Thomas N. Brinkman of Westernport, died this morning at 5 o'clock at the Western Maryland Hospital. He was conscious to the last, but did not give his reasons for taking the poison, nor did he say whether he was sorry he had taken it. Brinkman was only 20 years old, and was married on November 21 last to Miss Mary Berry of Luke. The young people had just bought their furniture and were preparing to start housekeeping. The furniture reached Westernport from this city on Monday and young Brinkman had it hauled to the house where they were to start housekeeping. After working several hours arranging the furniture he went to Dr. J. T. Wilson, in Piedmont, and asked for some bichloride of mercury tablets, complaining of a sore on his back. On his way to his parents home he swallowed eight two grain tablets. When he reached home he became very ill and Dr. Wilson, who was summoned, at first thought he had an attack of indigestion, but later became suspicious and questioned the young man who admitted having taken the poison. Brinkman's wife and his parents Mr. and Mrs. Henry Brinkman were at the beside when he passed away. Young Brinkman was pipefitter by trade. Beside his wife and parents, Brinkman is survived by four brothers and three sisters as follows: Theodore and Oscar Brinkman, Virginia avenue this city; Oray and Wesley of Westernport; Mrs. Edith Twigg of Westernport and Ella and Anna at home. Young Brinkman was a member of the Red Men. The body was prepared for burial at Stein's morgue and sent to Westernport this afternoon on B. & O. train No. 55.
