srlcIpK At CLAYTON We learn that man
named r. B. Clark committed suicide BY
hanging himself at Clayton, between the hours
of eight and nine o clock yesterday morn
ing. He was saddler by trade; had been
residing at that place abont one year; was an
active church member, and his standing MAS
good not only in the church 10 which - he
longed, but in the community at Largo. He
had become financially embarrassed TO the
amount of few hundred dollars, and the
load was too heavy for him 10 carry. so he
concluded 10 put an end to his lifein the
manner snoken Of. For two or three days
previons t, the sad occurrence, he was very
much depressed in spirits and had urou sev>
eral osc asions declared to bis wife his mention
OF committing the act. After many earnea; en-
treaties on her part, be had finally promised
that he would not carry ont his rash design,
but on the day mentioned, he took . farewell
leave of his entire family, went TO tie stable,
and del bera,ely hung himself With d rope.
His lifeless body was discovered short time
afterwards.
We learn from the same source, that a
German named Spigls, living seven miles
South of Clayton, shot and killed himself g
few days since. Domestic infelicity caused
