Article found in Ipswich Journal (Suffolk) for Sat. 31st December 1870 In the rural district of Garway, near Hereford, a labouring man this week attempted to murder a young woman, and thereafter committed suicide. It appears that Mr J. EMBREY had in his service at the Church Farm, a waggoner named Amos MORRIS, and a young woman engaged as servant in the house. MORRIS made advances to the girl, which she objected. She favoured another suitor. MORRIS, however, persisted in his attentions, and as she continued obdurate he threatened suicide. On Sunday last the banns were published in the parish church for the marriage of the young woman to another man named Thomas CLARK, a carpenter. On the following day, shortly after the girl had gone to an outhouse among the farm buildings, MORRIS entered his master's house and told him that she was lying in the outhouse and "could not get from there". Mr EMBREY proceded to the spot, and found the girl lying on the ground insensible. She had been severely injured and still lies in a critical state. As the girl was being carried into the house a gunshot was heard and it was found that MORRIS had shot himself. He was quite dead.
