McCormick committed suicide at Hawkinsville Tuesday morning at 8 o’clock, the eve of his wedding, by shooting himself with a pistol. Unusual interest is attached to the suicide by reason of the fact that Mr. McCormick was to be married to Miss Mattie Lewis, a daughter of the late John F. Lewis, on the following night. Mr. McCormick had spells of moodiness, bordering at times on strangeness and the excitement attendant upon his marriage is supposed to have superinduced a mental condition which led him to do the sad deed.
