in Greenwood Cemetery, rrsulticg iu tho
death Of respectable gentleman named
Archibald Matthews, resident Of this c.:y.
who deliberately blew bis brat1s en-. with d
revolver. Thut the act was p-emedltated
there Is ro doubt, rs Will be seen By the to,,-
lowing:
At about 7:30 o'clock, as an employee in
the cemetery named Joseph Jones ~. re-
tu1ring tn hts home from work, he passed b7
asheet of Waier called t'Nucket Pond" which
Is about q quarter Of mile from the en-
trance snd . short distance frcm the tell
gate. HIS attention vas attracted to dark
object which laT near the pond. Proceeding
to the spot The discovered that It was the
dead body Of Q man with 3 horrible wouad
in the head; be did not wait to examine
It, but ran to the Forty eighth Precinct Sta
tion.house and there told Ills story. Instant
IT, several officers Wsrc sent to the place
Where the deed Eas committed and fon1d d.
ceased lying on his back aud wound near
bis mouth, and the back of his head literally
blown away. 4 navy.sized revolver was
found by bis elde, all the basrels being empty.
The unfortunate man had placed the muxzfe
Of the weapon by the side Of his ulou4h and
discharged 1t, the bsll pkssirg through his
skull and making It's exit just above the ear.
scattering TIE brains about the grass. His
right eye vas blackened, owing to the bullet
In It's ps 6snIt having covered the artery near
the eye. Under him Was found jack.kni'e,
with which, It is thought, he might ha ,e
tlrtt attempted to destroy him self, as there
was : scratch upon his neck. The body Was
conveyed to the statlon-houss while It was
still warm. His pockets were searched and
key, box Of caps, bullet, and lastly two
letters were found lu them. Deceased vas
about forty-nye years OF age, With hlit sous
what gray ana dressed IN gauze uudesshirt.
black vest, ccHt md pAnta1oons; pair OF
calf skin boots covered his feet.
The letters above alluded to were inclosed
In one envelope and directed to s.Caps. Geo.
Matthews, No. 1853 East Thirty-lest street,
N. T." The first WAS a letter to his son
George, In which he stated that tbs deed Wns
owing to bis great care and anxiety, as bis
future prospects were very gloomy. He re-
quested that, II possible, his budy should b.
aEtened where 1t MAS found, but By no mems
eheuld 1t be conveyed 10 his late residence.
The other letter WAS to bis wife, and In that
In affecting terms he asked her forgiveness
for the crime be committed. From the letter
It appeared that he was mechanic, and was
despondent Of his ever obtaining work. The
former was sfgned Archibald Matthews. but
tie latter Contained no signature. They
we're written in round hand, and II IL evi-
dent that he Was q man OF some kno Hledre
a1d ability. Tbs man had apparently BROOD
