Rinehart - Frank
Source: Waveland Independent Waveland, Montgomery County, Indiana Sept 16, 1932
On Sunday morning Wilder RINEHART was called to Lebanon by the news that his brother Frank V. RINEHART had been found dead in his home on E. Main St. Since the death of his mother, Nancy Ann Rinehart in January, he has been living alone. Neighbors noticed that the daily paper had not been taken in and that there was a light burning in the kitchen. Entering at a side door on Sunday morning about 10 they found him lying dead on the kitchen floor. A load of bread partly sliced and a part of a pie were on the table and a bread knife on the floor, making it evident that he was preparing his supper when death came. The fact that he had taken in the Tuesday paper fixed that day as the time of his death, which resulted from heart trouble. Owing to the state of the body funeral services at the home were held on Sunday evening. Burial at Oak Hill Cemetery. He visited here Aug 20 and was in his usual health. He is survived by 3 brothers, Wilder, Harry of Indianapolis and Jesse of Rochester, and by one sister, Mrs. Ralph BEESLEY of Thorntown. He was assistant postmaster of Lebanon for 11 years, following which he was a clerk in the First National Bank, but has been retired for some years. - kbz
