1 AND PRAYER BOOK
Miss Frances Henshaw
Makes Careful Prepa-
rations for Death.

With an open prayer book and a
orucihx by her side, Miss Frances s.
Henshaw. fifty-four years old, was
found dead In bed this morning with a
rubber tube connected with an open
gas Jet between her lips in an apart
ment in the Brunswick, l street, be-
tween Thirteenth and Fourteenth
streets northwest.
Despondency over the death a month
ago Of her mother with whom she had
lived all her life is believed to have
been the motive which prompted Miss
Henshaw to kill herself.
Uusually careful preparations had
been made by Miss Henshaw to success
fully carry out her intention. Yester-
day her niece, a little girl Of twelve
years, spent the afternoon with her.
They went out together and Miss Hem
shaw stopped at q store and purchased
the rubber tube through which to in
hale, the gas. Returning home, sho
found that the tube she had bought
was not long enough to reach from the
chandelier to the bed. She went out
again and bought another tube several
feet longera Then she kissedq her niece
good-by and sent her home.
= There was no note, but everything
about the room showed that the deed
was premeditated. The cracks about
the doors and windows had been caulk-
ed with paper and cloth, SO that none
Of the gas could escape from the room.
The door to the apartment was not
locked, however, and employees of the
place whp were attracted by the smell
Of gas had no difficulty in getting In
her apartment.
A physician was summoned and pro-
pounced life extinct. Coroner hewitt.
after visiting the apartment, said It
was clear case of suicide.
On the bureau were several packages
which Miss Henshaw had tied up and
addressed to friends and relatives. These
packages contained personal belongings
which she wanted certain persons to
have. On a piece of paper was written
the address Of her brother, who is the
proprietor of lunch room in New
York avenue. The brother told Coroner
hewitt that his sister had brooded over
her mothers death. and that he be-
Ieved that was the reason she killed
herself.
