From Nevada Representative January 4, 1888

Wm. Wilson, an old and respected resident of the county, living near Cambridge, committed suicide last Wednesday morning by setting fire to the hay loft of his barn and allowing himself to be burned to death. He has been partially insane during the past year which explains the sad ending of his life. The family and friends have the sympathy of the entire community in their bereavement.
