THE MARCH or INTELLECT.—Everybody walking into
everybody else !—Punch.
A curious case of strangulation occurred in Sunderland,
,last week. A sailor on board a coasting-vessel was found
.strangled in the position thus described by a shipmate :—I
'got a light, and saw two boards, forming part of the fore-
castle floor, turned up on edge. I looked down, and saw
deceased clinging to the forehooks; his feet upon the lower,
land his hand upon the upper one. I spoke to him, but he
'made no answer. I got down to him with the light, and
lifted his shirt off the nail, and said, " Henry." He gave a
groan. He was hanging by his arm-pits. I think he must
have fallen, and the spike-nail caught his shirt : his chin
was resting on his hands. There is a mark on his breast.
The shirt was pressing on the side of Ins neck. On the
jugular vein there is a livid mark.
