June: At the Morse, in Ruardean, on the body of ANN ROBERTS, aged about 60 years. The deceased left her residence between five and six o'clock on Saturday morning, and not returning, search was made in different parts of the neighbourhood, when she was discovered on the next morning hanging to a limb of a chestnut tree, in a wood called Heywood, in the Forest of Dean. It appeared in evidence that the deceased had for a long time been subject to fits of derangement, and the Jury being perfectly satisfied with the evidence, returned a verdict of Lunacy.
