TO death TOGETHER

READING, Pa. March 17.-Over
zealousness in religious matters and
what is believed TO have been a de-
sire to offer themselves a sacrifice to
God are believed TO be the reasons
for the double suicide of Mr.. and Mrs.
Edward II. Seiverd, aged 40 and As
years, respectively, whose bodies were
found yesterday hanging in the barn
on their farm near this city.
They had been ardent supporters
OF Billy Sunday and eagerly read
every word about him that appeared
in print. They took an enthusiastic
part in the revival services in prog
ress for a month in the United Breth-
rem Church at Elverson. Last Sunday
their oldest son. Jacob aged 10 years,
was baptized.
Returning home they told him that
he would not have a father and moth
er to look after him and his brother
much longer, and that they would
soon go to the Lord. They told him
where the family case was hidden and
discussed other business matters
with him. The boy dismissed the
matter until he found the bodies Of
his parents hanging in the barn. In
one of the fathers pockets was found
a note stating that they had commit
ted suicide. and giving directions for
settlement OF his affairs The double
funeral will take place Friday.
