Hamlet, aged upward ofseventy years,
after assaulting his wife with wood
axe. inficting an ugly cash in her head,
went to body of pines on his farm
and hanged himself, using a pair OF

eide was discovered shortly after the act
was committed, Hamlet evidently
climbed up the tree, fastened the pillow
lines and jumped of the limb to which
they were attached His neck was
broken by the jump. He was in pros
porous circumstances and nothing of a
aerious character in the way of diff
ference with his wife on any previous
occasion was known to neighbors. He
leaves five children, all grown, none of
whom lived under the parental roof.
Mrs. Hamlet. it is thought, will recover.
