The following letter from a brother of the
young lady mentioned iu connection with the
suicide of young BEI.LOCK, in Klrnira the
other day, is printed in the Free Press yes
terday. We heartily agree with the writer
that there should he some protection against
the untruthful and sensational accounts
weekly printed in the Sunday papers:
"DEAR SIR:—I notice in regard to W. L.
Bullock's death, various accounts given by the
several newspaper of Elmira. That, given by
the Free Pres* was the most correct, and the
least objectionable to Ids friends. I wish to
say that the Sunday paper say s that Bullock
was disappointed in love with Miss Mvrtia E.
Wheat, of Ilorselieads, and that her father
; had forbade him coming to the house. This
is all untrue, and ha* no foundation whatever.
VViiiis Bullock was twenty-one years of age,
and Miss \V heat fourteen. There never was
1 any correspondence passed between them
! that her pareuts did not see and read, and
nothing more than a sincere friendship exist
ed between them, such as is common and
proper between cousins. Jn the letter that
was found upon his person, directed to Miss
Wheat, Bullock calls her his child corres
pondent, and says: 4 Mv life has been a failure.
Everything I have undertaken does not s< eni
to prosper, and I don't think you will ever
see me again.' He closes by saying farewell, i
There ought to be some protection ami remedy
for persons who are made to suffer from
statements such as were published in the
Sunday paper."
