and after a careful examination the coroner announced that death was 
caused by a heart attack.
  Just before his death, he had talked with a neighbor and had asked him to 
help him with a sick sheep, and when the man returned in a few minutes saw the 
horse without a rider and Mankameyer lying on the ground lifeless.
  As there were no marks of violence on the body or no dirt of any kind on the 
clothing that would indicate a fall, Dr. James concluded that Mr. Mankameyer 
had felt a heart attack coming on and had dismounted and laid down, death 
coming almost immediately afterward.
  The deceased leaves a widow and two children, Emma and Willie, who are 
attending school in Miles City.  It is expected that burial will take place at 
Sheridan, Wyo., as the family had resided there at times.
  A highly respected man and an esteemed neighbor was Mr. Mankameyer.
