Elkin, June 14—the funeral of Henry Hutchens, aged 58, who committed suicide by hanging himself in his barn at his home near Boonville, was conducted yesterday from Forbus Friend’s Church in Yadkin.
No motive for the deed other than worry over the outlook of a second crop failure on account of drought, could be suggested.
The funeral was conducted with honors from the Junior O.U.A.M. The attendance was estimated at 3,000.
