ployes BY employer because Of indusa

THINKS TWAS SUICIDE.
So States Attorney Wilson Decides in
Forrest Rollins Death.

Chelsea, Jan. 81 Stanley G. Wilson.
states attorney, has just received from
DIR. b. H. Stone, Of the state laboratory
Of hygiene at Burlington, the findings
OF that institution as to the cause of
the death Of Forrest Rollins in Corinth
last week, which j. given as arsenic
poisoning.
Mr.. Rollins died Dec. q, after a very
hrief illness. under suspicious circum-
stances; so much so that. DR., N. F.
Blodgett OF Corinth, who was one of the
physicians called, refused to sign a
death certificate until an autopsy had
been held This was done Friday, after
which the vital organs were removed and
taken to Burlington for further inyesti-
cation. The examination there, taken
with the facts learned by the states
attorney, almost conclusively proves

of paris green. was self administered I'M
a fit of dependency, A tumbler stained
with the poison, was found at the time
Of the autopsy, and certain facts lead
ing up to the day of his death led to
the belief that Mr.. Rollins sought death
as means of escape from burdens he
felt unable to assume.
He was very poor and partially Grip
pied and made his living and that Of
his wife and several children by ped
ding essences on foot from house to
house. In meager circumstances at the
best, the family was still further reduced
in means when, after a weeks absence.
he returned home accompanied BY help
less old man, a pauper from the town
of Fairlee whom he had agreed to care
for. 1t soon became evident that Mr..
Rollins would be obliged to give up his
only means OF earning a livelihood, in
order to remain st home and care for
the old man, and that Mrs. Rollins, also,
would have to do the same. Certain
that their income would prove INSULT
eient for this, Mrs. Rollins made some

died suddenly before physicians could
reach him, although two were sent for.
He was 40 years old and had been twice
