DEPTFORD. Determined Suicide.
Yesterday afternoon week, Mr. Brandon, landlord of the "Shipwrights'
Arms," New Town, Deptford, put an end to his existence in his bed
room, by placing the muzzle of a gun in his mouth and discharging
it. His skull was completely shattered, and life must have been
instantly extinct. It appears that he had lately bought the
"Shipwrights' Arms," but the business failing to meet his
expectations he grew depressed and melancholy. An inquest was held
upon the body on Thursday last, when a verdict of "Temporary
insanity" was returned. Deceased has left a widow and one child.

Fatal Accident.
On Tuesday evening week, a fine child about four years of age, whose
parents, named Saxby, reside in George street, New Town, was run
over by a light cart, belonging to Mr. Reddish, shoe maker, Evelyn
street, driven by his son. The cart passed over the child’s head,
killing it instantly. An inquest was held upon the body, the
following evening, at the "Shipwright's Arms," New Town, Deptford,
and the evidence went to show that a waggon belonging to a person
named Hasler, a cow keeper, was standing in the road, no horses
being attached to it. The lad, Reddish, in his endeavour to avoid a
collision, unfortunately run over the child. It was satisfactorily
proved that the occurrence was purely accidental, and that no blame
attached to the driver of the cart.
The jury returned a verdict of
"Accidental Death."
