Stealing himself away from a sick wife to whom he had just given a dose of medicine, and three young children, P. B. Edwards, a well known white farmer, residing about six miles north of Lexington, went out behind his garden early Monday morning and with a oS-calibre Harrington and Richardson revolver, blew out his brains. When he was foune a tew moments later by members of the household he was in an unconscious condition. Dr. E. P. Derrick, of Lexington, was hastily summoned and an examination of the wound showed that the bail had entered just above the right ear, and the case was pronounced a hopeless one, but with the hope that an operation might save his life and as a last resort the injured man was taken to the Columbia Hospital on the 2 o'clock train. But an Operation was not performed, the hospital surgeons agreeing with Dr. Derrick, that it would be of no avail, and h9 died about half past nine yesterday morning. The remains were brought to Lexington on the afternoon train and the body" will be carried to the White church, near his late home, this morning and the burial will take place at 11 o'clock. Just what caused Mr. Edwards to take his life when a wife and three small children were dependent upon him for food and raiment will perhaps never be known, but it is a well known fact that he had brooded over finanj cial affairs for several weeks and, it i is said, that on more than one occasion he had threatened to take his I life. In fact, it is said, that no later j than Sunday he told some member of [ his family that he was going to put i an end to his troubles. He was about | 45 years old. -^9- J | Zinc Metal Made into Qzide of Zinc, I And then combined with white lead, j is U9ed to make L. & M. PAINT.
