Our correspondent at Odessa tells the sad
story Of the suicide by hanging Of Mr.. John
W. Fickle. Mr.. Fickle was . married man, |
aged about - years. He was farmer, and
lived on his farm about one mile west of |
Odessa, upon which he had for his own con-
venience blacksmith shop. It was in this |
shop that he was found, at O'Clock last Sun
day morning, hanging by the neck from q |
rafter, suspended by a trace chain, the loop
being formed by the ordinary ring in one end. |
He was discovered In this condition by his |
second daughter. Life II not extinct soon
left him. and DR.. Hughes, who was called,
could do nothing for him. The body was
viewed by Esquire B. T. Russell, the facts /
being so patent that no Jury was held to be
necessary. The neck was not broken, the /
death being by strangulxtion. Mr. Fickle
was good, moral man, In good esteem with
all who knew him, and no positive reason is
assigned for the act. He had been attending
q Baptist revival meeting for some time, and
though himself a church member, was much
concerned for brother. But that this was
the direct cause of his .. is not known.
Temporary alteration Of mi IL Is supposed to
have existed. Mr.. Fickle II. YES q wife and
several children, the Oldest being about 15
years ofage. 1t Is verr sad sad case, and
the family has much sympathy from their
ne ghbors.
It goes without saying, as the French say,
that to an editor, lawyer, educator, student
of public economy, or, in truth, to any OBJ
server Of current topics Of substantial interest,
there is no publication equal to the North
American Review. 1t Is continued sympo.
SUM upon advanced themes, with the master
minds Of both hemispheres as opponents Of
the most matured ideas. When it fails to
reach our desk we feel that we have lost, first,
rare treat In literature, and, second, valua-
BILE lessons, seldom reckoned lower than the
number Of papers which it contains. In q
short newspaper notice we cannot elaborate
upon this as the magazine deserves that we
should dc, ,as unique production. The simple
mention Of the subjects treated and the ,
names of the authors, in the number for
April, will convey the idea that we here
seek to impress. 1. "Divorce,n Rev. DR..
