Last Saturday night the word was criculated that Mrs. Katherine M. 
Carmichael, a lady who had been an invalid for some time had 
committed suicide by taking morphine. On investiagation this was 
found to be the case.  The deceased was 53 years of age and was a 
native of St. Louis, Mo. but had resided i nthis city for some 
time.  She had been an invalid for a long time and several times 
had said she would do the deed which she at last committed.  A post 
mortem examination was held by Drs. L.C. Toney and C.L. Edmundson 
and an inquest was held.  The verdict returned was that the 
deceased came to her death from poison administered by her own 
hand, and by a complication of diseases.  The remains were buried
