Jasper County Democrat, Volume 5, Number 36, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 13 December 1902 — Dying Sensation. [ARTICLE]

Dying Sensation.

Dr. Foote of Kansas, who committed suicide recently by taking poison, left the following note describing his struggles: “1 feel all right at the present time, but know that the poison is doing its work. I burn, but feel a sort of soothing sensation flow over me and a desire to go to sleep. 1 am sure that I have not much longer to live. It is now'after 3 o’clock, and I feel I am dying. My head is clear, and my brain works perfectly. But now I feel the spasm coming, and then I will be gone. Goodby.”
