 Now that the clergyman is dead there are many stories coming out as to the life he led, but how many of them are true 1t is impossible to ascertain.
 A widow who nursed Mir. Tomsons wife in her last illness, told members of the congregation since the Sunday school meeting, that the minister had been attentive to her. She said that he had given her a watch and other presents.
 It is understood that Samuel Speed, brother-in-law of Mrs. Kenworthy, had a stormy interview with MT. Tom son some time ago. Several days thereafter matters which MT. Tomson and Mir. Sneed discussed came to a head and the engagement of MT. Tom son was announced.
 At the coroners inquest Friday afternoon a verdict was rendered to the effect that MT. Tomson had shot himself while suffering from abbera- ton of the brain.
