Suicide at Williston.
Hon Hiram Clark of Williston commit
ted suicide, on Saturday last, by hanging
himself with Il scarf suspended over
hook IN a closet adjoining his room. Mr..
Clark had suffered periodically, in former
years, from mental alteration, and the
deed was undoubtedly committed while
suffering from an unexpected attack of
this nature. Mr.. Clark was left by the
members of the family, but a few mo-
ments previous to the fatal act, lying upon
the lounge in his room. Fifteen minutes
later he was discovered, dead. Seven
teen years ago Mr.. Clark was sent
to an institution for the insane, but
]
and has been free from mental alteration
/ until quite late for twelve years. 1t Is
| supposed that the sudden return of the
| malady was due to OVerWOrk. Mr.. CLARK
| has been unable to sleep for nights at q
| time his mind has always been disturbed
| by he care and worry incident to large
business contract which he had under
taken. OttentimeS when these spells OF
! temporary insanity came on, the fact was
| hardly apparent to Mr.. Clark's friends,
from hi, outward conduct. He is said to
have confessed, however, that he always
/ had a tendency to commit suicide. The
deceased spent last year in Flurlda, for
the sake of his health.
Mr.. Clark was a prominent citizen of
WillstOn, Il man who was respected and
trusted 10y all who knew him. His buol-
ness capacity was more than ordinary. He
owned Il large amount of real estate and
other property. Mr.. Clark was also IA man
of public spirit, and was hOnOred by hl-
fellow citizens with many important
trusts. AT one time ne represented the
town of WillisrOn in the state Legislature
His sudden and sad death casts gloon
over the entire community where he
lived.
