Jack Suggs End His Life
   One day last week Jack Suggs, who resides about 8 miles Northwest of town, committed suicide by shooting himself with a shot gun, the whole load entering his head and almost severing it from the body.
   The tragedy occurred near the home of Mr. Hillard Crutchfield, it being reported that Suggs and his wife were enroute to the home of his wife's father and that just before reaching the house Suggs, after a brief consultation with his wife, instructed her to go on the house and he would not go as her people were not friendly to him.  As they parted he told his wife it would be a long time before they met again, and it was only a short while afterwards that a gun report was heard.  The cause of the rash act is not known.
