Young farmer took his own life in hotel as he struggled to come to terms with family tragedy

A much loved young farmer took his own life following a night out after struggling to come to terms with a family tragedy.

Samuel Edward Davies was one of many young farmers on a get-together in the popular seaside resort of Blackpool in April of this year. The 25-year-old spent part of the evening of Friday April 29 with his girlfriend and childhood sweetheart, Elin Lewis.

An inquest at Blackpool Town Hall today (September 14) heard that at one point in the night the couple began arguing, during which Sam made reference to taking his own life. They eventually left the Walkabout bar in Queen Street at the end of the evening and returned to Elin's room at the Chimes Hotel on the Promenade reports LancsLive.
