The first attempt at suicide in this town was a most signal failure. Lewis Wyman, who lived in the southwest part of the town, at times was insane. At fifty years of age he deliberately concluded that he had lived as long as life was desirable, and boldly declared that he would commit suicide if he died in the attempt. Selecting a rope as the instrument, the barn as the scene, and himself as the chief actor, he adjusted the cord, consulted his courage, and made the reckless leap. He was soon discovered and released, but life was apparently extinct. His neighbors, being summoned, rendered him faithful attention, poured in wine, and would have added oil if there had been wounds, until at last he revived. He soon after removed to Vermont, where he recently died at the extreme age of one hundred and five years. The mistaken man was not aware of the duration of the existence he was about to surrender.
