Japanese General Nogi and Countess Die by Seppuku in Tokio
The renowned General Nogi and his wife committed ritual suicide by sword and stabbing after attending Emperor Mat Subito's funeral. They prepared the act to coincide with the Emperor's departure, drank a farewell cup, and died as the gun signaling the funeral procession sounded. Nogi, famed for Port Arthur victory in 1904, and the Countess were found dead after a student alerted aid. The couple, deeply tied to Japanese military history, left a dramatic, mournful scene in Akasaka Japan.
