    About this ebook

    "The Glebe 1913/ 11" by Wallace E. Baker is a narrative about a person who committed suicide in the 20th century. The body of a well-dressed young man was found off Manhattan Beach, on Sept. 28th. In his pockets, a torn photograph of Strindberg and receipts for three registered letters were found. These receipts were traced to Mr. Herts and to friends in Toronto, one of whom identified the body on Oct. 2d as that of Wallace E. Baker. He was buried on Oct. 3d in Evergreen Cemetery, Brooklyn. Excerpt: "January 26, 1912. It is with mingled feelings of hope, discouragement, joy, and pain that I begin the second book of my diary. My hope springs from the fact that my outlook seems to be clearer ahead, the old uncertainty is more in the background, but there is another side to it all. My discouragement comes from my constant feeling of tiredness, less evident in the evening and for a while at night, but exceedingly strong during every afternoon with few exceptions. This has resulted in my weak yielding to weakness at night, and only last night after my confidence that I had gained a certain mastery I was overcome."

      Why We Write

      Aug 12, 2020
