Will Hansen Takes Own Life Saturday

Truro, November 15. – Special – A wave of excitement spread over Truro Saturday evening when R. I. Cushing telephoned W. D. Kale that Will Hansen had committed suicide some time during the afternoon or evening. Mr. and Mrs. Cushing had been away during the afternoon and upon their return home found the house locked. After some time they gained admittance and found a note on the table telling them what he intended to do and asking them to notify his brother at Omaha, Nebraska.

Mr. Hansen who came here last spring to work on the booster station has been making his home with the Cushings and working around wherever he could get work. The father and a son arrived here Sunday and departed in the evening for Omaha with the body.
