Committed Suicide.

COMMITTED SUICIDE.

An Actress For Whom An Ypsilanti Man Died.

The young actress, for whom John C. Frick, a young Ypsilantian, who at one time worked in the Chicago shoe house in this city, committed suicide last January, committed suicide herself in Detroit Tuesday night. She took 50 cents worth of morphine and calling a bell boy at the hotel where she roomed she gave him a letter to be given the coroner which was addressed to her mother saying good bye and asking for forgiveness. A physician was called and worked over the girl without success. At 6 o'clock she had received a note signed Fred, telling her that the writer was unable to see her any more and had left the city.

Lottie Elwood, the girl who thus committed suicide, was a vaudeville dancer and was 22 years old. Two men have committed suicide on her account, One was a merchant and the other was young Frick. Shortly before Frick's suicide Lottie took a large dose of morphine and was removed to Grace hospital.. Shortly after her recovery Frick, who was in love with the pretty little actress, called on her and asked her to die with him. She refused and he then went to his apartments where he swallowed enough carbolic acid to kill two men, and was found dead in his room the next day.
