Earl Freeman
Died on 4/21/1911
Buried in Blair Cemetery

The body of Earl Freeman was brought up from Omaha Sunday morning and taken direct to the cemetery for burial. Mr. Freeman was shot by his wife last Monday when she caught him in company with another woman with whom he had been intimate for some time.

He was taken to St. Joseph’s hospital where he died Friday. The woman he was with was wounded but not seriously. Mrs. Freeman was beside herself with anger when she did the shooting and has been prostrated with grief since the death of her husband. Mr. Freeman was a former resident of the city and they have three children buried here. His mother, two brothers, Fred and Will, and his sister and husband came up with the body Sunday morning.
