[Summary With Quotes]: According to his spouse, Russell "came home Sunday night, undressed and then went over to the window to cool off." [He lit a cigar. His wife went to bed. Apparently, he fell]. There was speculation "he fell asleep and dropped the cigar on his breast. When it burned him, he flinched, causing him to lose his balance and fall."
