Thomas Wright, who lives about a
mile and a half west of ShefReld,
this county, committed suidde last
Tuesday afternoon by shooting him
self through the head with a pistol.
Mr,:Wnght had been hauling lum
ber* that morning, and had returned
home in time for dinner. After din
ner he went out to his garden and
did some hoeing. He started for his
house, and passed his wife, who was
washing. He told her to give hiin
her hand, which she ^d. He th^
turned her loose and wait into the
house. She thoBidtt be had heard
the telephone bell ring, and had gone
toonswerit. He wmit into his room,
. and polled a trunk up against the
door, and secured his pistol. About
ibis time, one of his daughters passr
ed the window and looked In. He
told her goodbye,, and she noticed
that he bad his pistol in his hand.
She told him not to do anything with
it, and started around to the front
door. Before she arrived there she
heard a shot, and heard her father
fall to the floor. When help reach
ed Mr. Wright he was dead. The
ballet had pierced his head on one
side and ^ne through* coming out
--on the opposite side. Death was in
stantanious.. Mr. Wright had ap
peared to be in his usual health, and
none of his family had the least idea
that he meant ^,to attempt suicide.
It is said that his rash act may have
been caused by the death of one of
his daughters, which occurred at
Concord a few days previous to this
time. His daughter had left home
against his wlU and married a man
at that place. He did not know of
her death until after she was buried.
