WOMAN’S SUICIDE
CORONER ADVOCATES EMIGRATION
(Australian Press Assn.—United Service.)
London, November 3.
Owing to depression, partly due to her son’s leaving for Australia in January. -Mrs. Mary I-locken Shrosbree, aged 48, of Fulham, committed suicide by gas poisoning. Her husband, Charles William Shrosbree, a coffee shop proprietor, admitted that divorce had been discussed. “I couldn’t give her all the love she wanted. I knocked about the world, went through the war, was train-wrecked and torpedoed, and my brain has practically deadened,” he said.
The Coroner gave a verdict of death while of unsound mind, and said that the more people who went to the colonies the better it would be for England.
