He got off the train on the opposite Bide of train from depot and went direct to his dwelling where bis son, John, ; liyes, conse: quently but few people knew he was here. Me talked to , his wife and son for about an hour be fore noon concerning his return to chain g ar g, as to whether he would go back and serve out his time or whether he would go back' where he had been in Georgia, since he ran off from chain gang- r They say he seemed very much undecided as to what he would do and never did say what he would do. After .dinner he told his little daughter, who is about five years of age, the only daughter he has liyr ing and whom he always seemed so devoted to, good-bye and was over heard by his wile. She came out o cook room and asked him, as he was walking through the entry, : where he was going was he going to Sal isbury and if so she would send him in buggy. To this he turned to her and said- "gcodbye Mollie" and walked on up stairs. Mrs. Uline walked on to foot of stairs and asked him if he was going to sleep awhile. To this no reply came and she went on up stairs after him id opened the door which he. had closed after him, just in time to see the pistol come out of his left hip pocket and lifted to . his left Side and fired. - The ball entered the chest just to left side of sternum and between 5th and 6th ribs, pass ing through heart downwards and lodged just under skin of the back on right side. He bought the pistol he killed himself with in Atlanta, Gal, as he came through, it is thought and is generally believed with the intention of killing him. self with it. ; They say he seemed very much troubled from the time he arriyed till he killed himself. He lost flesh since he left China Groye till he hardly looked like himself. It is generally thought that he came home with the intention of killing himself. He was buried Thursday at Mt. Zion church. Dr. Crc well was called in imme d iately after the fire, but before he got there! not over three minutes, Cline was dead. It is believed that it was arranged for him to come home and serve out his term to save his property but his courage failed him. .
