Spear, committed suicide early yesterday morning at his mother’s _home, 1729 .Broadway, presumably .because his relatives were opposed to his marriage while he was £0 young to Nellie Gallagher, scarcely 18, who lives a few blocks from the Spear | residence.. He was found dead in his bed at a quarter past 6 o’clock in the morn- ing, with the single gas jet of his bedroom turned on full force. The awful discovery was made by the boy's aunt, Mrs. Laura L. Buffandeau, | who W akened by the odor of gas. Hastily arising, she sought the source of the trouble, and, coming downstairs found " the little back bedroom, usually | cccupied by the boy, full of; the deadly { fluid. Gus was lying in bed as if asleep. Throwing up the window and leaving the door open, Mrs. Buffandeau shook .her nephew, but got ne resp aroused the household and a ph: an was sum- moned, and in the meanwhile efforts were | made to resuscitate the young man, but {in vain. When Dr. F. A, Hyde arrived, | had ensued fully an hour before the dis- i covery of the tragedy was made. | The young man left no note or explana- tion .of his deed. The door of his room was shut, though he usually left it open, and the window was closedl tightly. 10 | | Depu oroner McCormick members of | the family d they had no doubt Gus | had committed suictde, but when ques- tlored as to” his inratuation for Nellie Gallagher and his dejection because their marriage was opposed, they claimed to | know nothing of the details of the boy- | ish romance. | Suspicion Not Aroused. Young Spear did not come home | dinner Wednesday night, but his absence | was not at all unusual. Mrs. Spear and | her daughters and Miss Tva Buffandeau | to | were at a card party and returned after midnight. Gus was not yet home. . At 1 o’clock Mrs. Buffandeau heard him come in and go to his room. Nothing in what she heard aroused any suspicion on her part. Gus Spear was a modest, lively, ambi- tious boy. His hobby was: the sea, and | he returned six months"ago from' a trip | to Manila in the transport service, com- | ing back as a quartermaster on the Sher- | idan. About a year ago he had met Nei- | lie Gallagher, a frail, neat little girl, who | keeps house for her father, who'is a hod- -carrier, and three brothers in a humble cottage that sits back from the street at 1332% Broadwdy.

Nellie Gallagher — v tcok long walks together. February 12 the young man astonished his mother by announcing that he 80Ing to be married the next day and had secured a license, though he bt 19 and' Nellle ' Gallagher barely 18. Mr: l‘:ip('flr reasoned with him and finally per: suaded him to walit untll he was some- t older, but in spite of his apparent ‘cquiescence jt seems that family opposi- tion ‘and possilily subsequent reproaches from the girl he loved caused the boy ‘o toke his own life. Willing to Wait Till Older. Mrs. Spear prostrated by the t edy and denied herself to all. calle Bufiandeau, the aunt, sald that she | felt sure her nephew’s death had no re- latlon whatever to his affection for Miss Gallagher, whom none of the famiiy knew. She said Gus consented readily wait until he was older and had prospects that warrdanted his- taking a wife. He had remained cheerful, she said, and the family had almost forgotten the marriage license cpiscde. At the Gallagher home the affalr was shrouded” in mystery. One brother, Owen Gallagher, a hack-driver, alone was . in_ the house. He told. the Deputy Coroner that his sister had not- been at home ' the - night be- fore, but that “she was safe,” being at the house of a mnear relative. The girl did not return during the day and her brothers persistently refused to reveal her Whereabouts. - They -sald she was - pros- trated over the tragedy; of which she was told early in the afternioon and that she was’ too il from grief to see any one. They sald she was at the home of a rela- tive, but would not say. who the relatiye | Was or where the residence was.

That was about the time Nellie Gallagher was last seen at home. Boy Knew Sweetheart’s Brothers. Owen Gallagher says that his sister did not see Gus on Wednesday at all and that he had not seen him for several days. Johu Gallagher, the younger brother, who works at the and Central Market, said that Gus was on excellent terms with all the family and that no quarrel of any sort had occurred. He said Gus was anxlous to marry in spite of opposition, but that Nellie heeded their advice and @id not want to marry until Gus was older and had a position that would make him independent and able to support her. The.boys both say the young people were very much in love and that their sister is heartbroken over her lover's tragic death. A sister of the dead boy called at the Gallagher home last night to offer con- solation to her brothér’s girlish sweet- heart, but was told that Nellle was not at home and was denled information as to where she was. _Gustavus Langford Spear was born April 24, 1882. As a lad he attended the Pacific Heights School, where he was very popular with his mates. He quit school to go to sea, but had never been wild or a care to his mother. His home on Broadway, above Franklin street, is in striking contrast to the abode where his sweetheart kept house for her father and brothers.
