DELBROOK, Philip

Philip Delbrook, the twenty-five year old son of Mr. Henry Delbrooke, committed suicide last midnight at his home at Wellersburg, Pa., near Mt. Savage, under circumstances that are most distressing. He had been ill with typhoid fever for about one week and was in charge of a nurse. His wife was lying ill of the same ailment in an adjoining room. The nurse, after looking after Mr. Delbrook, went into the other room to look after Mrs. Delbrook, when the report of the pistol shot was heard in Mr. Delbrook's room. The nurse hurried back to the room to find that the young, man had shot himself over the right temple with a revolver. He died shortly after. Mr. Delbrooke is survived by his wife and two small children, and his father and mother. The unfortunate affair was due to the young man being out of his mind from the fever with which he was suffering. He is said to have been a man of splendid character and his death is greatly deplored by that whole community.
