A Shocking Suicide.

Word was received here last Friday
that Homer F. Gould had suicided at
his brothers place on John Day creek.
Coroner Bibby fastened down and held
an inquisition on the body, from which
We CLEAN that the deceased had been
someW hat respondent of late, and was
fearful of getting involved in financial
difficulties. On Thursday morning last
he arose very early, loaded double
barrelled shotgun, stood the stock on
the grauud. placed his head over the
muzzle and touched the trigger off with
the ramrod. The coroner says he never
saw more CHASTITY sight. for the top of
the head was completely shot away. and
fragments of the skull were found a
hundred yards away, showing that the
gun must have been charged to the
muzzle. He left a letter addressed to
his wife, stating in effect that financial
difilculties prompted the deed, but il
does not appear that he was in finan-
cal distress. On the contrary. he was
doing very well and would have done
better in time, but he was evidently
morbid on the subject of rapidly acqni-
ring wealth in the western country, and
not succeeding in his expectations gave
way to despair. He arrived here from
Iowa last summer with his wife. a most
estimable lady, and two bright little
boys, to whom the sympathy of the en-.
tire community is extended in this hour
of awful calamity which has overtakep
them. Mr.. Gould had recently purcha
sed the Bear Pete ranch and intended
moving his family there shortly. The
jury returned verdict of suicide while
in state of temporary insanity.
