DIR. ]. B. HINKLE SUICIDES
HE TOOK DOSE OF DEADLY POIs-
ON THURSDAY NIGHT

And Thus Ended the Last Tragedy in His
Life--Found Dying About II O'clock,
and All Efforts to Revive
Him Were Futile.
From the Americas Recorder.
Doctor James B. Hinkle committed
suicide Thursday night by taking poison.
He was discovered to be dying shortly
after II o'clock by his son, Albert, who
was awakened by his fathers heavy
breathing. Seeing his condition Albert
gave the alarm and the police quickly re-
sponded and sent for doctors.
Dr.. lowers first reached the scene
where number of gentlemen had ASSEM-.
bled, and pronounced it morphine pois-
on. He found Dr. Hinkle rigid and scarce
ly breathing, though still. with a good
pulse Anidotes we're administered,

ment' our ~ the time of DR.. Darby S
arll al little later it was seen that re-
: covery was hopeless, and that it was
| matter of only few houls until death.
Mrs, J. B. Hinkle, the Messrs. Hinkle,
sons of the unfortunate man, Mrs. A. B.
Hinkle, her father and brother, were
summoned and remained at his bedside
during the night. Their grief was most
pathetic.
He had evidently taken fatal dose
some hours before, and was beyond help
before help came. He fingered until
o'clock Saturday, when death relieved
him.
This is the last scene in the terrible
tragedy of DR.. Hinkle's life, and in this
new and awful affliction to his stricken
family, the sympathies of every humane
hear$~@o out.
On Sunday his remains were carried tt
Macon for burial.
