Despondent Over Love Affairs the
Cause-Two Homes Saddened
by Rash Act- Dies
in Short Time Death in its most hideous form has again invaded the home of a Van Wert family, the victim being Richard E. Feigert who took his own life about 6:45 o'clock last evening, by drinking a quantity of carbolic acid and firing a shot from a 32-calibre Ivor-Smith revolver into his head. The suicide was committed in the door yard of the Angevine home, 308 North Wall street.
Mr. Feigert, who had been employed as a salesman at the shoe store of Leeson & Stanley, left there at his usual time for start- ing for home, after bidding his associate salesmen, Ora Friesner and Cash Deniston, good-night. He went west on Main street, meeting Miss Eva Angevine, with whom he had been keeping company for two years, who is employed In the office of Dr. R. J. Morgan, and walked home with her. Arriving at the Angevine home, the young couple walked around the north side of the house and engaged in conversation for about half au hour, when Miss Angevine went into the house and Feigert turned to leave. A few moments later, and shortly after Miss Angevine had taken off her wraps, the family was startled by the report of a pistol. Mrs. Angevine and one of the daughters went to the front door, at the west end of the house, and saw young Feigert lying just off the porch step, grasping in his left hand a four-ounce vial and in his right hand a smoking revolver. Mr. Angevine was, at the time the shot was fired, a the pump in the rear of the house, getting a drink of water. Hearing the screams of the women he walked around the north wing of the house, where he came upon Feigert apparently in the death agony. He hastened to the telephone to summon assistance. About the same time Carl Brown, F. V. Wilson and Fred Spayd, who were at the C. N. freight office just across the street and had heard the pistol shot, reached the scene of the tragedy. A few moments later Policeman Harry Hay and Dr. C. A. Files arrived. Feigert was still living, and he was borne into the Angevine home and laid, on a couch. Then came Dr. Fleming, County Coroner, and Dr. R. J, Morgan (continued)
