Ceroner, and a numerous Jury sat in the Board-re onl '', --
the West London Union Workhouse, West-street, SulLt 1.. .!.'
field, to determine the cause of the. suicide of. \S
ilkinson, aged 64. an inmate of that worl kh( 0 ,
t 4:
Several of the guardians of the union - were p!..e: *ll
Isaac Stephens, a pauper, said he had known
clecei $e
for two years, and saw him last alive in the w a ter-cl, yet 4
between three and four o'clock on Thursday inorni eft
Witness spoke to him, and received no answer, and
hint in the closet. He saw no more of him until dal ea li-J
when deceasel was brought up stairs dead. Decent er
was a very still, quiet man, and would hardly ansr k,
when spoken to. Several other inmates of the wo, 4
house were examined. They said that le.tterly &Teas
_O4
appeared " rather queer," and was in the habit of walks .:-;
to and fro silently in the. yard, looking very ill. They r 3:
proved that, having found the door of the water-closet f D
cued inside, and hearinz within a noise like that mad ehi
a person snoring, they burst the o.onr open,-and four ,tittt,..
ceased sitting on the seat of the closet, with his thr' w
cut, and a fork . stickir4 in the wound. He was q..!i: 5",
dead, and a kitchen knife, stained with blood. Ay rf
his side. Mr. Mott,. muster of the workhouse said de- :.-
ceased had been under his care for about t' "lye ye: '.1%,;' `
He was extremely deaf, and on that Ileco .unt was SC 9
uncommunicative. There was nothing et..n erwise par 1,i,.
cular about him, and witness could. not account for tj td ..•
commission of the rash act. Dr, Lynch, surgeon tot /'
workhouse, said the wound in deceased's throat was , ;It
'. ;.-
inch and a half in depth and three inches in lengf 'I"
None of the chief vessels were divided, but several of I be
lesser were, which produced such a loss of blood as i'l 1
cause death. Witness knew of nothing that could ea' .15.
deceased to commit suicide, unless from a feeling of de'
spondency, the effect of frequent illness. \ler': le''''
"Temporary insanity."
