Sent To Hospital
For 'Observation
A Zurich district man, charged
with attempting to commit suicide,
'was committed to Ontario Hospital,
London, for observation when he
appeared before Magistrate D. E.
(Holmes here.
Two doctors, who gave evidence
as to the man's mental state, ex-
pressed the opinion that excessive
drinking had some bearing on his
condition.
From police, it was learned
that the man had attempted to
hang himself, but he ePOAKAAILY
gave a yell which attracted the
attention of someone who stopped
,him from carrying out the plan.
He also waved a knife around for
a while but did not cut himself
with it, according to police in-
fornwtion.
This inquiry into the man's
mental state was the only case
.which went 111 in magistrate's court
here last week.
