FARMER COMMITS SUICIDE
P.A. TAURANGA, Nov. 12. Missing since Tuesday morning, the body of Clyde Villers Taylor, a prominent farmer of Tepuna, aged 42, was found in a drain on his own property under two feet of running water with a shotgun across his knees. The inquest to-day disclosed that Taylor was worried over his herd and was working too hard, with no assistance, on his farm. A verdict was returned that death was the result-of a gunshot wound; self inflicted while mentally deranged. .• 1 t , • 1 \ 1 • (1
