BOY KILLS BROTHER DURING SLEEP WALK.
BECOMES MANIAC WHEN HE AWAKES TO FEARFUL TRAGEDY. By Telegrapli.—Press Assn.—Telegraph. Aus. and N.Z. Cable Association. LONDON, June 21. A Milan boy who is a sleepwalker, killed his brother during a nightmare. He awoke to find that the dream was a tragic reality. Guiseppe and Carlo Migliasso were living at Asti with their widowed mother. The boys slept together in order that Guiseppe could prevent Carlo from harming himself. Carlo, on Sunday night, woke suddenly in great fear. He remembered he had been dreaming that he was attacked by a burglar whom he shot with a revolver. He called to Guiseppe. There was no reply, so he lit a candle. He fainted on finding his brother dead on the floor. When Carlo recovered he found he had walked to his mother’s room, secured the revolver, and shot his brother. Carlo is now almost a maniac.
