alleged last words of:-

Beecher, Henry Ward (1813-1887)

"Now comes the mystery."

Henry Ward Beecher, brother of Harriet Beecher Stowe, was a fervent abolitionist and one of the most influential American clergymen of the 1800's. His down-to-earth sermons and outspoken moral earnestness helped make him "the most famous man in America." His popularity lasted throughout his life, surviving a sensational adultery trial in 1875 that ended in a hung jury, an acceptance of Darwinism, and even his eventual rejection of the divinity of Jesus.

The mystery would be...? Why this person killed themselves. I think. Looking forward to reading your notes on this.

Grim and effective. I'm going to guess this to be an entry from [user]Nighttrain[/user]. The theme is similar and it looks like possibly the same person as in A Shocking End.

Hmmm... This shot took whats seems like a lot of thought. I think that this shot would be better if the Jack was more in the photo and the dark color subject on the top was not there.

The post-it note could have been placed differently. took a little time for me to see where it was at.

Very dramatic. Shadows are little too dark. Reflector on the left would have helped, IMO.

The perfect handwriting detracts a bit from a great photo. 9

Dark, brooding. Might have been better with backround out of focus...

depressing and sad .. the facts that the anti-depressant companies dont tell you is that they can actually cause ppl to suicide .. especially when given to young ppl and also when they're combined with other 'helpful' drugs .. the doctors/psychiatrists continue to hand them out without fully understanding the effects .. its criminal .. so this is very real ..
i hope it isnt real for you tho .. :)
ps .. 'the mystery' .. i'd love to solve that one .. !!..:)
