A tragic inquest details the suicide of Albert Schairer, 101 Market street butcher and market proprietor, at his Fulton residence.

Coroner Rehblize, conveyed by town records, led to the conclusion of death by self-inflicted wound. He was born in Tubingen, Germany, in 1840, served briefly in the Confederate army, and left a large family surviving him, including eight younger children. A bouquet purchase and a final walk to Fulton framed a somber departure in a man once central to the market trade.
