§106 Suicide is a puzzle of words

Suicide is a puzzle of words.

In 1926, a Budapest waiter named Antal Gyula walked into his workplace, Café Emke (Emke kávéház). He then entered the restroom where he shot himself in the chest and head. In his pocket was found a crossword puzzle, which, he declares, would explain his reasons for suicide.

After a century of problem solving by puzzle masters, the answer remains a mystery.
