MURDER BY BOY OF 16.

DRIVEN MAD BY NEURALGIA, Frederick Finch, aged 16, was charged at the Old Bailey with the murder of Matilda Wood, aged 56, who had lived in the same house in Cottenham Road, Holloway, N.

Mr. Raphael, prosecuting, said that Finch stabbed Mrs. Wood and she died almost immediately, Mrs. Winder, who also lived in the house, heard screams and went to see what had happened. Finch stabbed her in the chest with a knife, but she took the weapon from him. After- wards Finch said, "I had been awake all night with toothache. I was sitting by the fire. My tooth, was aching like mad and my nerves commenced to jump. That is what caused me to do it. I could not stop myself.'
