PALMERSTON NORTH.
This day. A man named Charles Manson, 24 years, of age jumped into the Manawatu river, ten chains below the Gorge bridge, on Saturday afternoon. He was only married three months ago and was in comfortable circumstances. He was noticed every morning for three days to proceed to the spot where he jumped in. His wife, who lived at Sandon, received a letter on Saturday, dated from Woods ville, which stated that the deed was owing to the heavy weight he had on his mind. The body has not yet been recovered.
