The Salvation Army.
WOMAN GONE MAD THROUGH ATTENDANCE AT SERVICES.
[Per Association Telegrams.] Christchurch, August 1.
A dressmaker, employed in one of the largest drapery establishments in town, has been driven out of her senses by religious hysteria, agravated by the Salvation Army services, at which she was an enthusiastic attendant. The break-up of her reason was sudden. It manifested itself in a form which was likely to lead to much unpleasantness, had not restraint been immediately enforced. The unfortunate girl is now an inmate of the Sunnyside Asylum. Her affliction is so violent that she has to be placed in a padded room.
