Patton

  A poor Hungarian named Mike Pebrumick, but commonly called, "Starry," 
committed suicide last Saturday evening by hanging.  He went into one 
of the closets at the Palmer House and taking his belt make a noose 
around his neck, fastening the other end to the water pipe.  He then 
stepped from the [word unclear] and strangled to death. No case for the 
rash act can be learned though it is evident he was determined to die 
as it was only by bending his legs that he could remain suspended.  
When discovered he was dead.  His body was removed to an undertaking 
establishment and was buried on Monday.
