WILSON, R. C.
(31 Dec 1929, Elk City Newspaper, Elk City, Beckham Co, OK):
HAMMON SUICIDE VICTIM SHIPPED
The body of R. C. Wilson, 28, suicide victim, who lived nine and a half
miles northwest of Hammon was shipped to El Reno late yesterday for
burial, according to word received here today.
Mr. Wilson's body was found hanging in the doorway of his cellar Sunday
afternoon after relatives had noticed his extended absence and began
hunting for him.  Cause for this action is a puzzle to members of the
family.  No hint of financial troubles or family difficulties was
discerned by Hammon officials.
Mr. Wilson moved with his wife to Hammon about a year ago from Chickasha. 
They had lived on the farm southwest of the city since that time.  Mr.
Wilson is survived only by his widow.
