The bathroom where Chandler, two months after Cissy's death, tried to shoot himself, is still in use, and the bullet holes in the ceiling are no longer visible.
A month after that incident Chandler sold the house. He moved often in his last four years. Roaming from New York to London and back to La Jolla, with frequent stops in hospitals to "dry out". On March 1959 he died in Scripps Clinic. A few days later he was buried at San Diego's Mount Hope cemetery.from
