IT WAS SUICIDE.
Fate of O. H. Jewell, South
Monmouth, Is Known.
The Body Found at Bath Identified by
His Son-in-law.
Relatives Satisfied That the Deceased
Committed Suicide.

Bath, Me-, July 29.-The body of a
man found in the Kennebec river,
Tuesday, with the clothing weighted
down with rocks, arousing a suspicion
that murder or suicide had been done,
was identified, Wednesday, as that of
Otis H. Jewell of South Monmouth,
missing since late last winter.
w. G.. Jenkins, son-in-law of the
dead man, at the receiving tomb, today,
and chest protector and flannel belt
about the waist. The body was taken
to South Monmouth.
Jewell owned a farm at South Men
mouth and was about 60 years old. A
widow, one daughter Mrs. w. c. Jen-
kins, and a brother, Orville Jewell OF
Wales, Me-, survive him. He went
| from Massachusetts to South Mon
mouth, 10 or 90 years ago.
He had not been in good health pre-
viOus to his disappearance and con-
stantly worried over supposed bust
ness troubles. 1t was known at the
| time that he went to Lewiston and his
| relatives, suspecting suicide, had the
Androscoggin river searched. The
| supposition now is that he went from
| Lewiston to Brunswick or Bath and
| there, after filling his pockets with
rocks, ended his life by jumping into
| the Kennebec river.
According to reports published, Mrs.
Jewell recently had found her missing
| husbands will. watch, bank book and
valuable papers in her private trunk
strengthening the belief that he had
committed suicide. Foul play was
| feared at first, as Jewell, it was sup
posed, had some money with him. The
| money was found, later.
