Mr. Hetchard—Your lordship had better sseertaio that from the wheaten, whom I decline to examine. —, the mother of the girl, was then 'ermined by the bishop, and mated the convereatious she had had with her daughter. In consequence of what her daughter told her she weneulted Mr. Retuned, who advised her to remove the child at once from the Sisters of Mercy. The witness, in reply to the questions put by the Rev. Mr. Darling (who acted on behalf of Mr. ?mane), said—My daughter was one of the witnesses examined at the inquiry which took plate four years ego. I was urged to take the child away, and hopes were held out of getting her into the Orphans asylum. I was refused employment makes I took her sway. I woo is poverty at the time. My hus band wee um of the seamen lost in the Avenger. When the child was taken away I was not receiving money from the Avenger fund. I received money afterwards. A sub scription was necessary to get the child into the Orphan Asylum—l think 81. or 91. 1 was told that the persons by whose advice my daughter was removed had got 84, or a sum of that sort, boa government towards pitting her into the asylum. I had no ream to believe the 8/ came from the Avenger feed. The child was plaited with the fasten of Mercy. After that I reetived no more mosey from the fund. As well is I eon remember there ought to be 141. or 151. due to me. I have had a conver sation with Mr. Hatchard on the subject within the last few weeks. He said, if I mold recollect the person I first went to for the money, be would try to get it, if it was in his power. By the Bishop—The people who urged me to take my daughter from the Sisters of Mercy, after the former in quiry, were the persons I worked tor. y Mi. Darling—The girl was left on my hands lifter that. I found great diamilty in maintaining her, he cause my money was stopped, and they would not give , me anything from the parish. lat last resolved to put her beck to the Sisters of Mercy. M employers were very angry. Mr. Beeper maid I shou ld never do so other days work for him. I have been in great wane. I was in great distress before I received my child the second time. Mrs. Hatehard has told me she would do what she meld fur me and the child. Mr. Ratehard did not employ me before the child was taken away. He did after wards. I thought by removing the child 'should get work. I had three reasons for removing her. The first was on too count of Mr. Peyton asking her indecent questions ; the second was, I had heard of children being sent away with • oat being at liberty to write to their friends; aad the next war, I was afraid of her being made a Roman catholic. The reasons I more to the Setters of Mercy. on removing her, were that I could not get work while the chid was there, and that I thought she was old enough *get $ place. I gave them no other reasons. By the Bishop — Did you understand that the questiose put by Mr. Prynne to the child were for the child's good or I not ? Witness—l could not think it could be for her pod. I should think it would he enlightening her in wickednmes By Mr. Darling-1 went to Mr. Utilh•rd before the child was removed. I had iestructioes to take her to him immediately after her removal. I believe the child had been brought up hi a proper manner by the ladies, and I don't think I could be too thankful for what they have done for her. By the Bishop—l consider my daughter to have been improved in her conduct and character during the time she wee living there, in spite of the questions pet by Mr. tly Mr. Darling—She has been staying at Mr. Hatelierd's house for a fortnight. I bare not seen anything rude or indelicate in her conduct. I had a person lodging with me while my daughter was in the town with me. By what I can learn she was a woman of bsd character, but I did not kenw that when I took her in. She slept in the same room with me and my daughter. The girl was then called in, and, after acknowledgiag the statement already given to be in her handwriting,was ques tioned by Mr. Darling. She said—l went to confenion about two years ago. I was obliged to go. I was taken by one of the ladies. I did not ask leave to go beforehand. Mr. Prynne never told me that I must go to confession. One el the ladies would come and take us. By the Bishop—The first time I went to unkation one of the ladies told me I was to go. She took By Mr. Darling—lt was necessary to go regularly to con- Renee ogee a mouth. The last time I went to confusion was just before the last Confirmation. I cannot remember anything about the first contusion. It lasted about a gutter of an hoer. Mr. Prynne then gave me absolution. By the Bishop—l was 12 years old at that time. I was 14 lut May. By Mr. Darling—l confessed things at that time which were diflicalt for a' to say. I unformed everything 1 re membered. Mr. Prynne asked me questions to help me in making a full confection. By the Bishop—l told him something of myself, and then he 'eked me questions upon the things I had told him. I told him what I thought was wrong in my ecieduct, and he this pis questions to make as exploit matters. He asked if I hod somosinwi say improper actions. I told him what I thought' WI dose wrong,. and he then asked me vicunas. ,• Nene el the improper questions were asked at the first con ' fission. ' By Mr. Darling—l think the questions were pot to show how wicked the things ware which I had done. • Mr. Darling—Rad youdooe thethings Mr. Parolee asked ' pow about? The bishop hero interfered, and after some discussion it was arranged that the examination into the details should be taken in a private room, in the presence of the bishop, Mr. Bacchant, end Mr. Guavas, on one side, and Mr. Prynne and Mr. Darling on the other, the aborthsol writer being directed to communicate the examination to the gentlemen connects d with the press. The arrangement wee carried out, but the details given by the girl of the sins which she had confused were of a nature totally unfit for publication. We msy state, however, that she cc . knowledged having been guilty of incest. On the return of the bishop and the other parties to the public room, the following written statements were put in by Mr. Darling : —'s mother came and asked te take her child home, nod said that she could not get bread to eat unless she did eo ; that her living was taken from her, and she was threatened with entire loss of work, unless she to..k Thies* sway from the sisters. She said that the ladies in Plymouth came and talked to her, and that Mrs. Hat chard had provided a place for her child ; sod that they would not let her alone, so that she did not know what to do. She thought that should go and try how she liked it, and that then the sisters would receive her bark again. C•THR•1•111 R. CHANNEL% Sian of Mercy. Sep. 21, 1852."
