Scaler Mr. Carey opened the case at considerable

" foon d seated on her chair quite dead, with marks 



YniiiTT on ber throat, which left no doubt on the mind of the 



* |ll P »h>tahe hsd been murdered by strangulation. It was 

 that the two houses of the prisoner and the deceased were 



a room of the prisoner's house being over a room of 

 §. The houses were very old, and in the room of 

 j house a part of the floor was loose, and a board 

 _e op leaving a hole into the room of the deceased 

 tly large to admit of a person getting through. It was 

 thai the prUoner stated to various persons that she had 

 «akeB •» this board on the day of the old woman's death, and a 

 taken from the old woman's room was found in the 

 box. It was also proved that while in prison she had 

 to the laundress that she had destroyed her aunt 

 when old people came to that age they ought to die! 

 she had stated to other persons in the gaol that the ol d 

 too strong for her. that she had murdered her, and 

 tfeal stood had spurted upon her gown. This gown was pro- 

 4«ced with the marks of blood upon it. After a long and patient 

 ■sassuof up, the jury, to the astonishment of all in court, returned 

 a verdict of Not Guilty ! The trial lasted all day, and the fury 

 of the mob in the street was so great that the police were obliged 

 to keep the prisoner in gaol, lest she should be subjected to surn- 

 ■ary vengeance by the people. 



Socman Circuit, Liverpool. — Rishton, Demandant, v. 

 Xsskit, Taunt.— This was the trial of a writ of right, which had 

 r«r pending, the proceedings having been adjourned from 

 to time, partly in consequence of the slowness of this an- 

 form of action, and partly on account of mistakes origin- 

 in the difficulty of ascertaining the proper mode of carry- 

 ing on the suit, occasioned by the almost entire disuse of this 

 of action, which indeed was abolished by the Legislature 

 ?ears ago, saving such suits as had been then commenced, 

 el which this was one, and at this time the only one in the king- 

 •JJ** disposed of . It will, therefore, be the last of the kind 

 •Jedi ctn occur. At a former assize four knights, girt with 

 •words, appeared in court, and, being first sworn, chose 12 jury- 

 ing, lathis fr.rm of action called compurgators, to try the case. 

 TO proceedings were then adjourned. On Tuursday, the 4th, 

 ■e four knights, Sir T. Brancker, Sir T. Potter, Sir G. Drink- 

 ™j r \* n<1 Sir J- Walmeslcy, appeared and took the seats ap-

should defeat the claim of the demandant, which, indeed, if 

 affirmed, would be very hard upon those who had paid so much 

 money for, and spent so much in improving, the estate. The 

 will of Thomas Minshull was then put in, and the other wills 

 and deeds, so as to trace the title to the present possessors. 

 That being done, Mr. Starkie next proceeded to prove the 

 pedigree, the details of which consisted, as is usual in such cases, 

 of registers of marriages, births, and deaths, and the evidence of 

 old persons connected with the family. This proceeding occu- 

 pied the Court till 5 o'clock. At the close of the tenant's case, 

 Mr. Dundas stated that he had carefullv watched the case 

 throughout, and that he must now admit that he was not able 

 to establish one in reply. A verdict was accordingly returned 

 for the tenant. 



Norfolk Circuit, Burt St. Edmund's.- Frederick Borlep was 

 indicted for setting fire to a building in the occupation of Mary 

 Rust. The first count of the indictment described the building 

 as an outhouse, the second as a warehouse. It appeared that 

 the building which the prisoner was accused of setting on fire 

 stood ina hop-ground belonging to the prosecutrix, and could be 

 seen from her house, but it was unconnected with any of the 

 buildings attached to the house. Mr. Justice Patteson was of 

 opinion that the destroyed building was neither an outhouse nor 

 a warehouse within the meaning of the statute on which the 

 prisoner was indicted. With respect to the former term, it had 

 long been Bettled that in order to constitute an outhouse it must 

 be connected with a dwelling-house, and in some respects parcel 

 of it. This building was a solitary and unconnected erection, 

 and could not be called an outhouse within the meaning of the 

 act of Parliament on which this indictment was framed. Neither 

 was it a "warehouse;" to come under that denomination the 

 building must be such as factors or traders kept their goods in 

 for sale, and where customers went for the purpose of viewing 

 them, and not such as were used for the safe keeping of goods 

 merely. In this case the building was not even used for the safe 

 keeping of goods. He was therefore of opinion that the prisoner 

 must be acquitted. The jury accordingly foui.d the prisoner 

 Not Guilty.— Arthur Hammond and Robert Berry were indicted for 

 feloniously shooting at Thomas Firm in, with intent to do him some 

 grievous bodily harm, or with intent to resist their lawful apprehen- 

 sion. Tiie prosecutor is under-gamekeeper to Mr. Browning, who 

 hires the right of shooting in an extensive wood, called the 

 Hyde, near Bury, of which Sir T. Gage is the owner, and a Mr. 

 Brown the occupier. The prisoners are labourers living in Bury, 

 whose lahours, however, appear to be pursued by night rather 

 than by day, being persons given to the offence of poaching. The 

 Jury Acquitted Hammond, and found Berry Guilty of an assault 

 only, and thereupon sentenced him to six mouths' imprisonment. 

 — Leech Barley was indicted for setting fiie to several barns and 

 stacks of corn, the property of John Gay ford. The prosecutor is 

 a tenant of the Duke of Grafton, under whom he occupies a large 

 farm at Rymer's-point, in the parish of Trowston. The prisoner 

 in November last was a labourer in the parish of Sapston, a vil- 

 lage distant four miles from Trowston. He had been some weeks 

 absent until the night of Sunday, the 19th of November, when 

 he was seen in the neighbourhood of Rymer's-point about the 

 time of the fire, having previously told one of the witnesses that 

 the premises of Mr. Gayford would be fired that night. In addi- 

 tion to this evidence, a convicted felon, who was in the gaol with 

 the prisoner, deposed to a circumstantial confession which he 

 said the prisoner made to him. The Jury found the prisoner 

 Guilty, and he was sentenced to be transported for life. 



Central Criminal Court.— Tub Wills Fori-kriks.— On 

 Thursday morning, Mr. Justice Williams, Mr. Baron Gurney, 

 and Mr. Justice Maule. took their scats ou the bench, and the 

 prisoners, Wm. Henry Barber, Joshua Fletcher, and Oeorgiana 

 Dorey, were placed at the bar, to take their trials for these for- 

 geries. The abstract of the indictment was then read. It con- 

 tained several counts, and related to the forgery of a bond of ad- 

 ministration to obtain possession of certain stock once the pro- 

 perty of John Stewart, gardener, at Old Marlow, Bucks, de- 

 ceased. The Grst count cnarged the forgery of the said bond to 

 one Susanna Richards, also deceased, and laid the intent to be to 

 defraud the Archbishop of Canterbury, as head of the Prerogative 

 Court. It charged the prisoners Barber, Fletcher, and G. Dorey, 

 with being concerned as accomplices in conspiring and uttering 

 the said forged bond, and obtaining the amount of the moneys 

 which stool in the name of John Stewart, to the credit of the 

 .Commissioners for the Reduction of the National Debt. The 

 second count was similar to the first, with the exception that it 

 laid the intention to defraud the Governor and Company of the 

 Bank of England. The third count laid it to defraud the Right 

 Hon. Charles Shaw Lefevre, and others the Commissioners for the 

 reduction of the National Debt for the time being. The fourth 

 to defraud the next of kin, the heirs, administrators, and assigns 

 of the said John Stewart. The Attorney- General then addressed 

 the Jury on the facts of this case which he had selected to com- 

 mence proceedings, the case of Miss Slack being postponed to 

 await the issue of the present trial. The learned counsel entered 

 at great length into the particulars of the case; but it is im- 

 possible to find space to follow him through his minute and 

 elaborate statement, or to give an account of the evidence in 

 support of it. This is, indeed, the less necessary, as all the 

 leading facts have already been laid before our readers, in the 

 reports we have given from time to time of the Examinations at 

 the Mansion House. After sitting the whole day, Baron Gurney 

 said it was impossible to conclude at one sitting, and the Court 

 adjourned. The trial was accordingly resumed yesterday, when 

 the case for the prosecution was brought to a clo*e. Tne evidence 

 was given at great length, and a confession made by Mrs. Dorey 

 was read, stating that it was about 14 or 15 years since she be- 

 came acquainted with Fletcher ; he and his wife were partial to 

 her, and they introduced her to Mr. Stokes, who afterwards soli- 

 cited her to go to the Bank, where she signedhername, for which 

 she got 50/. They then went to Fletcher's and gave the money to 

 her mother ; she remained friendly with Fletcher for some time. 

 Fletcher induced her to commence a trial against Tailor for 

 breach of promise of marriage. After exchanging visits, Mr. 

 Fletcher said he could get money for her at the bank, but he did 

 not say how. She said she would do as he wished her. He then 

 related how he could procure the money from the Commissioners 

 for the Reduction of the National Debt, by representing himself 

 to be the representative of some deceased person, who had left 

 unclaimed stock at the bank. At the close of the prosecutor's 

 case Baron Gurney said that as there was no chance of the trial 

 concluding that night the Court must adjourn to the next day.
