MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.—Grace Copson, a needlewomatt,
residing at 13, Little Windmill-street, was charged before
Mr. Tyrwhitt with attempting to commit suicide by cut-
ting her throat with a knife.
Mr. Alexander Clephane, baker, of 13, Little Windmill-
street, said that on the previous day the prisoner, who was
a lodger in his house, ran down stairs into his shop and
seized a knife from the counter and attempted to cut her
throat with it, and would have succeeded in doing so bad
ho not prevented her.
In answer to Mr. Tyrwhitt, the witness said the pri-
soner, who was of weak mind, had been drinking for
some days, and was labouring under the effects of drink at
the time.

A female said she saw the prisoner in the shop flourish-
ing the knife about, and she thought she was mad, and ran
away, being frightened.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said the best thing that could be done
would be to send her to the House of Detention for a week,
when she would be properly looked after.
