Suicide of Henry Lacey

Suicide of Henry Lacey at Farmington yesterday


Farmington Kalam MI, December 4th – Henry Lacey, on going into his barn at noon, found the dead body of his brother James hanging to a beam. Life had been extinct for some time. Lacey was formerly employed as an engineer on the steamer D. C. Whitney and had been ashore but a short time, religious insanity and despondency are supposed to be the cause that led up to the deed.
