NEED NO INQUEST
OVER NURSE WHO
ENDEDJER LIFE
County Attorney Not Notified
of Suicide of Miss Oeakin;
Says Will Make No
Further Inquiry.
Leaving a note in which she stated
she thought her life had been a fail
tire and that no one loved her, Kath
crine Deakin, 21-year-old nurse at the
Nicholas Senn hospital, committed
suicide in . Hansconv park Thursday
I" afternoon by taking poison.
The young woma 1 was found in an
. unconscious condition by women
passing and taken to the hospital,
where she died 20 minutes later while
ffhtr nurse chums and doctors were
working to save her life.
County Attorney Magney, who has
the duties of coroner, last night said
no direct report was made to him
and that he knew' nothing about the
. young woman s death until informed
from outside sources nearly 24 hours
after her death. He said he was con
vinced after a short investigation that
she came to her death by her own
hand". He said no inquest would be
held. The suicide was not reported
to the police.
Worried Over Brother.
In a note pinned to her waist and
addressed to Miss Richardson, under
whom she worked, Miss Deakin told
of her desertion by her mother and
the death of her father, whom she re
membered as treating her kindly, and
requested that she be buried by his
side in Champaign, 111. At the hos
pital it is said her -grandmother lives
in Champaign and that a brother is
with the American expeditionary
forces. Her burial wishes will be
complied with.
At the Jiosoital all speak in the
highest terms of the dead girl. Her,
death came as a.surprise to all. She '
has been despondent at times and
threatened to take her life, but none
considered her remarks seriously. She
wrote in her note she had made two
previous attempts to end her life.
Mentions Promise Made.
Dr. Condon, head of the hospital,
stated Miss Deakin had grieved over
her brother in France and for a few
days had seemed extremely nervous.
Her condition was such, he say's, that
he told her to take a rest.
In her note she told of a promise
she had made and could not break.
She told that the only way she could
escape from fulfilling the promise was
