DETERMINED SUICIDE AT CHELSEA.—Yesterday after-
noon information was forwarded to Mr. Chas. Bedford,
the coroner for Westminster, of the death of Mrs.
Elizabeth Groom, aged 53, under the following melan-
choly circumstances :—lt appears, from what has trans-
pired, that the unfortunate woman was married, and
resided in Marlborough-road, Chelsea, and has been in
a very desponding state of mind for some length of time,
but it was not considered necessary to place any watch
on her movements. One of the inmates, hearing a noise
in the room, knocked at the door and found her labour-
ing under the effects of a large quantity of oxalic acid,
and a severe gash in her throat. She was immediately
conveyed to Wellington ward, St. George's Hospital,
when Mr. Henry Potter, the physician of the hospital,
assisted by the medical staff, rendered every aid that
medical skill could suggest, when the ill-fated, woman
sank gradually and expired in the above-named institu-
tion.
No reason at present can be given as to the cause
of her committing the rash act. The deceased was much
espected in the neighbourhood.
