MELANCHOLY SUIUIDE IN WEST CovINgToN
A German named George Fielder, who re.
sided in West Covington committed suicide
day before yesterday, by shooting himself in
the head with a pistol. He had long been
suffering intensely from cancer in the face,
which had, within the last year, spread itseli
throughout his whole system, completely de-
stroying all his energies, and totally unnerv-
ing his physical powers; and for some time his
neighbors and friends noticed that his intellect
wandered. Frequently, during his paroxysms
of suffering, he would appeal to Heaven tc
relieve him by sudden death, and once
made such an illusion to suicide as led them

malady had SO far preyed upon him that their

so great was his agony that any death must

subside, he hoped she might rather rejoice
