Tba quantity of arsenic, required to impregnate VA ounces to the same extent would be 36 grains, lie bad Impregnated terra quart of water with half a grain to an ounce of fluid, ana tne appearsaee tne irn uoc tctj iw uu sister, where I took him. I bad a little rum ther. It wu rery little of a glaaa.

I did not pay for the rum, nor did 1 propoa that It should be sent for. At the Croat Key wa had a glias of al a piere, and a glass of brandy and water between us. Tbla wu before dinner. I eaixneu tn prisoner at to tnw ivcjh a uiu sou turned him shout, and turned out hit pockets ss much as I thought necessary. I ncrer told the prisoner what I had taken him into custody for.

We remained at the Feathers for aome time be for we went before the Coroner. He told me belie we went in what 1 should find in his box. I now recollect that it ws after we had been before the Coroner. As we came from Plumttead we called in at tba Mortar and bad a glass of peppermint. I waa asked to drink out of some bait I put my lip to It, but did not drink any.

That I swear. I went Into three public houses after I had got pos session of th packages, and stayed arrea hour at one of them. I drank some ale there ana nothing use. i nsa a glass of ale there ia the morning with aome ginger in It, because I bad a pain in my atomach. I showed the arsenic in the Mortar to Mr.

Osborne, who pot bb finger into It. I did not awear before the Coroner that bad not Deen to the Jlor tar that night. I never had a third parcel in paper. Ke exatnlned by Mr. Apoiruia.

I only opened the largest parcel, and I wesr thst the parcel 1 now produce sre the time thst 1 found in the priwoet't box. Msry Iligglns. I lived serrsnt In November last to Mr. John Ilodle, the prisoner's father. I remember Saturday, the 3d of November.

I got up on that morning before 6 o'clock. I went to bed at about 10 o'clock on the night before. I left a email fire In the kitchen. When I got up 1 found the prisoner in the kitchen. A fire bsd been He I wu In the habit of lighting the fare.

I am generally up first, but aometimei Mr.Bodle, the prisonet's father, la. The prisoner was sitting before the fire, I said Hollos," snd he said What did from the Marion of tha coffee, so that he wu obliged to apeak with great latitude. Ma had very seldom made aucn experiments, and had never before made an experiment to detect arsriic. He thought that if there had been any arsenic in the crust from tba coffee bottle be must have found it. Thought that If there bad been arsenic put lato the bottle with the coffe it might be poured out without leaving any arsmic in the crust of tie coffee bottle.

Witness would rely on no teat but that of reproduction. The witness then ifj rhst he had tried that teat, and described the process which be had followed. Th quantity of acrapings from th kettle wu about aa ounce. Jikmh dnxvrd that he wu a eh vmlst at Woolwich. where be carried on a retail trade.

Recollected the 2d of No. vctober. The prisoner came to his shop on the Thursday or Friday previouy.alaoe. He uked me for a little arsenic. He said be wikhed to hsve altule more, for the purpose of poison, ing some He had been there some da) a pretioiuly.

and had thro rwmght tome arsenic lor tne same purpose. A person nanxd sttt, the srhonlinstur of the honl wu with him, and witnessed the whole trsasact'on. I sold him, near I could guest, about ounce. did not on either orraslon state how much be wanted. Witness wrapped it up In paper, on which wu stencilled tlie word Morris, the constable, showed me aom paper of arsenic on the 7th that was about 8 o'clock in the evening.

He brought them to witness's bouse. They appeared to the tint paper that witness had told to the prisoner. On appeared similar to when wimeu hsd sold it, but the other teemed to have had aome taken out of it. There were 30 gralni in the smallest parcel. There are 480 grain to aa ounce, avoirdapob weight.

Morris brought me two bottle on of them wu broken, and had nothing In It but a little round the bottom, which he fraud, by experiment. contained solution of araenle. There wu also a tumbler containing aom arsenic ia eolation. Cross examined. I did not state before the coroner that the amallest parcel contained about 40 grains.

That mistake wu made, but not by witness. Could not positively ssy which parcel wu ibelaat sold, but Its appearance made him beHeve that the largest mm th bat which the prisoner bought. Wirntu had known tht prisoner for about 13 years. At that tim witness wu at school with him. Prisoner knew that witness knew him.

A roan who wu known would be more likely to get served with poison from those who knew him than from strangers. Did not know Watts. Morris wu rather fresh when be cam to witness. Found a paper of ar. aenic lyiar on th counter oa th next morning after be wu there.

Witness found that parcel near to where Morris had been sitting. Witness opened the paper, uw that it contained something white, but not wishing to attend to it then be threw it law the fire Did not think that it had been left by Mania, and did not know that he had had aay there. Th paper wu sensed up. I beard on about the 19th uk. that the prisoner had said that he had a third parcel of araenle.

Mr. Colqubosn had told him of It, and he then Immediately recollected that bad thrown away eaactly tuch a paper aa had been described by him. BclicvcdTost Watts waa master of th National bchooL namtnfd, He asked for two pennyworth. Had had no acquaintance with th prisoner since ha left school. Mr.

ABOLT HCS said that the widow of tha deceased, he had bwea lnfonned, wm exceedingly ill; be would therefore call bet, with psTTnrartnri of th Court, la order that she might go home. Mr. Butler stated that aba wu very IB, and also had great htfrndne. Mr. Clajjcbo said that be had no wish to cross examine bar.

and aha waa allowed to go bom. A ccarreraarion then occurred between th counsel and the learned Jadg ralatir ta tba right of tha defendant's counsel to call witnesses that Wer on lb back of tha bill, when the counsel far th peoaacutloti declined calling them. The learned Judg ltd the court to consult Mr. Baron Vaughan, who wu ia the other court. Oa hb return, a long conrerts Oon aaokplac batweea himself aad the counsel an both aides, and ww aoderstood (but not a word could heard) that It wu tatended rtamint jofio uoau.

He tald thst be hod been chopping aome wood, and that a piece had flown up and scratched hla eye. Neither hb father nor hb mother wer up then. I filled th kettle, and opened the shutters, and went about mr work. He continued silting In the kitchen. I think he wu there for about half an hour.

He asked me if If it wu dsyliebt, snd 1 told htm thst tt wu not. Shortly afterwards 1 heard him go Into the store room and get the milk can. He went then for the milk, and relumed about 8 o'clock, lie went out again, and returned st the dinner hour, 3 o'clock, and dined with Mrs. Bodb's nephew, Mr. J.

Bodlr. the father. I remember Mrs. Bodle snd the prisoner being in the kitchen at about 3 o'clock on that day. He said to bis mother that he would not mind poisoning any one thst he did not like.

11 is mother said that It wu light talking The Dritoner said. Onlr give me the stuff snd you will see." bhe said that the aould not risk her own soul Into danger for any one. Mr. Bodle cam bom at about 6 o'clock. lie came Into the kitchen, un a prevuui aay in u.ti wees, I had beard them talking together In the kitchen.

1 was st work there. It wu between dialer and breakfast. Mrs. Rodle ssiJ to the wrlsoner thst she wbbed Mr. Bodle dead she meant her huthand.

The prisoner said that he wished his grandfather wu dead. Mrs. Bodb said, What for He replied that he should then have a hundred or a thousand, I cannot recollect which, a year. She uld, Lord John, bow can you talk sol" He said that he should like his father to die on one dsy, and bis grandfather the next I said, One should die on one week, and the other on the next' He said AU that would do." I have been kept in the poor.bouM since the Inquest. I roM exstnlncd.

1 never knew the prisoner to have got up so early before. The prisoner seldom rot before he break Cut wu ready but be had got up earlier on the few nrctiout mornings to fetch the milk. On the Monday prrctdlng I do not know whether I or the prisoner wu up hrtt. I do not recollect who wu up first on any other morning In that week. He went for the milk before 7 o'clock on the ctaiurdsy morning.

1 never knew of the prisoner hsring nude a complaint of my conduct. He had no reason to do so. I once msde him sn apple pie bed. It wu not the next day but one after 1 came into the bouse. It wu about four days after I had been in the bouse.

Never went Into his room in the morning before he came out. He never eom plained of my not doing so. I did not think much of the conversation I have mentioned when I beard It spoke. I recollect master calling htm about 6 o'clock, and aaid that hb father's fsmllr were all poisoned. Did not think anything when I beard the news about the previous conversstion between the prisoner and my mistress.

I ssid nothing about it till the day after old Sir. Bodb died. My master csllcd me early on the Wednesdsy morning st about i o'clock. I rot up, and aaw him in the kitchen. He uid that both Parker and Sophia were against John because he bsd filled the kettle on the Saturday morning.

He did not uy that he was going to the magiatrstes, but that be wu going to Woolwich. 1 told him what I had heard pus in th week, and he uid that pcrhapa 1 might be wanted before the magbtraie. I never told Bodle, the father, that th prisoner uid that he had done for one party would do for another, and that he wu quite satisfied with whst he had done. Th father did not uk me if tbe mothet end th prisoner quarrelled. I did not tj that It arose la consequent of the prisoner simmering something over the fire.

Had not beard any one that aha had said any of those thing. Msster, ia the coroner's room, called me something like a bar and a witch. I did not uy, How can you tell such lies He said that he had never said anything to me about the magistrates. I ssid, Why dors he tell such lies He had been Uing a good mtny lift before this. Mr.

Walsh submitted that what Bodle said wu not evidence. Mr. Claiksok would not preu it. Re cxsmined by Mr. Walsu There bu never been sny gruCge or quarrel with the prisoner The conversation I poke to wss carried on in joke.

I wu some time before the coroner, and wu confronted with Mr. and Mrs. Bodlr, and permuted throughout In the truth of my eutement. Mr. ADOLfHCt.

Thst is the esse for the prosecution. Mr. Clabxsox. Now there are six witnesses on the back of the bill, neither of whom bu been called. Mr ADOLmis.

While he wu confined a young woman came from Mr. Pitt with a candle, a pslrof ink, and paper, for Martin to know if be wlthed to communicate annhlne to "Mr. Pitt.

He delivered the paper bark un touched, andrcfused to write anything. Mr. Rtwlinson discharged Martin, remarking that It wu a very serious ca.e,and that Mr. Pitt wu liable to an action for false Imprisonment. r.

Pitt hat a relation la tha police. Croas examlned by th de endant. Yoa have a son who a sergeant of police, but not In mr divbion. i ou never communicated with me until thb affair. Algernon health, police constable 23, and Jeremiah Bankea, a man who wu confined in the stsuon.house at th same time on a charge of Intoxication, corroborated the state, menu of the Ustwltncu and the prosecutor.

The defendant. In a rambling and violent ipeech, addressed the Court snd Jury npwsrds of an hour. II set out with uytng that, notwithstanding the feerned counsel for the prosecution hid claused him with Benbow, his character for honour snd integrity wu unblemished and though be had tpent 17 yrart of hb life, niid 30,000. too. In the pursuit of justice, he had ncrer mixed himself up in politics, and so convince I were those to who he had appealed of lib honourable character that hb rase had been recommended to tl Board of Treuiiry He wu person of the same cut with Benbow Michael Thompson, a policeman, hsd been indicted with him, in consequence of which he waited upon Colonel Rowan and represented the bad economy which did not provide tbe means ot delenre lor police orhcers.

Mr M'William (a magistrate) requested the defendant would not bawl suloud. Laughter. He resumed, and was proceeding lo uy that he should certainly have followed up the charge he made, but for the regard he entctslned for the prosecutor's sister, whom he had p'otreud both when a wife and a widow. The ouct reminded him thst his cam wat very short he had only to sntwrr the charge of Imprisoning the prosecutor. He replied that he admitted having given blm Into custody described, but he would not have don so had it not been for certain discoveries he made respecting his conduct.

None whttever.

The CliAlkHAV. In pasting sentence, uld the Court could not but feci tbat the defendant had availed himself of some false pretence to shut up the young man, Martin, la prison, for the purpose of obtaining something to suit his ohiect in another cae. He had also greatly aggravated his offence by calling him a pauper in the rneerlag way ke had done, proving the kind of spirit in which be procured hb Imprisonment. The Court felt, therefore, that lttlce would not be done without some retaliation. He wu then sentenced to ba Imprisoned In the House of Correction for one werk, to pay a hne of 10 and to be detained until paid, with liberty to apeak to the rotecntor.

Mr. Croker procrcde I to state, that he bad also paid the art saner Ibe sum of It 13 that person having furnished him with a bill for meal to that anxtavt, when, in fact, th sum due for tba articb wu only 13a, Instead of th above amount. Mr. Turner, the comdealeT, proved that Mr. Croker wu Indebted to him a sum of U.

which sum, It will be recollected. Croker had lntrpated to the prisoner to pay over to witness. Mr. Ursvrt, a mealman, alao proved that there wu only 13. da to him by Mr.
