PULSIFER Alameda

Notes:

She commited suicide over the break up of
a man (William A. Douglass) whom she had
been living with as his wife but they were
probably not married. He was married to
someone else. She went to the Wilbur House
in Seymour and asked for a room for the
night. The next day they found her ill and
discovered an empty ounce vial of Laudanum
in her bag. Doctors were called but could not save her.
They found a letter among her things writted
in pathetic strain, unbraiding Mr. Douglass
for his desertion of her. It is believed this
10 Mar 1885
was her reason for taking her life.N.Y. times
