yesterday and then shot himself in the
right temple with small revolver. The
deed was committed in the pretty little

was notified and deputy sent out 10 the
address. Nothing could be found at the
address given. and later when another
call came in from Williamson street john
sons dead body was found
The frenzied man had bolted the door
before finishing his work, and the officers
were compelled TO break IL in. The sight
that met their ewes was an AWFUL one On
the kitchen table Law "a razor all covered

different portions Of the floor. and car
