Miss May Dellenbach Receives a Last Message
From Fred je Malcolm Who KUled Him
self Yesterday Happy in His Love .'
-"Pray for me" Is the plea In a letter
received this morning; by . Miss May
Dellenbach from Fred J. Malcolm, eyho
shot himself dead yesterday morning- tn
the-Gilbert nous at Third and Taylor
streets.
I Miss Dellenbach v Is the- "May" re
ferred to. in a note left by the suicide
and published In yesterday's Journal.
Miss Dellenbach and her mother declare
that ' Malcolm did not commit suicide
because of any trouble with his sweet
heart. They believe he was despondent
over the low state of his finances, and
brooding-, took his life.
Malcolm's last pathetlo messare re
ceived by Miss Dellenbach this morning-,
reached her as she was leaving her
home, 620 Clay street, bound for J. P.
FJnley's undertaking shop where lies
the body . of the man who had been pay
lngr attention to her for three years. It
was written evidently the night previ
ous to the suicide, and it Is believed was
posted by some friend, who . did not
dream of Its tragic contents. It was
postmarked yesterday, end war probably
mailed Jate lh the forenoon, otherwise
it would have reached the house last
night.. ' ':"V
When she read the letter Miss Dellen
bach turned . back Into the house and.
taking Malcolm's photograph from its
conspicuous place on the mantelpiece,
put it away. She did not want a dally
reminder of her grief. ..
"My daughter had kept company with
Mr. Malcolm for three years," said Mrs.
Dellenbach this morning, when seen at
the homo of Mrs. J. W. Thurman. "There
was no. trouble whatever between them.
Mr. Malcolm called last Sunday after
noon, remained at our home until In
the evening.- - He had never seemed more
cheerful or hopeful. j He said never a
word that would convey the Impresston
that : he had any Intention of killing
himself. - The letter my daughter re
ceived this, morning shows there was no
trouble between themur In- It Malcolm1
asks her to pray for him, and says he
Is sorry, he had to' die, but he was In
trouble Over money matters."
"I never saw a couple get along betr
ter than Mr. Malc61m and Miss, Dellen
bach," said Mrs. Thurman. 'They were
not engaged to be married, but I always
supposed they .surely intended to be. It
Is very sad, and has thrown" the family
Into great grief, Mr. Malcolm was a
fine young man, and none of his friends
ever once thought of him committing
Suicide. V Miss Dellenbach will attend
his funeral tomorrow."
Miss Dellenbach Is a wen known and
very popular young woman, a Portland
born girl and formerly was employed by
Olds. Wortman A King. ,.
. The funeral services will be held to
morrow afternoon at 2 o'clock from the
Finley chapel, Rev. William T. Kerr,

F. R. Burdett In Montavilla aggregates
8,270 pounds. , Of the 18 guests, 10 per

10th. 9th : and 12th of February, and
whose ages are 64, 67 and 62 years, respectively.
In response to the complaints of east
side residents regarding the condition
of Division street and Grand avenue.
Mayor Williams and City Engineer El-
Itott made a personal Inspection of those
tnoroughfares this morning- and in tho
words of the mayor "found certain
conditions which, must be remedied."
"We found that soma of the cross
walks and portions of the sidewalks
should be , fixed," explained the mayor,
and will see that It is done. I under
stand tnat the ruel company which laid
the walks has . expressed a .willingness
to do whatever is necessary.
"Grand avenue is now in bad shape
and along portions of the roadway a
un-eiigin wooaen oovering nas been
put down. , This is not wide enough
for two vehicles to pass and has thrown
much dirt and mud on the sidewalks.
The portions of Division street have
been graded at-different times and the
excavations have not all been carried
down to the proper level, but when the
thoroughfare is fixed up permanently
this will be done away with."
It is possible that a concentrated ef
fort will now be made to effect a per
manent Improvement of , the avenue.

to old-fashioned days when linen waa linen and used to look and

too slow, so strong chemicals chloride of lime were resorted to
