"Elizabethton Star," Monday, November 14, 1932
ELBERT ESTEP, WAR VETERAN KILLS HIMSELF - Native Countian Ends Life With Rifle; In Ill Health
Elbert (Jack) Estep, 42, World war veteran and native Carter countian, ended his life early today with a .22 caliber rifle in his bedroom at the home of his uncle Frank Estep, Dixon street, near the main highway beyond Glanzstoff.
The coroner, Porter Nave, and his jury held an inquest this morning and returned a verdict of suicide. Members of the jury were Sheriff J. M. Moreland, Roy Hathaway, R. B. Nave, H. S. North, and Rab Brumitt.
According to the Esteps, with whom he has been living with since last June, the veteran had been in ill health for a long time. He had been suffering for the last few days and last night before he retired, he asked for a doctor. Efforts were made to get the doctor who he requested, but the physician could not be located. He took some medicine given him by Frank Estep, and about 12 o'clock he smoked a cigarette and retired. About 2:30, Mrs. Estep heard a shot and called her husband. About that time, the wounded man had staggered into the living room and fell on a couch. Sheriff Moreland came, but before the officer had arrived he said, "The end of time had come," when asked why he shot himself. Later he told the sheriff he had shot himself and showed Moreland the wound near the heart. He died about 3:15.
Estep is well known in the city. He had lived in Carter county all of his life, with the exception of the time he served in the army. He received a pension.
Estep was a member of the American Legion and probably will be given a military funeral.
The funeral will be held Tuesday at two o'clock at the Colbaugh cemetery. The body is at the Hathaway Funeral Home.
Estep is survived by three sisters, Mrs. Becky Angel, Elizabethton, Mrs. H. B. Hale, Hagerstown, Md., and Mrs. H. E. Schwink, Sedalia, Mo.; three brothers, Robert and Eugene of Elizabethton, and Henry, who lives here but is now in Sedalia, Mo.; step-mother, Mrs. Lillie Estep; Elm street; three half-sisters, Julia, Bessie, and Mattie; and two half-brothers, Jack and Kenneth, all of Elizabethton.
