Mrs. Michael Bamrick, of Georgetown, Uses Razor to End Life
--------------------------
During a fit of temporary insanity early yesterday morning, Mrs. Michael Bamrick, aged 42, 633 Northampton street, Georgetown, took her life by severing the arteries of her neck with a razor.
According to members of the family, Mrs. Bamrick has been unwell for the past two months. Early in May Mrs. Bamrick gave birth to a child. Since that time, her health has not been good and she has suffered temporary lapses of memory and at times her mind becoming mildly unbalanced. The family had been notified by their physician to watch her and had done so. Yesterday morning about 3 o'clock Mr. Bamrick had tiptoed into her room as was his custom several times each night and found her sleeping. He returned to his bed and heard a noise on the lower floor about 5 o'clock, went to his wife's bedroom and found her missing from bed. He immediately went to the lower floor and after looking in all the rooms for her, discovered her in the kitchen lying in a pool of blood. A physician was summoned and pronounced Mrs. Bamrick dead.
Deputy Coroner D. F. Mulligan was called to the home and took charge of the body. An inquest will be held this afternoon.
Mrs. Bamrick is survived by a husband and six children. She is one of a family of eleven children, all of whom survive her.
