Lancaster daily intelligencer. (Lancaster, Pa.) 1864-1928: January 10, 1880
George Bear, of Strasburg, who it will be remembered was severely injured several
days ago, by being struck with fragments of a wooden plug which he had inserted in
the end of a wheel box and loaded the box with powder for the purpose of frightening
boys who were in the habit of teasing him, died at the county hospital last night,
and Coroner Mishler held an inquest on his remains this morning. The jury returned a
verdict that he "came to his death from delirium tremens, brought on by the
confinement following a gunshot injury received in the borough of Strasburg."
Deceased died possessed of some property, but has no relatives, it is said.
