KILLED WIFE TO END AGONY
9riton oassed Woman He Loved, In

His Own Life.

"The doctor gives ancslhesia to
hopeless agony. The soldier spares a
thrust or shot to writing com
rade. Any decent man shoots his
women folk TO save them from dis
honor
Such was the explanation made by
T.. Il. Eardley for killing himself and
his wife In their little cottage mt
scarborough, says an English ex-
change.
Mrs. Eardlcy was a hopeless invalid,
and her disease had developed to the
point where II became necessary to
place her In home for the mentally
afflicted. In the letter from which
the extracts above ure made, Eardlcy
said:
For two years now my wife has
lived In hourly torment. Her condi-
tlon grows daily worse. can do moth
Ing more for her; my will TO live and
win Is broken. There IL nothing he.
fore her but the madhouse. without
even the alienation have been able
TO bring.
However human law may regard
the matter, my conscience justliles
me; indeed. should live n coward In
my own esteem II I failed her In this
extremity"
Even In his sorrow Eardley thought
IT those who would discover the trag-
edy. and In the letter he wrote to the
friend telling him Of his dctermlna-
tIon. he added:
"Thc bodies of myself and my dear
wife will be found together In the lit
tie dressing room. Great care must
he taken In entering the house. the
dressing room and communicating
bedroom will be full Of gas"
After hearing all the testimony and
the reading of the letter the Jury
found that the dead man took his
own life and that of his wife while he
was temporarily of unsound mind ana
added nm expression Of sympathy with
the relatives.
