hanging himself last night in barn
behind his residence.
Deceased had been to Scranton late

about Z 30 p. m, when his family
thought that he was in the basement,

did some of his carpentering work.
AT the time he committed the ia tai
act, his son was chopping sticks In the
yard nearby. and heard no unusual
noise, AT 9.15 he went to feed the
horses in the barn and saw his father
apparently standing on a box. He
spoke to him and, receiving no reply
went nearer, and, upon touching him,
found that he was suspended.
