The Seneca Free Press of the 2Sth
ult., says: Walhalla was somewhat
stirred up last Thursday, the goth
instant, by the double attempt of
Marion G. Westendorff, of Charles
ton, one of the excursionists to the
up country, to commit suicide. His
first attempt was to try to cut his
throat with razor, but he was foiled
in that and he afterward resolved to
jump from the third story of Bic.
mann's hotel, when this tragedy was
averted by friend who grasped one
foot after his leap through the win
dow. Disappointment in love with
one of Walhalla's fair ones WAS the
cause. Since his double attempt 70
commit suicide his beloved one has
repented, and what promised to break
his heart as well as his head bos
been amicably settled and everything
runs smoothly.
