Show SUICIDAL INTENT. This forenoon a lady named Eccles who lives in the southeast part of the city, while in a state of temporary insanity ran out of the house and jumped down a deep well that is on the premises. When she was taken out she was insensible. Dr. E. G. Williams was summoned. He examined the patient and found that she had received a severe cut in the head and that one of her arms was broken by the plunge. It is supposed that she threw herself into the well with suicidal intent. The doctor set the broken limb, dressed the other wound, and did all that he could for her. The extent of her injuries we have not learned, but up to the time of going to press she was said to be in a precarious condition. - Ogden Herald. |
