Tragedy
Husband,
Mother and
Four Children
Found Dead in
Their Home
During last
night the most
terrible
tragedy ever
enacted in
Gage County or
this section
of Nebraska
occurred.
About 4
o'clock this
afternoon,
Mrs. Dr.
Allen, of
Beatrice, came
to Ellis on a
visit to her
brother, John
H. Puterbaugh,
who lived a
mile and a
half south of
town. No one
answering her
knock an
investigation
was made,
Puterbaugh lay
dead on the
floor. The
mother lay in
bed with a
bullet through
her head. In a
bed with her
was a
two-year-old
baby, also
shot through
the head. In
the room above
was another
bed occupied
by two young
girls, one 13
and one 15,
both dead,
with bullet
holes in their
heads. The
dead were
Puterbaugh,
his wife and
four children.
How they met
their terrible
fate is as yet
unknown. The
general belief
is that the
terrible deed
was the work
of the husband
and father.
The motive is
unknown, as he
was a
peaceable man
in comfortable
circumstances,
and it is
believed that
no trouble
existed in the
family.
Under
Puterbaugh's
arm lay a
32-caliber,
six-chamber
revolver, with
all the
chambers
empty.
All his
victims seemed
to have been
killed while
sleeping, as
there were no
signs of
struggle.
