HANGS HIMSELF IN HIS CELLAR
Henry F. Urtel Brooded Over His Physical Condition
WAS UNABLE TO WORK
Injuries Sustained in Fall Last Summer Responsible - Ends Life While member of Family are attending Easter Services
Henry F. Urtel, 60 years old, of No. 332 Thompson street committed suicide about 11 o'clock yesterday morning by hanging himself to a beam in the cellar of his home with a clothesline. His body was discovered by members of the family on returning home from church about 11:00 o'clock and cut down. Dr. A. T. Leonard was called but life was extinct when he arrived. Urtel, who was a carpenter by occupation, was injured about the head in a fall while working at the North Tonawanda pumping station last summer and had been unable to work since. It is said that he brooded over his condition recently and much more then usual during the spring-like weather that has prevailed for the past few days. While other members of the family left to attend Easter services at St. Matthew's Lutheran church on Wheatfield street yesterday morning, Urtel excused himself, saying he feel like going out. His absence when the family returned home caused a search to be instituted, which resulted in the finding of his body hanging in the cellar. Besides his wife, Urtel is survived by one daughter, Mrs. George Fritz, who resided with him, four brothers, August Urtel of Middleport, Frank and Rudolph Urtel of Lockport and Theodore Urtel of Kitchener, Ont., and one sister, Mrs. Albert Retzloff of Wolcottsville. The funeral will be held Wednesday afternoon at 2 o'clock from the late residence and will be private. Rev. Carl Frankenstein of the St.Matthew's church will officiate and interment will be in Sweeney cemetery.
