Norfolk Virginian November 15, 1894

Yesterday morning about 5 o'clock the residents of Lee Street, between Middleton 
and Pine, were aroused by cries in the street and investigation revealed the 
fact that Mr. Alex Belote, a well-known citizen, had taken his own life.
Mr. Belote was about 50 years of age and a brother of Mr. James L. Belote, of 
Norfolk.  He leaves a widow and six children to mourn his untimely death.  He 
had been until lately employed in the mill business. Since last August he has 
been in the oyster business with Mr. J.W. Parker.
He was a member of the Jr. O.U.A.M. and will get $250 and also a member of 
Palestine Tent of Rechabites, of Norfolk, from which his heirs will receive some 
small insurance.
His funeral will take place this afternoon at 2:30 from his late residence.
