the unfortunate man taok out a pen-knife,

Mr. Clark in the fide, but not dangeroufly. 
He then rufhed out of the room, without his 
fhirt (ftriking at every one he paffed) and ran 
with great fpeed down Bridge-ftreet, ftabbing 
himfelf in the throat and different parts of 
the body as he run; at length he fell intoa 
ditch, where he again plunged the knife into 
his throat and body feveral times, and almoft 
inftantly expired.
