SHOCKING TRAGEDY,

A shocking tragedy occurred at Bristol on Monday
evening. A young man, named Joseph Turner, `2.0
years of age, son of an engine-fitter, of Coalpit
Heath, Gloucestershire, had for some time been living
with a girl named Annie Perry, in a lipase situate in
one of the lower parts of the city. On Monday even-
ing, while in a state of intoxication, he went to the
house, and entering the girl's room he locked the door.
Asking her if she was ready to die, he drew a re-
volver from his pocket, and before she could attempt
to get away from him he fired two shots at her,
wounding her in the shoulder and breast, and she fell
to the floor. The neighbours then heard another shot,
and on breaking into the room discovered that
Turner had apparently placed the revolver in his
mouth and blown his brains out. He was lying dead
on the floor, and near him was the young girl, who
was still ?Jive. She was conveyed to the infirmary,
