"Unfortunate Affair"

It was revealed at the inques that the tragedy was due to al unhappy love affair.

The officer's father told the coroner, Mr. W. Bentley Purchase. that he was aware of his son's friendship with a girl, but knew of no difficulties in connection with it.

Second Lieutenant Rhodes, whose home was at B'undelisands, Liverpool, left four letters, ad- dressed to the police, the coroner, his father and the girl he loved.

One note, sald Mr. Purchase. indicated what was in his mind -he himself described it as "an unfortunate love affair.”
