HAD TERROR OF TETANUS
YOUNG MAN ENDED LIFE IN ST.
LENT WATERS OF POTOMAC.
Had Cut His Hand While Opening
a Tin Can, and Feared 1t Would
Result Fatally.


WASHINGTON, D. C.-Seeking a
quick death in the waters of the
Potomac rather than face suffering
from tetanus Harry P. Lashhorn,
twenty-four years old, clerk in the
auditors Office of the treasury de-
partment, yesterday committed sui
eide by drowning himself.
The young man evidently planned
his end carefully, for a note which
he left showed that his act was not
the result of a rash determination.
When he left his mother and two sis
tiers at their home, 102 P street
northwest, in the morning it was
with a CHEEKY face and a pleasant
word. No one but himself knew he
was not going to work, but to death.
Gave No Intimation.
He had never made an intimation
that he would take his own life so
far as has been learned, but his moth
er and sisters knew he was despond-
ent because of the i'll health which
had been worrying him for several
months.
About three weeks ago Lashhorn
cut his hand while opening tin can.
The wound caused him trouble Two
operations were performed, and ply
sicians told him he must be careful
of the cut to prevent blood poisoning.
From his home Lashhorn probably
went to the arsenal He saw no
friends and did not visit his physi-
clan, SO far as has been learned.
Writing note he placed it in a peck
let of his coat. His hat and the coat
he placed on the sea wall at the juno
ton of the Potomac with the James
Creek canal.
No one saw the young man leap to
his death. About 1 o'clock in the
afternoon Stephen F. Stella and Har-
ry Lee were walking on the sea wall.
They found a mans hat and coat.
In a pocket of the coat was found a
note, which read:
Dear Jessie: I have committed
suicide down by the arsenal. Don't
let mother worry. Try to comfort
her. | cannot work, and I have been
in bad health long enough. I cannot
die of blood poisoning. Your broth
er, HARRY.
"P. 81 jumped overheard near
the little red house"
Police Find Body.
The police were notified, and at a
o'clock the crew of the police boat
Vigilant recovered the body near the
spot where Lashhorn leaped in the
water. There was a cut on the left
hand, Slightly discolored, which
showed why the clerk had feared te-
tanus.
