RECULVER. SUICIDE OF A YOUTH.

On Tuesday afternoon T. T. Delasaux, Esq., County coroner, held an inquest at the "Pig and Whistle," Reculver, on the body of Henry Gammon, aged 18 years, who was found hanging in his father's house on the previous day. It appeared that since the deceased had had an attack of fever he had been very strange in his manner, and he has had no regular employment. It has been his custom to lie in bed on Sunday morning later than the other members of the family; and on Sunday morning last at nine o'clock his father went to call him to breakfast and found him suspending from a beam by a cord. The jury returned a verdict of " Suicide while temporarily insane."
