George A. Wilson. lonely and tired Of
life, hanged himself I'm East Greenwich

Mr.. Wilson lived on Main street in one

pneumonia about a year ago and the old
man had led rather lonely life since
that time.
He was employed at the Greenwich
bleachery until four or five weeks ago,
when he left work there because he
thought his wages ought to be more. He
boarded with a AIRS. Nully and had a
room I'm the attic of the house.
The hanging was discovered yesterday
morning, when John Evans called Mr..
Wilson 10 breakfast. On receiving no re-
sponsa Evans went to the attic room and
found the occupant hanging by a cord
around his neck, with his feet only three
against the wall.
The deceased had no relatives in East
Greenwich, but is said TO have a niece In
this city. He formerly resided at Ger
mantown, Pa, where he is said 10 have
held responsible position in a carpet
manufacturing establishment
Since he went TO East Greenwich he
was a regular attendant st ST. Luke's
church, and at one time was a lay reader
i'm the Protestant Episcopal denomina-
ton.
Medical Examiner Eastman ordered the
remains 10 be prepared tor burial and to
be turned over to relatives of the dead
man. If they shall appear TO claim them.
