The following statement Of II. Lee
CLARK, cashier Of the Enterprise Ma.
tional bank of Allegheny, Pa, writ.
ten q few hours before he committed
suicide, was made public Wednesday
night:
Dearest Wife and Children: In ten
hours or less | will be in the other
world. You have been a dear, go~d
wife to me. Andrews has worked my
ruin. Dear wife, keep all the insur-
ancs for yourself and babies. How
hard it is to leave ynu all. I have

going until 1 would get the road

bank will get everything but the life
insurance.
Your husband,
Lee"
Clark committed suicide on the
morning Of October 10 and the above
statement, written in pencil on one OF
the banks letter heads was found In
the dead mans home by his Ia year
Old daughter and turned over to his
attorney. 1t was evidently written
at the bank the night before the
suicide, when Bank Examiner Gun
ningham and Clark worked till mid.
night on the books Of the institu.
tion,
The bank was closed by the comp
troller Of the currency tho afternoon
following Clark's suicide on advices
from Examiner Cunningham. The
above statement Is not the one alleg-
cd to be in tho possession OF the fed.
eral authorities. That one, friends
Of the dead cashier say, was to the
government authorities, but it's exits
tence has been vigorously denied.
II. Lee Clark was treasurer of the
anita Fe Central railroad Of which
w. II. Andrews was president. A
