York man dies by gas after self inflicted wounds

D C Woolridge aged about 63 ended his life in his York home kitchen by inhaling illuminating gas after slashing his throat and right wrist with a razor. He apparently considered an ice pick but discarded it, leaving the weapon on the table along with the razor. He had cared for an invalid wife earlier and leaves a daughter Mrs Anna Zell of Waynesboro. The report notes rheumatic pain and loss of work as motives and lists other local notices including church transfers, band activities, and community events.
