I ask, as my last request, that, the people of this hotel will follow my remains to the graveyard and that I should be buried in my military clothes ???my white coat and pants that hang on the wall. George Morse Lawton. La* Vegas, New Mexico. Optic. A Sit*l cast? of suicide claims the chronicler???s attention to-day. The victim, and there is al ways a victim in suicides, was a young south enter named George Morse J-awton, scarcely twenty years of age, prepossessing in appear ance, gentlemanly in manner and polished in conversation???sad indeed is his untimely end. Young Lawton came to Lies Vegas on Sun day, the 25th instant, and went to the Stunner house, registering his right name and enter ing his place of residence as Griffin, Georgia. When lie appeared at the hotel he was dressed in the regulation striped pantaloons of a millitary school, but wore a citizen's dress in other particulars. His trunk followed on a train the next day ami when it had been sent up to his room he changed his dress and appeared in n civil ian's suit throughout. On Monday lie became acquainted with the guests of the house and was soon looked upon us a hale fellow well met???one of those jolly, open hearted south ern boys who liorrotv little of the cares of the world anil who have no second thought of the morrow???that is what liis general deportment indicated. He joined the circles of chit chat and talked much of southern life, his history ami enthused upon the exhilirating effect of the high altitude and balmy air of Las Vegas on his bodily temperament, ft agreed with hint greatly, he said, and lie fell like a new man. lie played billiards and became gen erally liked by the young men at Judge Sum ner's hospitable board. * It: conversation with a clerk yesterday morning, and in fact with several guests oft he hotel, Lawton exhibited great interest in pocket firearms and asked particularly which were the most deadly weapons. The boys pulled out their guns, varied as their collec tion necessarily was, and explained to the young stranger the leading qualities of the different makes. One man had a Colt's 44, ntiother had a double action Colt's IW, some one else showed a single action 32???*???n tender foot's gun,??? as they are called by the barna cles. The clerk produced a British bull dog of 41 calibre. Lawton seemed so favorably impressed with that pistol, and in the after noon lie went down town and bought a sec ond hand one for $7. Last night young Lawton and Fred Haag, one of the hoarders at the judge's,sallied down town and went to the Occidental, where they played several games of billiards with varying success to Lawton. He was a fair shot with a billiard cue, and held an even game with Iliutg, playing him without odds. After the games the players returned to the Sumner and sat for awhile in the office, chatting with the boys that were there. They talked of the war, of Lincoln's assassination and Garfield???s death. Haag and Lawton???s rooms adjoined, and they went up about 10 o???clock, each re tiring to liis respective room. Haag went to bed but did not fall asleep. He beard Lawton in the next room busily writing or rending, he could not tell wliicli. After an hour???s occupation in this way Law- ton went down stairs and out into the??? night, remaining no longer than ten minutes, when he entered the house and went upstairs again. In his room Hang heard hint tako off??? his coat and shoes. After mov ing around the room a few minutes Haag was startled liy a pistol shot and jumped out of bed. When behind the night clerk rushed into Lawton???s room they found him lying on the bed in an unconscious condition. A British hull dog lay near by and blood from young Lawton's bead told the story of bis sad fate???lie had killed himself. The bullet, it was found, had entered the skull at a point nearly two inches above the right ear, ranging down- ~ ward, remaining in the head. The poor fel low wits suffering from liis wound but was un able to speak a word. A doctor was hastily summoned, hut the services of the physieiaii were of no avail, and in an hour the spirit of the young cadet was reclaimed by its Maker. Judge Steele was aroused and aiding in the capacity of coroner, he called a jury, ex amined the dead body and at 2 o???clock this morning returned the following coroner???s ver- diet: Before Justice Steele in predact No 29. San Mi guel county. New Mexico: We, the undersigned, justice of the peace and jury, do hereby certify Unit we have this day held uu inquest over the dead laxly of George M Union, and we find that lie came to Ids death by a pistol shot tired by his own hands. Given under our hands and seals this 28th day of .'September, issi. W. Steele, J. P??? and jury. 1 .awton???s body, according to his own re quest, written just before liis death, was clothed in hLs military uniform???1???ark blue striped pantaloons, white jacket, polka dot cravat, etc., and arc lying in the sample room of the Sumner house, awaiting telegrams from Georgia. It cannot be said at this writing just what disposition will lie made of the remains, but they will probably be buried in the Odd Fellows??? cemetery, west side, as it seems to have been I .a w ton's wish to be interred here. Nothing will be done until to-morrow, at any event. , As we have tit-fore stated, young Lawton wrote considerable of his intentions and de signs, before committing the rash act that cut him off from a life that might have been one of honor. Upon bis table was found an un sealed envelope bearing the inscription, "Read and send to Mrs. M. L. Lawton, Griffin. Georgia." Inclosed were several sheets of Ju>per, scrawled upon in a plain, but rather irregular hand, the contents of which is here with published. It will repay the reader to pi over the notes carefully. \Ve publish them verbatim: I. \s Vegas, September 27, 1*81???My Pear Mother: After thinking awhile 1 have come to the oonclu sion that it would tie best for me to die here I am u boy nearly twenty seam of age that has been brought up in luxury all of his life and now I am M'nt out in the far west to work for my board when if you and my relations had of given me a chance to do something 1 might have been a useful man you know] have asked you to let me go on your plantation and try to make a living 1 think you would have done it if it was not for my relations who has made out that they were my best friends and have Jtriod to keep me "down and 1 believe they have been successful until now I find nm an outcast. poor and friendless, while they arv rolling in wealth and lux ury of this life they are with their crumbs like the slog in the manger they won't have them themslves and they won't let me have them I may have been a wild and bad boy but If 1 had a chance I would have done better but no you allowed your self to be influenced by my (best friends and relations) and I was allowed no chance at all 1 wish you would tp- write to Kicliard and tell him to send for my trunk it will boat the Sumner house Las Vegas] have been ben* since Sunday night my board bill is *5 ????r$6 I spent the last cent 1 had fora pistol to kill my self with and there fore I can't pay my board bill I expect to I will be allowed a decent resting place for ray bones people may say that I was entry out I am as sane as any of them and you will know I never get drunk People say a man that kills himself isa coward.
