Sunday night in his cabin near South
Union, this county. He slashed his
wrists and throat with a sharp knife
and then set fire to the cabin. AS the
flames began to hem him in his cries

was put out and Wilkinson rescued.
None Of the cuts is dangerous.

ago. About a week ago a small tree
fell on his head, and his friends be-

caused him to attempt suicide. One
failure has not satisfied the old man,
and he maintains that he will make an
effective attempt as soon as he is
out of the hospital.
