Death of Frank Stewart  -Suicide Suspected

The friends of Mr Frank Stewart, of Cane Grass deeply regrettod to learn that his body had been discovered on Monday at Cane Grass with a revolver bullet wound over the right ear, which is supposed to have been self-indicted. The deceased, who was a constant visitor to Menzies, where up till quite recently he brought the stone for treatment at the Menzies State mill, won from the Baden Powell mine, in which he was an interested partner.

The news of his untimely end caused quite a shock to his friends and acquaintances. Deceased was an old resident of the district. With his mate, Bob Howe, he ran a condenser at the IOU mine some 13 years ago, since which time they have continued more or less their, association as mates. Deceased was a married man, and was of a genial and affable disposition. Of late he has not been in the best of health, and whilst at Kalgoorlie his physical condition to his friends appeared to be somewhat shaky.
No reason, however, can be ascribed for the rash act which ended his existence., It was only a few months ago that one of his late partners poisoned himself.
