herself too old for him, but married
a man named Davis. Tom re-
mained a bacheloruntil 1868, when
he met Mrs. Davis, who had be-
come a widow, renewed his court
ship of forty years before, and this
time was successful. After their
marriage they went to Toms River

committed suicide by shooting
himself. He had suffered protrac-

before the deed, he explained that
he could endure no more. Mrs.
Placide was prostrated by his death,
and her health, therefore, steadily
declined.
