cells of the prison of Rothesay. The deceased, who
was addicted to habits of intemperance, had occasioned
some disturbance on the streets' Or the town on the
night previous, in consequence of which he had been ap-
prehended and placed in confinement ,sn the morning of
Wednesday. In the course of an hour or so after he had
been locked up, one of the officials entered tittelelll;'When
he was horrified to find the prisoner lying, or rather half
sitting, on the floor of the apartment, with his neck-
clotch tightly twisted round his neck, and apparently
quite dead. The alarm was immediately given, and pr.
Maclachlan was called in without delay, but on his arri-
val, although the body was still warm, he found that life
was en tirelyextin ct. The unfortunate man had first fastened
his neckerchief round his throat, in a kind of loop or noose
and having then inserted his boot into the other end of
it, had actually garotted himself by twisting it round
until strangulation took place. His hand still grasped
the boot, which had acted as a kind of lever, to serve his
fatal purpose, when he was discovered. The deceased,
who has only been a brief time resident in Rothesay,
has left a widow to lament his untimely end.—Glasgow
Post.
