From Geneva Gazette 3 August 1894Suicide at Gorham - Last Sunday Miss Hattie, daughter of James Robson of Gorham, aged 25 years, committed suicide by hanging. A correspondent of the Roch. Dem. & Chron. gives the following particulars:She arose and dressed herself very carefully and as she came into the kitchen spoke to her father as usual. He noticed her go out of the house but did not think strange of it until Emma Robson, an older sister, asked where Hattie was. Search was immediately made and in a few minutes she was found hanging in the wagon house. She had fastened a rope around a large beam by standing on the seat of a top buggy and then standing on the cross bar she had let herself down. She was dead when found. Miss Robson had not been feeling well lately and the doctors say it was caused by an unsound mind. She was an earnest worker in the Presbyterian Church and the Y. P. S. C. E. of Gorham. _______________________________________________ No banners. No pop-ups. No kidding. Make My Way your home on the Web - http://www.myway.com
