June 28, 1892 Nashville, Tenn., June 19. -- Mrs. W. H. Clark, the wife of a well-to-do farmer living at New Hope, in this county, hanged herself in her room last night. Some unknown trouble with her father and the recent marriage of a sixteen-year- old daughter, who was going to move to Texas, preyed on her mind, and last week she tried to shoot her head off with a gun. She has been watched since, but last night got away from the daughter, who was watching her, wrote a farewell letter on one of the children's slates and hanged herself in the kitchen.
