Killed at Barnesboro 

George Sedlack, a well-to-do Slavish merchant and a 
respected citizen of Barnesboro, met a sudden death Tuesday 
afternoon about 2:15 o'clock.  Mr. Sedlack was having a 
number of improvements made to his home and he had ascended 
to the scaffolding at the top of the house to ascertain how 
the work was progressing.

One of the boards gave way and he was precipitated twenty-
five feet to a pile of stones in the alley below. The top 
of his head was crushed in as though it were an egg shell 
and he died instantly.

Mr. Sedlack was about forty years of age and leaves a wife 
and four children.
