SUICIDE OF MR. FREEMAN CHANCE: Mr. Freeman Chance committed suicide at his home in Munnerlyn Friday morning last by stabbing himself with a pocket knife in the region of the heart. Mr Chance was in bad health and despondent. We are told that he talked of the matter several times and told some one that he attempted it before but that the knife pricked the skin and deterred him. But said that the next time he tried it he intended putting a piece of paper under the point of the knife until he struck the fatal blow.
He was a single man aged about 58 years and was occupying a room a short distance from the house of a relative. Early Friday morning a nephew went to his room to inquire after him, when he quietly informed him that he had stabbed himself. He lived only a short time afterwards. He was well liked by every one, and his remains were followed to Habersham where they were interred by a large number of relatives and friends, who deplore his tragic end.
