  • Notes // Примечания: “Russian Ends Life In Bath At Hotel On Range Road. ...The body of Alexander V. Restov, an unemployed mining engineer, who had been residing at the Royal Hotel, 77 Range Road, was found in his bath on Monday morning. The water in the tub was quite clear, suggesting natural death causes at the time. But a search of the room revealed a small knife marked with blood, and the autopsy revealed that both wrists had been severed. The reason for the deceased’s taking his life is attributed to the financial difficulties and his suffering from tuberculosis.”
