London.-A remarkable account o.
the suicide Of Louie Pope. school
girl of twelve, was given at an inquest
at Daisy Bany. near Wolverhampton.

recently and afterwards the girl re
fused to 60 to school. When hel
father came home at dinner time she
said: Il am not going to school fol
you or mother"
She went away, and not long after
wards another little daughter brough,
home the clothing of her sister.
The girl had most ungovernable
temper. II she did not get what she
wanted she always said: II will
drown myself or stop motor"
Anne Pope, aged nine years, said
that when Louie went to the canal
she followed, and her sister said: III
I could catch you l would hit you"
Not long afterwards the witness saw
her sister undress and slide into the

Her father had declined to yield wheo
Harold asked him for the girl;
''Begone!" the grim old man had said
she meier may wed with such q
churl!
I'd rather see her in her shroud than "a
the altar led by you:
Her lineage 10 long and proud; your an
cestors were base and few"
That night when her grim father slept
the maiden left her downy bed
And dressed herself and softly crept out
on her balcony: o'erhead
The moon shone with q fltful glow. and
in a steeple far away
A clock, In accents weird and slow. an
nounced the near approach Of day.
The maiden, trembling, waited while the
precious moments dragged along:
But hope was in her glad young breast;
her trust was sure. her faith was
strong:
She leaned against the rail and gased;
young Harold was not waiting there:
No ladder had 40 yet been raised. and
silence brooded everywhere.
At last she heard q distant whir. and.
looking up. she saw . dim.
Strange birdlike thing approaching her;
its wings were wide. it, form Wa
trim;
Asleep within her father lay; his every
snore the building shook.
And Harold bore the maid away. caught
