Usborne ATTEMPT AT St:icing-0n Tuesday last our usually quite neighborhood Was thrown into a state of intense ex- citement and comutotion when it be- came known that Minnie Clements. daughter of Mt'. Isaac Clements. of the 8th concession, had made an attempt to end her life. For some titno past the unfurtunategirl has been in a de- mented state of mind over a recent marriage affair, in which she was in- volved and which doubtless preyed so much on her mind as to derange her mental faculties, nut it was never thoiiht she would resort to any such rash act as that attempted. Without signifying her intentions to any per- son she secured her father's razor and proceeded to the bush whete she in- flicted a horrible gash on the one side of bet- neck and throat several inches long. which almost -ended her life. The wound, however, was not sufficiently deep ns to cause death, and evidently regretting the deed, she hurried hack to her home. On reaching there she was almost exhausted and staggered in at the dour faint and bleeding. The services of a doctor were immediately summoned and the wound was dress- ed but it is doubtful whether she will recover. The circumstances surround- ing the case are indeed sad and the father, who is at present confined to his bed suffering from the effects of several broken ribs,the result of an un- fortunete accident. 1188 the sympathy of the entire neighborhood.
