                     ALBERT MARSHALL COMMITS SUICIDE
       Retired Navy Yard Worker's Act Attributed To Depression and Heat

Albert N. Marshall, 70, retired Navy Yard worker, committed suicide by 
shooting himself in the head with a .38 caliber pistol last night at 7:40 
o'clock in a garage at the rear of his home at 733 West Thirty-fifth Street.
Members of the family told Detective P.W. Adams, who investigated, that Mr. 
Marshall had seemed worried in recent months and that he had been depressed 
by the intense heat of the past few days.
Mr. Marshall was taken to the Memorial Hospital by a neighbor immediately 
after the shooting, but was pronounced dead at 8:10 p.m. by a physician at 
the hospital.
The body was removed to the funeral home of E. Lee Cox & Brother, 631 
Westover Avenue.
Mr. Marshall was the son of the late Capt. A.N. Marshall and had been a 
resident of Norfolk for 20 years.  In addition to his wife, Mrs. Mattie B. 
Marshall, he is survived by one daughter, Miss Lelia J. Marshall; three 
sons, Albert N. Marshall, Jr. and Richard M. Marshall, of Norfolk and W.N. 
Marshall, of Detroit; two brothers, Capt. Walter Marshall, Norfolk and Capt. 
Joe Marshall, South Norfolk and two sisters, Mrs. Anna Milholland, of 
Indianapolis and Mrs. W.B. Shafer, Sr., of Norfolk.
Funeral arrangements had not been completed last night.
