Man Found Dead in Rocking Chair in Frederick
The body of Isaac Christian Hoover, about 56, was found in a yard behind his boarding house on West Fifth Street this afternoon. Authorities ruled the death a suicide after a brief investigation noting despondency and a prior conversation with neighbor Mrs. Robert Harrison. Hoover, formerly of Waynesboro Pennsylvania, had been employed at Frederick Iron and Steel and boarded with Miss Bruce Taylor. He left a dog that carried his cane, and he had no known Frederick relatives, with sisters in West Virginia.
