M. M. SULLIVAN DEAD.
Business Reverses Causes Him to
Take His Own Life.
M. M. Sullivan, who committed sui
cide here Saturday by shooting him
self through the heart, was formerly
a well known merchant of O’Neill,
Nebr. His son, Matthew Sullivan of
Butte, Mont., came to arrange for the
burial.
Sullivan had been well-to-do at one
time, but bad lost his fortune in
wheat speculation. He had been en
deavoring to secure work as a com
mercial salesman, but had been un
successful. Despondent and almost
without funds, he went to his room in
a lodging house Saturday and after
drinking the contents of a two-quart
measure of milk which he had pur
chased, shot himself through the
heart dying Instantly.
He had purchased the revolver sev
eral days ago, saying to the pawn
broker who sold it that it would prob
ably answer his purpose very well.
The above notice, under a Salt Lake
Oity, Utah, date line appeared in the
daily papers last Monday. Relatives
here had notice Saturday night that
he was dead but the cause of bis
(joeih moo ijnbnQttn Mjjfr.Jl t-S *bOV0
notice was seen in Monday evening
Omaha papers. Mr. Sullivan was en
gaged in the merchantile business in
this cit / for a number of years and at
one time owned the largest store in
western Nebraska and did an annual
business in excess of tlOO,000 00.
When the business (depression, inci
dent to the drouth period of the early
nineties,reached^thls section he failed
in business. He afterward opened up
a lltttle business here and conducted
it for a couple of years and also oper
ated a store at Spaulding, Nebr. He
went west for a time after closing out
his business here and returned to
O’Neill some six years ago when he
again opened up a shoe store. He
prospered and soon put in a general
stock which he conducted for some
four years. A year ago last fall he be
came heavily Involved and left the
county. The stock was taken posses
sion of by creditors and sold for their
benefit. The next beard of Mr. Sul
livan was a year ago this summer
when the editor reoelved a card from
him, written from Spokane, Wash.,
which announced his marriage. Bis
whereabouts was unknown to many
of his friends here when the news
reached the city that he was deed at
Salt Lake Oity. We understand that
the remains were buried in Salt Lake
last Monday. Mike Sullivan was a
loveable fellow in many ways and his
old time acquaintances here, who
knew him when the crown of a suc
cessful business career rested upon his
shoulders, regret sincerely that his
misfortunes became so unbearable
that he took his own life. These
friends will prefer to remember him
as he was in the heyday of bis Isucoess
when he was known as "Yankee11
Sullivan, when business trials and
troubles were unknown and undream
ed of.
Neligh Boosters Visit O'Neill.
Twenty-four automobiles gaily deo
orated and loaded with 104 citizens of
Neligh arrived in this city last Tues
day afternoon at 12:45. They were
the Neligh Boosters and were out on
an advertising trip advertising their
Chautauqua and race meet which
will be held in that city the coming
month. The boosters were met just
outside the city limits by Mayor Blg
lin and Judge Harrington, president
of the O’Neill race meet, and were es
corted around >the city and to the
Evans Hotel where arrangements had
been made by the O’Neil! Commercial
Club to supply the wants of the visit
ors. After dinner the band stirred
things up by rendering several splen
did selections. After the wants of the
inner man had been satisfied and the
band had rendered a popular selection
C. L. Wattles, president of the Neligh
Racing Association and one of Ne
ligh’s foremost citizens, delivered an
address stating the purpose of the
Booster trip and extending a cordial
invitation to the citizens of O’Neill to
visit Neligh and see the attract
ions that they would have for the edi
fication of the public at their Chaut
auqua and race meet. Replying to Mr.
Wattles the freedom of the city was
extended .to the visitors by Judge
Harrington in behalf of Mayor Biglin.
The judge alse referred to the friend
ly feeling that existed between O’Neill
and Neligh and informed the visitors
that O’Neill would also have a race
meet the week before the Neligh
meeting and hoped to see a good dele
gation of Neligh people in the city up
on that occasion. His remarks was
loudly cheered and the Boosters assur
ed him that they would be present In
force. The Neligh Boosters are a
tine lot of men and many had numer
ous acquaintances here and made
many others who would be pleased to
greet them in O’Neill at any time.
