Notes I Took From the Internet While I Was Fretting
About T.
From an online medical journal:
Suicide
represents 17% of the total mortality for adolescents and young
adults living in Paris, with a large over-representation of males
(277 males, 178 females).
The mode of suicide in Paris is essentially poisoning, then hanging
and jumping from high place.
From a newspaper:
PARIS, May 4. -- An
attempt has been made here to invest the suicide of Charles T. Steedman
of New York, who shot himself in the Hotel de L'Orient in the Rue
Daunou, with a sensational mystery which it does not possess.
From some paper about some dude named Durkheim:
For
Durkheim, suicide is perhaps "the most personal act" any
human can undertake.
I got more and more pissed at T. and also scared.
