A Halifax despatch says, Robert LEWIS, an employee of the city works department, sent a bullet through his forehead in his workshop Tuesday morn. The deceased enlisted in the army 44 years ago and, according to the pension list, belongs to Bangor in Wales. He served through the Crimean War, came here after that campaign, and has been employed on the city works since 1872. A short time ago the city marshal received a letter from Grace JONES of Bangor, Wales asking for information concerning her father, who she understood was employed in Halifax. He corresponded with her sister, Mrs. Margaret HUGHES, Tynynrandd, Angelsea, from whom Grace received her information, but the sister would not give his address and said that he was living under an assumed name. She further stated in her letter that her father enlisted 44 years ago and served in Crimea. When he enlisted she was three years old. Word was sent to her by the city marshal and it is thought this news had some effect on him. (see original)
