A PRETENDED MILLIONAIRE.—A remarkable
case was disposed of at Ipswich quarter sessions on Friday.
A person named Neville Allen was charged with obtaining
money from various persons under the pretence that he was
concerned in a litigation, Allen v. Allen, referring to vast
estates in the West Indies and £2,000,000 or £3,000,000 in
the funds. His plan was to dire3t the attention of his vic-
tims to a report of a case, Allen v. Allen, at Vice-Chan-
cellor Wood's Chambers, and to state that his solicitor was
pressing him for money to carry on the proceedings. In
this manner the fellow succeeded in swindling three per-
sons, one of them in humble life, of £9, £8.5, and £6O re-
spectively. The prisoner pleaded guilty to the whole of
the charges. The Deputy Recorder sentenced him to 18
months' imprisonment. . .

ATTEMPTED SUlClDE.—Yesterday an attempt
at suicide was committed by Mrs. Elizabeth Shaw, aged 35,
who resided in Pitts-street, Camberwell. The unfortunate
woman has lately been in a very low desponding state of
mind, owing to her husband charging her with infidelity;
and on Saturday night, owing to a quarrel with her hus-
band, she left her home, and was found in the Borough by
the police in a state of insensibility. She was conveyed to
Guy's Hospital, where it was found she had taken nearly
two ounces of laudanum. The stomach pump was applied
and other antidotes were administered, but she remains in
13 precarious state.
