OF
Uddy of W. A. llarbee Carried Back
to Duihain Last Night By His
Brother Act Supposed to
Be Result of Busine
Troubles.
The body of W. A. Barbee, the
young man who committed suicide
yesterday in room No. 34 of the Yar
borough House, was taken to his
home iu Durham on the early morn
ing train this morning.
His brother, Walter F. Barboe, of
Durham, in response to a telegram,
arrived fyom Durham on the Keys
ville' train at 6:25 last evening and
took the body back to Durham.
There is nothing more to add to
the account, as the Times covered
the matter fully yesterday afternoon.
Within half an hour all of the details
were In print, and there is absolutely
nothing more to add.
The unfortunate man, as stated,
was W. A. Barbee, of Durham, a son
of Justice of the Peace G. A. Barbee,
a well known man in Durham, who
has reached the advanced age of 71
and is' well thought of by all who
know him.
.When Barbee left Durham, after
losing his position with the Durham
Bull Tobdcco Company Tuesday
morning, he had about 600 or $750,
anq seemed to be in a very, despond
ent mood. He came to Raleigh, and
drank more or less for some time,
but did not get drunk, He was a
frequent visitor to East Raleigh, and
a woman in that section says tnat
he: had $400 when there, and said
that he was going to kill himself, but
she thought nothing. of it, as this is
a very usual threat made by men
who v frequent those places, when
under . the Influence of drink and
troubled.
.Besides his father he leaves one
brother and five sisters, three mar
ried and two single. Ills sisters seem
especially to have weighed upon: his
mind for to all whom he confided his
troubtes he spoke of the distress hia
business misfortunes Would give
