18 May 1922 - West Branch Times

The lifeless body of Antone Psota was found Tuesday noon, hanging in the granary at his home near Cedar Valley. The gruesome discovery was made by Walter Brennan and it is thought the suicide had occurred either Monday night or very early Tuesday morning.

Mr. Psota was a single man, 52 years of age, and lived alone. He had been acting queerly for some time.

He had evidently attempted to end his life by cutting his throat but failing in this resorted to the rope.
