Identity Revealed of Covington Man Who Attempted Suicide
Physicians at City Hospital reported that the young man who attempted suicide at Van Camp's hardware store Monday morning is recovering barring blood poisoning. He identified himself as O H Almerth of West Thirty-fourth Street and Covington Kentucky. He had traveled to the city Saturday seeking to die unseen and refused to disclose his relatives. He blamed financial distress and trouble with a young woman in Covington for his despondency. He had removed all clothing tags and acknowledged the tailor J H Lowls of Boxtown Massachusetts in a partial identification. He spoke reluctantly about the woman and his family, requesting they remain ignorant of his actions.
