Luke Cornerton of Waukon aged 50 shot himself after retiring Monday night December 5. He lived alone, was an expressman, and his body was found Tuesday afternoon. He had a large circle of friends and no note explained the act. The piece notes other local items and various notices from Cedar Rapids and surrounding areas.
Henry Jason of Cedar Rapids, a Milwaukees baggageman, was wounded in Cambridge when a revolver hidden in a trunk discharged while the trunk was handled. The bullet hit his ankle. The notice ends with an unrelated sale line about Berg's boy's clothes.
