A Fathers Despair and self inflicted Death
His SONS Final Rescue, too Late TO save
The graphic cccurren-e Q that Is describe
below Is cne of the most remarkable episodes
| in the domestic history of America 1t Is
! abso ute truth which can readily be verified.
The inhabitants of TIE pleasant town OF
| Cortland, n. Y, were shocked one morning
by the announcement that Mr.. CT nton
/ Rindge, one of their most prominent citizens,
had committed suicide The rews spread
| rapidly and aroused the entire neighborhood
! where Mr.. Rindge was so we and favorab' y
known. At first it seemed impossible that
| anv one so quiet and domestic could do so
rash deed, and the inquiry was heard on
every side as to the eau 9. The facts as de-
veloped ON investigation proved to be IS
follows:
Mr.. Rindge was domestic in his tastes and
took the greatest enjoyment in the society OF
his children and pride in their Development.
And indeed he had good reason to be proud
for they gave promise of long lives OF success
and usefulness. But an evil day came His
Youngest son, William, began to show signs
Of an early decay. He felt unusually tired
each day, and would sometin es sleep the en-
tire afternoon if permitted to do so. His head
panied him, not acute.y, but with dull,
heavy feeling. There was sinking sensation
at the pit of his stomach He lost all relish
for food and much of his interest for thing
about him. He tried manfully to over,
come these fee ings, but they seeme1
stronger than his will He began to
lose flesh rapidly. The father tecame
alarmed and consulted physi ians as to the
came of his ms line S, but they were una
ble to expla n. Finally Sc eie sorei br, Ike
out Oh his arms AMI he was taken to Buffalo,
where pa Mt operation wa performed re-
sulting in the less of much blood but afcrd-
ing little relief The young man retgrLed

cared th:re was no hope of fina' recovery and
that Re IN lst die w thn a very few days. To
describe the agony which this announcement
caused the father would be impossible. His
mid failed to grasp its full m aning at first;

lo1d was to- great In an agony OF fIesZy
he sezed a knf and took his own ii e, pre-
ferring death Either al to sur i've
his idohzed son. At that time
William Rindge was too weak to know
what was transpiring His face had
turned ba k, his breath ceased entirely at
times, and his friends waited fer his death,
believing that the fend Rright's di ease of
the kidneys, from which he wa; a suffer r,
could not be moved. In this supreme mo-
ment Williams sister came forward and de
clared she o Id make final attempt to save
her brother. The docto inter- osed ass T.

The ia her, dead by his own hand, supposinZ
his sons recovery to be impossible; the son
restored 10 health to mourn the loss of his
father and the agonized relatives with mem
CRY OF sadness TO forever darben their lives.
Had Clinton Rindge known that his son Cu.d
recover he would to-day be alive and happy,
but the facts which turned his brain and
ca Ise1 him to commit suiC i le We're such as
any one would acceptas true.
However sad this clSe may be. the truth
remains that thousands OF people are at Is
