forenoon he had been sent mp town
on an errand, and on his returning
home some remark was jokingly
made as to the length OF time he had
been absent. To this, it seems, he
took umbrage. Taking of'his shoes
and stockings, he proceeded to his
trunk and took thcrefrom q linen
coat. The sister Of Captain Eason,
who resides with him, inquired what
he was going 20 do. To which he
replied. 81 am going to drown my
self" and Immediately etarted from
the house. The peculiar expression
Of his countenance when he made
the remark startled Miss Eason, and
induced her to follow him and call
wilely to him to return. To he'
calls, however, he paid no attention
but proceeded at his utmost speed tC
the lake. Miss Eaeon followed a:
fast as possible, but only arrived il
time to eee him sink the last time
No cause can be given for the per

went with his family from Boston
last year, and settled at Otter Tail

a city in that "Garden of Minneso-
