Kiefer was dead he telephoned to the
corner. Kiefer told Cook about two
months ago that if he did not feel well
he would kill himself. He spoke of his
brother John being in the wholesale
business at New York. Mr. Bester
also testified to deceased saying he
would kill himself. The jury brought in
a verdict that deceased came to his
death by hemorrhage, caused by cutting
and severing the artery of his left arm
by his own hand.
Kiefer was in the citv on Friday and
appeared somewhat despondent, and it
is thought after he had gone home that
night he must have committed suicide,
as he had been dead several days. He
