GRIEVES OVER DEATH OF WIFE, ENDS HIS LIFE
Ed. Andrastek Loses Interest in Life When Wife Passes
Despondency caused by grief over the death of his wife who passed away a month ago, on May 6, prompted the suicide late yesterday of Edward Andrastek, whose dead body was found hanging from a rafter in the loft of the barn at the home of Joseph Beatke, 1513 Columbus street, a brother-in-law. The body was discovered by Mr. Beatke at about 6 o'clock when he went to feed some kittens. He immediately cut the body down and called for the doctors but an examination showed Andrastek had been dead for more than an hour. County Coroner, Dr. W.G. Kemper and the district attorney were called but decided no inquest would be necessary, the death being clearly a case of suicide.
Worked During Morning
Andrastek went to work at the Reiss Coal company docks yesterday morning as usual but came home about 11 o'clock complaining he was ill. He remained at his rooming place at the Edward Musiel home, South Sixteenth street until after 3 o'clock and at about 4 o'clock was around his sister's home on Columbus street. When last seen he was standing near the barn. He disappeared without anyone noting where he went to and evidently made his way into the barn and to the second floor where he ended his life.
Born here May 10, 1884, Andrastek had always made his home here. He was married nineteen years ago to Miss Nettie Plotka and the family made its home on South Seventeenth street. Always a steady worker Andrastek seemed to lose his interest in life after the death of his wife May 6 and often complained of feeling ill. He never gave any hint, however, that he intended to take his own life and his act came as a shock to relatives.
Funeral Held Tuesday
The body was removed to the Shimek and Frazier undertaking parlors where it was prepared for burial and this afternoon it was taken to the Beatke home at Columbus street. The funeral will be held Tuesday morning with services at St. Mary's Catholic church and burial will be made at St. Mary's cemetery.
Three sisters survive Mr. Andrastek, Mrs. Joseph Beatke, and Mrs. Anton Wergin of this city and Mrs. Frank Napiezynske of Two Rivers. He was a member of the St. Aloysius and the Stanley Koskiuskos societies.
