ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.
- ♦ Cambridge, This Day. Jerome Furlong, a lamplighter, was arrested on a charge of attempted suicide and wounding James McLennan, his brother-in-law. The accused, a young man, came from Auckland, where he had made an attempt on his life. It appears a girl at Cambridge had refused to walk out with Furlong, who declared he would soon settle the matter, and proceeded to his brother-in-law’s house, where he seized a razor and tried to cut his throat. McLennan, in attempting to disarm the man, was badly cut about. Furlong was tied to a chair by the neighbours and handed over to the police.
