ter. This man at the age of 50 accidentally astertdined that he was his own grandfather. His worry over the discovery drove him to attempt suicide.
 The average reader will proba- bly doubt this, but as the man left the following autobiography for the coroner, it must be as sumed that 1t is true:
 "I married widow who had a grown up daughter. My father visited us often, fell In love with my stepdaughter and married her. Thus, my fatt CT became my son in- law, and my stepdaughter, be- ing my fathers wife, became my stepmother. Soon after this dis dressing complication arose, my wife gave birth to son. This son was my fathers brother-in- law and my own uncle, since he was a brother to my stepmother. My fathers wife also became the mother of q boy. He was, of course, my brother and also my grandchild, for he was th,. son Of my daughter. Also, my wife was d grandmother, since she was my mothers mother. 1 was my wife's husband and grandehild at once. At the same time, as the husband of persons grandT other is the persons grandfather, l am my own grandfather"
 Another man recently met a friend, and, in the course of con- versatipn, remarked that his wife's mother Was hls daug ghter-iu- law. He was, of course, mistak- ell, for she iS his mother-ia-law, but he Is perhaps hapriei Ill not knowing that.
 \ father and son involved themselves by marriage in very tangled relationship. The son chose an elderly woman, and the fatter married her daughter. 4 child Was born to each couple within q year. The difficult ques- tion arose, "What relation was orc child to the other?"
