What is the best way of finding any articles printed in local newspapers on a death/suicide which occurred on Cove Common, Farnham, Hants in 1909. I have details on the family and the incident reported by Manchester Guardian but wonder if there will be anything more local?

You could go and look at the newspapers held in the local library, if you don't live there, you can ring, i did and got sent (had to pay) a copy of three newspaper reports that happened locally of my family and two nasty deaths. Although not sure how much they put about suicide, but death and sudden, definately. Give it a try.
