Mr. Calligan had been in town during the day and had returned home at about eight o'clock in the evening. At nine o'clock he went upstairs to retire for the night and a few minutes later lay at the foot of the stairs, a corpse.

The family with whom he was living were startled by the sound of the fall and at once investigated its origin. They found Mr. Calligan lying at the foot of the stairs. When lifted up he gasped once or twice and all was over. His neck had been broken by the fall. Mr. Calligan was about sixty-eight years old and was an old settler in Webster County. He was well known and universally well liked around the county. He leaves three children to morn his loss, Mrs. C. W. Maher, of Badger, Mrs. L. C. Warner, now living in Miles City, Montana, and T. F.
