Bernard McClain 
Died from Taking Carbolic Acid

Greensburg, May 18 -- "Ever see a man asleep with his eyes open?"  asked Bernard McClain as he 
dropped into a chair on the porch of the Hecla Hotel at Hecla Saturday afternoon.

W. H. Myers, to whom the remark was addressed, was about to make a laughing reply when his 
attention was attracted by the other's pallor.  In half a minute, McClain was dead from Carbolic acid, 
self-administered.

Bernard McClain was a brother of James A. McClain, Cashier of the First National Bank of Spangler 
and of Frank McClain of Bellefonte.

The interment was made at Bellefonte on Monday.
