Mr.. ID. Is. Avera, n son-in-Law Of the Late
Governor Fowle. Cuts His Own Throat
His Mind Had Been Failing.

Raleigh, n. c., Oct. S.Special.--
There was n shocking and CHASTITY
tragedy at the Marlboro House this
morning between G:30 and 7 o'clock.
Mr.. d. B. Avera, for years one of the
leading cotton merchants and most
prominent property owners of Raleigh,
took his own life by cutting his throat
with knife in his room at the hotel.
Mr. Ayera came up TO Raleigh a few
days ago on business from his country
home in Johnston county, where he has
resided for the past two years. He took
room at the Marlboro. He had not
gone up 10 his room at i o'clock this
morning. and had not been seen about
the hotel for several hours. About =
o'clock this morning Mr.. Avera met
Police Officer Beasley on Fayetteville
street and asked him for protection. tell
ing him that somebody was trying TO cut
him with knife. Captain Beaslcy
walked with him to the p0lice-Station,
where he remained passiyey, but evil
IDENTIFY in disturbed mental condition till
about q o'clock this morning, when DR..
James Mckee was telephOned for and
came down to the station. After talk
ing with Mr.. Avera, DR.. Mckee induced
him 10 go TO his room at the Marlboro
and accompanied him there On reaching
his room. DR.. Mckee induced him to
go TO bed and administered a dose of
medicine, which Mr. Ayera said made
him feel better. The doctor then went
to the door and was giving some instruc-
tions to bel-DOy with regard 10 at
tending to Mr.. Ayera's wants While
the doctor had his back turned Mr..
Ayera produced a knife and with one
thrust at his throat severed the jugular
vein and was dead before anything
could be done to staunch the flow OF
blood. Mr.. Avera up to the time he met
the officer had evidently been wander
ing about Lot having been to his room
at all. On his clothing were noticed
burS and Spanish needles, showing that
he had probably wandered off from the
city during the night.
Mr. Avera was about forty-Six years
of age, and was until about two years
ago prominently engaged in the cotton
business here He married Miss Matte
Fowle. daughter Of the late Governor
Fowle and granddaughter Of the late
Judge Pearson. He was prosperous in
business and accumulated a large amount
of property and money. About two
years ago he retired with his wife 10
his estates in Johnston county. where
he has engf ged largely in farming and
planting and lived well, coming to
Raleigh frequently to look after his pro-
perty here. The sad event was most
unexpected shock to everybody. Mr..
Avera had no children, neither brothers
nor sisters, but his aged father and
mother survive him, together with his
widow. Mrs Avera. 1t has for some
time been thought that the mind of the
deceased was failing. His remains will
be taken tomorrow 10 his home in John
stOn county for interment.
