    Notes:

    SHERRINGTON - In the vicinity of the small village of Strasborg, in the County of Waterloo, a melancholy case of suicide occurred recently. The victim was a woman named Sherrington who had been for some time in a melancholy state of mind, and was seldom on this account left alone. On the day the direful deed was committed, her husband, thinking she seemed in remarkably good spirits, left her alone, but on returning and missing her, he searched the house, but failing to find her, went to the barn where, to his intense horror, he saw the body of his wife suspended lifeless by a rope attached to a windlass used for weighing hay. The husband immediately cut the rope, hoping that life was not extinct, but was soon convinced that there was no room for hope
