CHROME RANCHER TAKES OWN LIFE

SHOOTS SELF IN HEAD WITH .25 - .35 RIFLE

Kendrick Gale Millsaps, 40-year-old stockman in the Chrome area, took his own life at 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon.

A bullet from a .25 - .35 Winchester rifle entered Mr. Millsaps forehead at eyebrow level.

Failing health is believed to be the reason for the prominent Chrome rancher ending his life. He had been in somewhat poor health for about a year.

Called Doctor
At noon yesterday he was not feeling well. He asked his wife, Helen, to call Dr. F. H. Gambell of Willows. She went to the nearest home where a telephone was available and placed a call to the local doctor.

Upon returning to her home she changed the bedding in her husband's bedroom and gave him a clean set of underwear. She then went into the bathroom to bathe. It was while she was in the bathroom that she heard her husband get out of bed and go into the kitchen. She heard a commotion and upon investigating saw her daughter, Juanita, attempting to wrest a .25 rifle from her father. In the struggle the gun was fired three times. One bullet hit the girl on the index finger causing a minor wound. The rifle was finally taken away from Mr. Millsap.

He ran outdoors and opened a door to a storeroom where he obtained the .25 - .35 Winchester. He put the barrel end of this rifle to his forehead and pulled the trigger. He was dead when Dr. Gambell arrived.

Thought He Had Cancer
Mr. Millsap had been receiving treatments for sinus and stomach ailments. He believed he had cancer of the stomach.

In recent years he had an orchestra which played at dances throughout the area. He was a talented musician.

He was born at Chrome and had lived in the district all of his life.

He is survived by his wife, Helen; a daughter, Juanita and his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Albert Millsap, all of Chrome.

Funeral services will be held at 2 o'clock Wednesday afternoon at the F. D. Sweet & Son Funeral Home. Interment will be in the Willows Cemetery.
