DISAPPOINTED IN LOVE. Miss Sallic Ham of Darlington Takes Her Own Life. Darlington, Jan. 18.? Miss Sallic Ham committed suicide here today about 2.30 o* clock. She was boarding with her cousin, J. K. Doyle, and attending the graded school and had just returned from a visit to her mother, Mrs. J. F. Ham of Timmonsville. Not the slightest intimation on her part was given of her intention. She was abont 10 years old and had declared she did not intend go ing to school any longer. Her mother and brother came up today to see her, and she appeared to be in her usual spirits, and they had just dined with her and left the house, where she was staying, when the fatal shot was fired. They were overtaken and notified of the tragedy, and returned to town at once. Mr. and Mrs. Doyle were dining af ter the other members of the family, including Miss Mam, had dined, and ai they look their places at tho table thoy heard a pistol sh >t ring out in the hous e. Investigation revealed Miss Ham lying on the floor in her room, with a smok ing revolver by her left side, the fin gers of her left hand burned with ; ?w der, and a bullet hole in her chest, just above her heart. Her clothing was on fire at the point of entrance of the bul let. Mrs. Doyle extinguished the fire before it had done any damage, the place burned being not much larger than the bullet hole. Miss Ham had just returned to la r residence from a visit, with Mrs. Doyl<, down-town, whore they had purchased new hats, and two minutes before t! 0 fatal shot was fired she was showing the new hats to the members of the family with apparently much elation. It is reported that. Miss Ham wished to marry a young- man of the Tim monsvillo section, and that, instead of consenting to the marriage, her mothor had sent her t< Darlington to . chool, hi order to got her away from her homo, ami to prevent, if possible, the mar riage, to which she was very much op posed. Coroner.i. N. Clanton held an inquest this afternoon, and the verdict of the jury was that the decoased came to her death by a solf-inflicted wound. Cross Hill Personals.
