Suicide of Geo. M. Goddard.

SUICIDE OF Geo. M GODDARD.
Mr.. Geo. M. Goddard, a well known
young man of this city, died at 1 o. clcok
yesterday morning, from the effects of a
dose of paris green purposely admins
tered with his own hands. The cause of
his rashness was encouragement brought
on by family trou bles and uncongeniality
of surroundings The young man came
to the conclusion to end his life some
time Wednesday. The first intimation
that his family had of his rash act was
about O'Clock of that afternoon, when
he informed his brother, who was in
company with him in the little garden
that is in the rear of the residence of his
father, William Carroll, on Seavey street,
that he was feeling badly and asked
him to go for physician. The young
man retired to a lounge when he reached
the house, and was rapidly growing
worse when Dr. Swan arrived. The first
intimation that anyone had of his reck-
less deed was when hesowned up to the
doctor that me had taken teaspoonful
OF paris green at O'Clock in the after
noon. Despite the efforts of DR.. Swan,
the young man rapidly failed and at
O'Clock thursday morning died.
Young Goddard was 81 years of age,
unmarried, and rugged man. 1t is
learned that he had a Discrimination
for work, and. 1.-THE immediate cause OF the
deed was the instructions from his
father Wednesday morning that he
must find work as he could not support
him in idleness longer. Goddard held a
good reputation in this city, and was al
ways considered perfectly sane.

She Was Decked In Her Aridal Gown and
Flowers, but Was Free.
A little girl in India went to the mis-
sionary school. She was pretty, clever
little thing, and SO attracted the teacher
that she ventured to visit her in her home.
She found the child overshadowed by the
horror of her approaching marriage. As
baby, she had been betrothed; but, ac-
cording to custom, she lived on in her ia
theirs house till she was IL. Then she was
to be taken from her own people and given
over to her husband, hideous little man,
deformed, his face SCARED with disease, Of
bad character and VIGOROUSLY given to
drink
The child was terrified of him, and he
derived ghoullike pleasure from her ter
ror, used to jump at her in the dark,
make faces at her, and told her that once
really married to him and in his home
he and his old mother would make short
work Of her beauty with redhot fork, so
that it would soon be difficult to choose
between their two faces.
At last the fatal day arrived. The mis-
sionary's heart ached for the little friend
she was unable to help, and as she went
about her work she prayed that God might
save his hapless creature.
At noon the child's mother burst into
the house. s.Nahomi is dead she cried,
and the two women hurried to her home.
There was Nahomi, lying stiff and cold on
the floor, looking very slim and childish
in her bridal dress and smooth, flower
crowned head.
It appeared she had spent the morning
In restless agony of anticipation, that to
quiet her, her miserable mother had beaten
her, and that afterward she had fallen into
an apathy of despair.
She had washed her little person and
her hair, had braided it neatly, had put
on her bridal gown, had decorated herself
with flowers and jewelry, and then had
gone quietly into the yard behind the
house, where d datura tree hung it's great
white trumpets against the blue sky, dug
up and ate little OF it's poisonous root,
and then crept back into her home, where
she now lay. cold, stark-free. -Temple
