H.. Sutton Suicides.
A Spokane paper gives the shocking
news of H. ]. Sutton's suicide at the
Grand hotel in that city by shooting HIM
self through the head. From this report
it seems that Sutton had disgraced him
self and his family. He had lived at
Palouse City for the past eight or ten
years, where until a year o so ago he
had been highly respected. He worked
as clerk in one of the stores there. His
domestic troubles began by his intimacy
with a Mrs. Stewart who was employed
in the same store where Sutton worked.
Sutton turned a deaf ear to the warnings
of his friends. Both we're discharged and
the woman was ordered from rooms
which she had been occupying. Sutton
left to seek work elsewhere and in about
two weeks brought up at Spokane, with
the result as above stated. Sutton leaves
a wife and daughter, Ethel, IS years of
age. Aside from $4,000 life insurance
he leaves very little property.
H. J. Sutton will be remembered as
having lived in Dickinson. He came
Out from Vermont about the time the
New England colony made a settlement
on the Cannon Ball.
