SUICIDE'S PATHETIC MITTEL—A deeply path chic story of suicide is reported from Kidderminster, in connection with an inquest held on the body of William elidney Moore, aged seventy. Moore was a clock repairer and cleaner, and bad, it is said, done fairly well till of late years; but trouble bad come upon him, his wife died, and he bad lived alone, growing, as a witness said, "very low and melancholy." He had been a member of the Weaver.' Association, but Was not on the superannuation her, having been voluntarily paid out—no doubt to obtain immediate means of subsistence • for wotk fell off, and his powers began to fail. "Often," said one witness, "the neighbours had taken him a bit, or he would have had nothing to eat." At last poor Moore Was conipelled to apply for help to the pariah. This was granted for a limited time, which expired last week. The guardian., it is said, would have renewed their aid on application, but Moore "would not go to the board for anything." Horror of " the parish" is stamped upon the letter he addressed, "To the oornuer who investigates this case," in which lie wrote: "1 on as sane at any man on the jury, anti won't; put any difficulty in your deliberations. I end my life deliberately i.y carbolic acid, fur I find I can live no longer as s pauper." Another letter, addressed to whoever might find the body, was as followe 3—" April 106, 1395. Hear follow sufferers and all whom it may ouncern,—l du now declare that I have finished the fight against a miserable existence, and want no sympathy now. I have tried hard to get an honest living, and have woefMly failed. For four years and a-half I have bad no regular employ, only a casual job, and I find I can carry on no loager. I therefore come to the conclusion to end it, and ask you to forgive my troubling you wish the anxiety of a pauper, by naive William S. Moore." Even in this sad extremity the po r clot kmaker could exhibit a desire to deal I honestly with his fellow-men which speaks well for his personal character. "Please (he wrote to his nephew) see Mr. Chambers as regards the rent and what in the house belonged to me. All the clocks are mine, and should go a good way towards ths rent, which is all I owe in the world to my knowledge." The jury found that the deceased committed suicide while temporarily insane.
