Lilie, FriederichPROMINENT FRELSBURG CITIZEN DIES AT HOSPITALMr. Fritz Lilly, aged 69, a patient at the hospital for some time, finally succumbed to his injuries sustained by a horse’s vicious kick in the abdomen, on Sunday, at 6:30 p. m. He leaves his wife and several children.--La Grange Record. [Interment in Kaiser Cemetery] Weimar Mercury, March 18, 1927, page 4Lilie, Frederick Sr.SUICIDEMr. F. Lillie, Sr., living in this county, near Frelsburg, last Sunday committed suicide by placing the muzzle of a gun at the pit of his stomach and firing the weapon, the ball passing through his heart and out of his left shoulder. Mr. Lillie was an intelligent gentleman, over fifty years old, in good circumstances, and universally esteemed wherever known. He has been a resident of the county about thirty-five years, and has a wife and family of grown children. He was of a peculiarly sensitive nature, and the very suspicion of wrong even remotely attributable to him deprived him of rest, sleep or peace of mind. It is related of him that, in the trial of the Huillon case some years ago, Mr. Darden, the attorney for the defense, remarked as he walked out of the Courthouse that he would prepare an affidavit against him (meaning another party) which remark deceased heard, and applied to himself, as he had been a witness in the case, and from this cause he suffered great mental agony until assured by Mr. Leyendecker--who went expressly to see Mr. Darden about the matter--that Mr. Lillie was under a misapprehension. Lately he had come to the conclusion--which is believed to be purely the work of his sensitive imagination--that he had been guilty of an election fraud at an election held in the county some six years ago, and wrote to Mr. Leyendecker concerning it. No fraud has ever been discovered, and it is believed Mr. Lillie was incapable of perpetrating any. In this letter he says it was unintentional, which deprives it of any criminal offense, and he does not state what it was upon which he predicated his opinion. He visited all his relatives before resorting to the dread deed, wrote the letter referred to above and a note to his wife informing her of his intention, took a gun, went into his field, and committed suicide as above narrated. The high standing of deceased among his neighbors, his upright and useful citizenship and his many kindly qualities of head and heart, encompass this case with a sadness seldom before recorded. Peace to his ashes. [Interment in the Lilie Cemetery] Colorado Citizen, September 3, 1885Lilie, HerbertHerbert Lilie, 84, died Friday, Sept. 2, 1994, at a Bellville nursing home.
