Bio
Obituary - DEITERMAN, GEORGE Wichita Daily Times - Wichita Falls, Texas 6 Nov 1914, front page -YOUNG FARMER ENDS LIFE WITH SHOTGUN- -Body of George Deiterman is Found Near Home By Father- -COMPLAINED OF POOR HEALTH- -Leaves Home With Gun This Morning and is Found When Parents Become Alarmed- George Deiterman, aged thirty years. single, son of Mr. and Mrs. E. Deiterman living about four miles northwest of the city, shot himself with a single barreled shotgun at about 8 o'clock this morning. Death was evidently instantaneous, the load taking effect in the stomach, tearing a great hole through the body. The body was found by his father who had started out to search for his son when he learned that he had left the house with the shotgun. The body was lying in the bed of a small creek. The imprint of the butt of the gun where it had sunk into the soft earth was plainly discernible. -Had Hidden Shotgun- Yesterday Deiterman complained of not feeling well and started to walk toward the Wichita River which runs through the Deiterman farm. His father followed him and found him in the river with his clothes on. He was induced to come out. This morning his father who is nearly 80 years of age hid the shotgun before he went out on the farm. When he returned he found his son had discovered the gun and had left the house telling his mother that he was going to kill a rabbit. His father, alarmed, set out to search for him and soon came upon the body. The dead man was very popular in the community where he was well known and was a quiet industrious man. With his father he operated one of the largest farms in Wichita County and was well to do.
