Philip Merrill, 72, was found with a shotgun wound to the head and a small anchor tied around one or both ankles, a source tells
Eric Rich. The Merrill family says the publisher and former diplomat had undergone heart surgery a year ago and was on several medications as a result. "Over the past four weeks we've observed that his spirit dimmed," the family says in a
statement. "We were concerned for his welfare but never imagined he would consider taking his own life." || Related Baltimore Sun
