He left a letter which said: "I find the mental strain in conne^- tion with the political campaign such as to worry me all day and cause me loss of sleep at night. i find, too, that i have not the tact for this kind of life. The result must be only to bring dis- grace upon myself and the Liberal party. The only way out is what I am about to do. I know it will be a great. blow to my brother and sisters, but i cannot help it. For the past three years i have had some trouble which caused loss of sleep."
