Coroner Henry last week held an inquest over the body of James G. Hutchison who committed suicide on Nov 8. He had not been well, physically or mentally for some days past and has frequently said that he had no desire to live. Yesterday morning he got up at his usual hour and while his wife was preparing breakfast he went out to feed the stock. Not returning, Mrs. Hutchison went in search of him but could not find him about the barn. Returning to the house, she looked into the woodhouse where she thought she saw him standing and called to him. Receiving no reply she went to him and found him hung up by a rope attached to a beam above. She gave the alarm and assistance being secured the body which was yet warm was cut down, but life was extinct. - thanks to "S":
