    Niagara Gazette - 12/11/1878

    John Cretsinger, a wealthy farmer,
    sixty-five years of age, residing near
    Sulphur Springs, four miles west of the
    city of Lockport, committed suicide Monday
    morning by shooting himself with a
    revolver. Cretsinger is said to have
    been mentally unsound for some tfrne,
    and the fatal act was probably committed
    while the unfortunate man was laboring
    under temporary insanity. The
    Lockport Union of Monday gives the
    following particulars of the affair:
    Last night about five o'clock he started
    from home, saying he was going to call
    on Ins son, who lived near. He not returning
    home, inquiry was made, when
    it was learned that he had not visited
    his son. The family dog was then put
    on the track ot the missing man, when
    ho was found in a piece of woods be.
    tween 4 and 5 o'clock this morning. His
    son came up to him and put his hand
    ou his father s shoulder to detain him,
    when, without warning, the old gentleman
    turned and discharged a revolver at
    his son, but fortunately missed him.
    Mr. Cretsinger then suddenly placed the
    weapon against his own person and fired.
    He sank to the ground and expired in
    about ten' minutes. - A messenger was
    dispatched at once for Dr. Kittenger,
    who found that' the ball had entered at
    the base of the sternum and undoubtedly
    ruptured some of the large arteries of the
    heart. Deceased leaves a wlfe and three
    grown up children.
