Tragedy at Chambers.
David Dorothy of Chicago, a brother
of E. and J. E. Dorothy of Chambers,
met a tragic deatli over near Cham
bers Tuesday afternoon. His mangled
body was found by his brother, J. E.
Dorothy, in a grove between the
Dorothy place and W. B. Cooper’s. A
great hole was torn in the abdomen,
the left side of his face shot off and
ills throat hacked and gashed. A
blood stained knife and a shotgun
lay beside the body, one hand still
holding to tile gun. The ground was
stained with blood at two places
twelve feet apart, showing that the
accident or attempt upon his own life
was followed by a second struggle
where he fell.
Mr. Dorothy, in company with his
wife, a daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Searer, was visiting with relatives and
friends in and about Chambers and
was enjoying an outing fishing and
hunting. He was a nurse in a hos
pital at Chicago and stopped here on
liis way home from California where
he had been for the benefit of his
wife's health.
The day of the tragedy they had
been out for a hunt. Coming in Mrs.
Dorothy stopped at the home of her
parents while Mr. Dorothy went on
toward his brother’s place. The next
saw of him was when his brother was
riding through the grove going after
cattle and came upon the mangled re
mains by accident, ne had evidently
shot himself twice and cut his throat
with a pocket knife, Coroner Flynn
says, he having been called there to
hold an inquest. The coroner’s jury
returned a verdict of accidental shoot
ing. Mr. Dorothy and wife expected
to leave the next day for Chicago.
The remains were buried at Cham
bers after the inquest, which was
held Wednesday.
