The author continues her observations of the uniqueness of various types of continua. The results in the paper are focused on the suspension of a topological space (the suspension \(\text{Sus}(X)\) of a topological space \(X\) is the quotient space defined by \(\text{Sus}(X) = X \times [-1,1] / (X\times \{-1\}, X \times \{1\})\)). The main result of the paper says that if \(X\) is a locally connected curve and the suspension of \(X\), \(\text{Sus}(X)\), is homeomorphic to the suspension of \(Y\), \(\text{Sus}(Y)\), for some continuum \(Y\), then \(X\) and \(Y\) are homeomorphic. This result guarantees that each locally connected curve has a unique suspension. All results in the paper are clearly presented.
