A NEW YORK MERCHANTS
BODY
Found i'm the Sound at New Ha.
ven, Bearing No Marks of Vic
Ience,


The body of George Trull, we'll
known merchant OF this city, was found
i'm Long Island Sound, near the railroad
depot ut New Haven, yesterday morn
ing. Mr. Trull has been engaged IN the
dry goods trade in this city for a good
many years, and since his marriage, ID
wears ago, had lived at Elizabeth, \. j.
For some time past he had been suffer.
inc from malaria, and his wife was an
invalid also. On Saturday last they
brokeup housekeeping, Mrs. Trull gong
to Baltimore with her two children to
spend the fall and winter at the nome
Of her parents. Mr. Trull was to take
lodgings i'm this city and continue his
business. On Wednesday last he left
Elizabeth for this city at the usual hour
and in the afternoon OF the same day
took Sound boat, but whether for New
Haven or Boston is not at present
known, although his brother, Mr.. VIII
liam f.. Tmll, who lives in this city, left
for Boston on the same day and is eX-
pected back this evening. Mr.. George
Trull also left word with his friends at
Elizabeth that he would return to-day.
Nothing has been heard from Mr.. VIII
liam T.. Trull concerning the fate of his
brother, and il is not definitely known
therefore whether the two men left this
city together or not.
Mr. Trulls body was identified by
the articles found in his pockets. Be
sides gold watch and some money he
had a Communication ticket between New
York and Elizabeth, on which his name
appeared. He also had business card
which read George d William +. Trull,
dry goods on commission, 81 Worth
street New York The body had APP
parentlv been in the water about two
days and bore no marks of violence.
From this latter fact it was generally
supposed that the man had either fallen
accidentally or leaped from Sound
steamboat.
Mr. Trull began business in this city
as a salesman in the dry goods house OF
Harvey Spence, No. 100 Worth street,
where he remained for upwards of 20
wears, becoming finally silent partner
I'm the business. Two years ago he and
his brother William +. started a dry
goods commission house at 80 Worth
street, but dissolved partnership,
George joining a sewing machine com
many at No. Is East Fourteenth street
and his brother William going into
partnership with William COurtenay, at
l. Dey street.
Mr.. Trull was born in Baltimore and
was only forty years old, He was the
eldest Of family OF four brothers
George, William, John and Graham.
He was very much liked by all his ac-
quaintanceS, being jovial and sociable
companion. He had always lived very
happily with his family, it is said, and
il he ended his life by suicide his near
est friends are at a loss to assign the
cause for such an act.-N J. World.

York World of several days ago, will be
