The Unknown Wanderer was found to have died by suicide in the Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Boise. The man, discovered beneath a pew, was found to have ingested cyanide. A note and $1,900 were found with the body. The note said the money was to cover his funeral, and was signed with the name Wm. L. Toomey. Investigators later determined that it was an alias.
It read: “In the event of my death, the enclosed currency should give more than adequate compensation for my funeral or disposal (preferred to be cremated) expenditures. What is leftover, please take this as a contribution to this church. God will see to your honesty in this.”
