NEVIN McCLINTOCK

  CONFLUENCE - Nevin McClintock, 57, a farmer of Addison Twp., took his own life 
last Thursday at his home by firing a bullet from a .22-caliber rifle through 
his head.  He had been in failing health and despondent for some time.
  His wife went to the barn after breakfast to milk the cows.  When she returned 
to the house about 9 a.m., she found her husband's dead body lying on the floor 
where he had fallen after he had shot himself, with the gun lying beside him.
  Deputy Coroner C. S. Beck of Rockwood made an investigation and reported that 
McClintock evidently was killed by his own hand.
  McClintock is survived by his wife, Mrs. Dora McClintock, and eight children - 
Victor, Maurice, Evan, Hillery, Everett, Myron and Viola McClintock and Mrs. Ray 
Mitchell.
  Funeral services were under the direction of Mortician C. B. Humbert of 
Confluence, with burial in the Silbaugh Cemetery in Addison Twp.
