  • Notes // Примечания: “Mr Aaron M. Bourlakoff, 74-old violinist and music teacher, was found dead at his home at 22A Route Pere Robert on Friday morning, hanging from a curtain rod. He appeared to be in normal state when his wife left shortly after 8 a.m. to make some purchases. When she returned ten minutes later, she found his body hanging from the rod. Doctor Churilin, who lives in this passage, was called in. Investigations revealed note in the coat pocket, pleading: “No one is responsible for my death.’ It was dated 17 April, and it is believed that the deceased had thought of suicide for some time.”
