     Racine, WI, July 10 - Because she had been discharged from her position as clerk at the bakery of Frank Lintner, Miss Anna Nimm of Watertown, Wis, committed suicide this morning by taking four ounces of carbolic acid.
     Miss Nimm was an exceedingly handsome girl and a sister of Mrs. A. Duffy of St. Clair Street.
     When she had a disagreement with the proprietor her actions became strange and companions claim her reason left her. When discovered she was unconscious. Her parents live at Watertown and the body will be sent there. A coroners inquest was held and a verdict of suicide by taking acid rendered.
     Coroner Hoyle is looking for a three page letter which the girl wrote before she took the fatal drug and left in her room. It cannot be found. All witnesses who visited the room claim that they saw no note. Mr. Lintner, proprietor of the place, was closely questioned on this point. It is believed the note, if found, would explain her action.
     The jury rendered a verdict as they did with the understanding that if the note was found they could change their decision. Lintner said he discharge her because she refused to wait on a table at a party, and denied a rumor that there were other reasons of this action [Milwaukee Sentinel, July 11].
     Miss Nimm was about 19 years of age, and is the daughter of Peter Nimm, who resides just west of this city on the West Road.
     Miss Nimm was an excellent young lady, and her rash act was a great surprise to her friends. Her funeral which was held from St. Henry’s Catholic Church Wednesday morning was largely attended. Letters received here from Racine since her death from the Catholic priest there and from the coroner say the young lady was out of her mind when she suicided.³
