"For about the last three months, a Dutch painter named Mr. Van Gogh, who is the brother of the well-like agent from the Goupil company, resided in Auvers-sur-Oise, in a hotel next to city hall.

Since his arrival, Mr. Van Gogh worked feverishly and led what appeared to have been an uneventful life.

On Sunday evening, around seven, Mr. Van Gogh left the hotel, heading towards the castle, and at nine, he came back with a smile on his face and completely calm, even though his stomach had been punctured by a gunshot. Mr. Van Gogh had attempted suicide.

- Am I spitting blood? he asked while keeping absolutely calm.

- No, came the answer.

- Well, I missed myself again.

Indeed, it was the second time that he had apparently attempted to end his life.

In spite of the professional and devoted care provided by Drs. Mazery and Gachet, who were summoned quickly, Mr. Van Gogh died on Tuesday at one p.m. after enduring great pain.

Mr. Van Gogh was a protestant. His funeral took place on Wednesday, at three o'clock.

His brother and Dr. Gachet, a friend of the deceased who gave a deeply emotional eulogy, were the chief mourners. Many artists came from Paris, including Messrs. Pisaro (sic), Los Kios and Tom, and the entire artistic community of Auvers-sur-Oise, which is quite numerous at this time, wanted to pay their last respects to this man defeated by his art and by life, who was stranded in this blond and sunny hollow, where he had seemingly come to seek his final rest."
