planned Of his stomach hurting him
and went to the medicine closet pre-
sumably to get something to ease the
pain. When he returned from the
room. Mrs. Sizemore detected the odor
Of carbolic acid on his breath and saw
that he was suffering intense pain.
The physicians were called, but moth
ing could be done and the aged man
passed away shortly after 10 o'clock.
He was able to speak very little after
the fatal dose had been swallowed.
The rumor afloat this morning that
his death was cuicide, was declared
to be absolutely without foundation,
for, as far as anyone was able to tell,
he could have had no motive for such
an act, and was in the main iovial and
happy.
The deceased leaves awife and sew

is said will meet the approval of bank
