  • Notes // Примечания: Secretary of the Union of the Russian War Invalids. Shot himself in the temple in the offices of employer, Clarkes Inquiry and Protection Agency, in Glen Line Building. Was depressed. Left a note for his wife: “Forgive me. It is better this way.” This suicide, apparently, so shocked his colleague Ida Snyder, whose room was next door, that she took an overdose of a sleeping drug the next day (see Snyder).
