Read More	Henry Schwartz Junior Dead Henry Schwartz Jr., son of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Schwartz of Creighton was found dead this morning on the old Losure farm about 9 miles southwest of Creighton, where he resided with his family, the result of an accidental gun shot. Arising about 5:30, he saw a coyote. Taking a shotgun from the house he ran to the machine shed, where the shells were kept and having loaded the gun climbed over a partition wall. Indications are that in so doing, he missed his footing, falling perhaps and the falling gun exploding by impact or otherwise was discharged, the load entering squarely into the breast above the heart. His brother, Elmer, saw him in standing position just previously to the time the gun report was heard. He was born on the home farm southwest of Winnetoon on November 8, 1887. He is survived by a loving wife, a daughter, Ruth, three years old and Bernard, the 18 month old baby. Also his father and mother, seven brothers and two sisters. His death comes as a sad blow to his own family for whom he proved to be a prudent provider and from the result of his efforts, he was acquiring a substantial amount of farming equipment and stock, through careful planning and constant labor. His death, too, comes as a severe shock to the estimable Schwartz family who, but a few short weeks ago, suffered the loss of a dutiful daughter and the tribulations of the family elicit the sympathy of the entire community with whom The News unite in expressing such condolences. The funeral will be held from the Catholic church, Saturday morning and interment will be made in the St. Ludger Cemetery. ...The Creighton News 21 July 1917 July 12...We heard that Henry Schwartz Jr. was found dead this a.m. ...A.W.
