grief for it would break him down--and he hoped

the McRae buildings, on Person street, was found,
on Thursday afternoon last, hanging by the neck to

put his neck near to the floor that he had to
raise his feet from the floor to accomplish the deed
and by the time he dead, the body had stretch

very natural for so violent death.
He had been married but 8 or 10 months and liv-

lead to it. His wife, we understand, says that he
seemed very uneasy the day and night before, and
could not rest usual She inquired into the cause
