A FARMER'S SUICIDE
Sherman, Texas, November 21 - This morning just about daylight George Hall, a well known farmer, living 3 miles from Pottsboro, was found dead, hanging by a rope from a limb of a tree just a little distance from his residence.  Deceased has been for some time subject to fits of insanity and it is supposed that it was in one of these that he took his own life.
