Event date: Sep 25, 1845
Mr. John Plummer, of West Brattleboro, committed suicide early last Sunday morning by cutting his throat with a butcher’s knife, which had been made very sharp. He had himself, indeed, previously told his friends to keep all edge tools away from his sight, saying his mind was sometimes strangely inclined to do himself harm. Mr. Plummer was 63 years of age, was a man of some property, and had been esteemed here as one of our best and most useful citizens.
