Bid the World Farewell

Pittsburgh, PA  Mrs. Minnie Epstein, a young Hebrew woman of No. 62 Marion street, who supported herself, her 4-year-old child and partly supported her husband, says the latter did not care to work and she thinks has suicided. On Monday she received a letter in German and in her husband's handwriting, informing her that she would find his body in the river not far from where they lived, and bidding her farewell until they would "meet again in heave," Mrs. Epstein learned after he marriage that Epstein had another wife living in London. She is rather inclined to think that Epstein did not commit suicide, as he had threatened to do so before.
