way.The consensus of opinion is that tho deceased man was dissatisfied with the contract ho had signed with the directory of tho institute, ami that his troubles were of a fluancinl character.—St. Louis Globc-Dcmocrnl, Sept. SO.
The St. Louis Republic's correspondent says:
“Prot. Leek y had been showiug signs of an unbalanced aud decaying iutclioct for some time past, and his queer actions caused soino comment. Ho had many warm friends ntnong the pcoplo of O’Fallon, however, ami his eccentric ways were overlooked iu the hope that they were only caused l»y temporary ill health.”
Tbo deceased lived in Port Gibson from September, 1879, to Juue, 1888, being principal of Chamberlain* Hunt Academy, lie was also an elder in the Presbyterian church. During his stay here he won universal esteem and his tragic death is sincerely lamented.
He was a Virginian, a graduate of Washington & Iæo University, and wheu the war broke out ho served gallantly iu the Confederate aimy. At the battle of Gettysburg bo was shot through the body, from which wouud be uever entirely recovered.
