FRIGHTFUL ATTEMPT AT SUICIDE BY A GENTLEMAN.
—Yesterday morning a gentleman named William Jones,
aged 45 years, made the following frightful and deter-
mined attempt at suicide from a third-floor window of
the house of Mr. Adams, landlord of the British Stores,
Wells-street, Oxford-street. It appears from all that
can be gleaned, that the unfortunate gentleman, who is
parted from his wife, about six months ago arrived in
London from Abergavenny, where he had obtained great
practice as a surgeon, and at once took a lodging at the
house of Mr. Adams, in which he had since resided. He was
rather reserved in his manner, and had latterly seemed de-
pressed in spirits. Yesterday morning, about eleven
o'clock, he was observed by a passer by to precipitate
himself from a window as above-mentioned into the
street, and on being picked up covered with blood, was
forthwith conveyed to Middlesex Hospital, when it was
discovered that, besides severe injuries to his head and
other parts of his person, both legs were broken. Every
attention was paid to him, and last evening a consultation
of the medical officers was held, when it being the unani-
mous opinion that the only chance of saving Iris life was
by amputation of both limbs, he having been restored to
consciousness, was asked if be would consent to the ope-
ration, when he emphatically `replied, " No." All the 1
exertions and means possible will be used to restore him,
but it is not supposed that he can long Ouryiye.
