Ile Blew Out the Gas
The WinnipeFree Press of the 25th
says sad fatality occurred at ttie
Manor House Thursday, through the
ignoratice of a couple. of Ontario 'lads
as to the effects of gas. They were
found. in their room in the morning,
one beyond all earty h' assistance, the
other unconscious. Wesley S. Chittick
was the name of the unfortunate
young man who now lies cold in death.
His companion, who has completely
recovered, is H. Falconer.
The two youngmen arrived in the
city on Wednesday, registering from
Blyth, Ont. They secured room. 81,
and slept there that night: The gas
was allowed to burn all night. On
Thursday 'they did not return until
•evening, de ad th *same room
retiring about 12 o'clock. It wasabout
5 o'clock Friday morning the night
watchman of the hotel became aware
that gas was escaping, and upon
investigating discovered that it was
coming from room 31. He listened at
the door. and heard heavy breathing
from within. With the assistance of a
board he , managed to climb through
the transom. The room was filled with
the deadly gas.
The young men .slept in separate
beds. One of them, youngObittick,
lay quietly on his small single bed
opposite the window ; his companion
was found on the floor, and was
breathing heavily. Dr. Jamieson and
Dr. Neilsen were summoned, ' and
while awaiting, their arrival every-
thing possible to bring back life to the
young men was done by the hotel
people. Young Falconer soon recov-
.ered consciousness, but Ohittick could
not be resuscitated.
Falconer states that he does not re.
member the light being blown out. He
says he knows nothing about gas, The
deceased young man was past twenty
years of age.He is the eldest o f
•John Chittick, it blacksmith at Bel -
more, neer Wingham, Ont, He is one
of a large familyof nine children.
Falconer was a foster brother, being
known in the Ontario • villagt3 by. the
name citOhittiek. The two young men
left their home last spring and went to
Morden, where they worked on the
farm of Sam Chitticlr„ a cousin of Mr.
John Chittick. They came into Win-
nipeg intending to look for employ-
ment, and to spend .the winter here.
The parents of the deceased have been
telegraphed to, and the body will pro-
bably be tient to Ontario for interment.
