MELANCHOLY SUICIDE OF A YOUNG LADY IN LTV. RS'
POOL.—On Monday an inquest was held, before P.
F.
Curry, Esq., of Liverpool upon the body of Mart ;ha
Gaudy, daughter of a solicitor, who committed epic ide
the previous day. From the evidence it appeared ti kat
the deceased, who was 36 years of age, had met w ith
disappointment in love and became low spirited. All, out
seven o'clock on Sunday morning her sister, while is
bed, heard the report of fire-arms in the house, and on
going down stairs, into a spare bed-room, she fou Ad
the deceased lying on her back upon the floor, qu Ito
dead, her head shockingly mutilated from a piste 0/-
shot. The pistol, though evidently recently discharge d,
was at full cock ; and the supposition is, that she di a..
charged it with a lucifer-match, instead of a pen:mai°
cap. Upon the table of the room in which the rash a et
was committed was the following :—" My dear Fathe
Forgive me for the rash act lam about to commit. r
cannot live in misery. Adam (her lover) will n
come, when he promised us. He never performs 3 it..
Whenever I see him he treats me with the greate
cruelty, and I have not had a happy hour for the lag tta
two or three years. Never mind. Grieve not after nu
I shall be far happier in heaven than being in this world
All that I have, to name is not to allow Ned (her brother) I
to follow me to the grave. The Almighty will reward
him for his oonduct to me. Adieu for ever. MARTHA
GAUDT."—The Jury returned a verdict of "Suicide
under temporary insanity."
