board of the New York Cen

death at his fashionable home

Young was found in the bil
liard room of his home by
members of the family. Lt.
F. A. Mead of the Palm Beach
Police Department, who was
called to the Young home
about noon, said members of
his family reported that the
fiancier had been "despond
ent the last few days."
Mead said Young had pull
ed both triggers of a double
barreled shotgun. Both bar
rels fired. He was hit in the
head.
"He was seated in a chair
at the time," Mead said.
Mead said Mrs. Young was
at home at the time. An em
ployee of the family said that
Ydung came to Palm Beach in
Decembert o spend the winter,
the custom he has followed for
a couple of decades.
Mead said no other reason
except his recent despond

for Younger's actions. There
were no notes or letters left
explaining the suicide. Young
was the central figure of a
proxy battle for control of
the New York Central Rail

Motors, and the Alleghany

Doctors estimated that
death came instantly about
10 a.m.," Mead said. "Mem
bers of his family did not find
him until two hours later."
