During the temporary absence of his wife, Edward Pearman, a prosperous young farmer, of near Fillmore, killed himself about 6 o’clock, Friday evening last, August 24th. Pearman’s body was found in a rear room of the home on his farm with a bullet through the temple. William Warren, his brother-in-law, who was a neighbor, made the discovery at 6:30 o’clock. The body was still warm, and a 32-caliber revolver was found lying beside the prostrate form.<\/p>\n
His four-year-old child was in the house at the time Pearman killed himself.<\/p>\n
