Suicide attempt by Pittsburg youth at Gibson House
Samuel Clark, son of a wealthy coal merchant from Pittsburg, attempted suicide at the Gibson House Cincinnati last Friday. He died at 3 yesterday morning from a gunshot wound entering the right side and likely lodging behind the left eye. Clark, about 24, was known in Madigan as jovial and fond of dissipation, and he reportedly wished to die saying he was tired of life. The phrenologist remark appears unrelated to the incident.
