Evening Republican, Volume 16, Number 99, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 24 April 1912 — Dr. Snugster, of Monticello In Financial Trouble. [ARTICLE]

Dr. Snugs ter, of Monticello In Financial Trouble.

Wednesday of last week Dr. Sangster was called upon for a settlement for some time past due paper and being unable to meet the same he execulted mortgages to R'obt. Spencer for $1,345.00 and to the State Bank for $1,200.00. That night it seems that instead of a stroke of apoplexy he undertook to shuffle off his trouble with a dose of chloral, but took too much and his stomach refused to retain It. Monday night he and Mrs. Sangster took the train north and Tuesday the creditors held a meeting to devise what was best to do. The affair comes as a terrible shock to Monticello people. About everybody tnought that he was one of the solid men and only a few knew that he was feeling hard times.
