DETERMINED SUICIDE.
[by TELEGRAPH. —PRESS ASSOCIATION.] Oamaru, Monday. A man named Da Lambert, a merchant, has committed suicide by taking prnssic acid. He was found by his office boy this morning quite dead on a sofa. He leaves a wife (who is near her confinment) and eight children. The supposed cause is business trouble. His life was insured six months ago in the Government office, but as the rule of this office is that in the case of suicide within twelve months the policy is not paid, it is feared that the family will get nothing.
