The newspaper clipping in Jane Redding's wallet says:

Neil Redding, Tragic Victim of Collapsed Economy. By Samantha Halbert, Cleveland Spectator.

Neil Redding, 76, was pronounced dead yesterday, the apparent victim of a self-inflicted gunshot wound. The body was discovered at 6:20 PM, by his wife, Jane Redding. She told investigating officers that her husband had become increasingly depressed after learning that their life savings was lost by a New York investment firm. Investigating officers ruled out any suggestion of foul play, and determined the death was suicide. The wound was caused by a U.S. Army service revolver once owned by ther son, Jeffery Redding. Jeffery Redding died in the US invasion of Iraq. Ms. Redding said, "After Jeffery's death, my husband found it hard to regain his footing. When we lost our money, it was too much." Ms. Redding said that a memorial service would be held for close friends at a date yet to be determined.
