F. Siedow Makes vGood His
Threat to Commit Suicide. „
On last Friday evening at
seven o ’clock F. Siedow, a Ger­
man and a former resident of
Newberg, blew his brains out
with a revolver soon after ar­
riving from Portland. While on
the way out from the city, he
made so much disturbance by
flourishing his revolver and mak­
ing threats as to what he ex­
pected to do on his arrival in
Newberg, that his gun was taken
from him by the conductor.
His threats were that he ex­
pected 'to go to the home o f W.
H. Miller on North Main Street,
for whom his wife was keeping
house, and shoot Miller and
Mrs. Seidow and then end his
own life. That he did not make
good his threat all round it
seems was no fault o f his.
Immediately on his arrival at
the station, he went to the
Miller home and tried to gain
entrance, but was refused. He
hung around for some time and
fired several shots from his
revolver. Marshal Graham was
telephoned for, who, in company
with Constable H. R. Morris
started out in search of Seidow.
They found him at the outskirts
o f town on the north and called
to him to halt, Mr. Graham fir­
ing his revolver in the air in
order to induce him to stop run­
ning. He kept going however
and turned his gun on himself.
The bullet passed through his
head and death was instanta­
neous.
The coroner was notified, but
considered an inquest was use­
less and none was held.
The body was turned over to
Hollingsworth & Son, under­
takers, and burial was made on
Monday.
Seidow lived in Newberg a year
ago and worked at the sawmill.
He is said to have been married
three times, He was 50 years
o f age. Tw o sons came up from
Portland on Sunday and paid
the funeral expenses.
