Suicide
On Wednesday morning last, a man named Jared Dunn, a very respectable citizen of Warren county, put an end to his existence by hanging himself in his own barn. It appears he was subject to a weakness of mind when anything troubled him, from an injury he had once received in the skull; and had the misfortune to be called on the jury in the case of Jacob Hook, for life and death, who was acquitted, but same of his enemies had the imprudence to cast reflections on Mr. Dunn as to the decision of the Jury, which is supposed to have been the cause of his committing this horrid act. He has left a wife and seven children to mourn his untimely end. - Democrat.
