HERTFORD, JULY So. Jaws Harris, James . Davis, and Jaines Unit:, were arraigned upon an indictment for a burglary in the dwelling-house of J. Haines, steward of Ettil Cowper, at Hertingfordbury, Ana stealing Bank notes and other valuables to a large amount, the property of his Lordship. The prisoners pleaded not guilty ; but in consequence re the expected length of time which the case was likely to take up, the trial was postponed until to-morrow 'morning, at eight o'clock. The Cotter then proceeded to the folloaing case of burglary, which has excited considerable interest in the County : William 4 1 1 N Y -shall the elder, William Marshall the younger, and John Cartwright, were indicted for bur glariously breaking and enter ing the dwelling-house of Charles Gordon, Esq. at Berkhampstead, in the night of the 17th March last, aid stealing therein various arti cles of gold and silver plate, and Bank notes and gold coin to A considerable amount. Mr. Serjeant 'FADDY and Mr. Bern:snick conducted the prosecution. The Learned Serjeant gave to the Jury an outline of the case. In the evening of the 17th of March, when the prosecutor and his family retired to rest, the house was fastened. At an early hour the fol lowing morning, when the gardener came to his work on the premises, he discovered that the house had been entered at the pantry window and robbed. He imme diately aroused the heti or servant, when it was disco vered that various al titles of plate were stolen from the butler's pantry, and that the prosecutor's library had been entered, and his desk, containing thirty•two gui neas, nine half-guineas, four seven-shilling pieces, and Inurteen five-pound Bank of Euglend notes, were miss ing. Upon the lawn before the house the desk was found, broken open, the valuable contents gone, and the papers scattered on the ground. The butler's box had also been broken open, and a pair of his smell-clothes were missing, but they were afterwards found upon a fence treat the house. Suspicion falling upon the pri soners, they were apprehended on suspicion .f this and' , other robberies. The accomplice, Ingram, was now to 'be admitted as an approver; but the Learned Serjeant warned the Jury that they ought to receive his evidence with great caution, for although a competent witness in i point of law, yet as he was deeply interested himself in avoiding the consequences of his oven crimes, it be hoved them to watch firs evidence with jealousy, and not give him full credence, unless. he was coirobo• rated by other circumstances, which would be proved in evidence, by unsuspected testimony. The accomplice .Ingram would state that the prisoners and himself had planned the robbery in London, at the suggestion of Marshall the elder, who, having been a servant of the prosecutor, was well acquainted with his late master's premises, and had basely used that knowledge to effect the heinous crime with which he now stood charged.— Having planned the robbery, they met together at Writ lord on the 17th March, and thence proceeded to the prosecutor's house at Berkhampsted, and after the fa mily had retired :o rest, they proceeded to effect the robbery, under the direction of Marshall the eldee t An entrance was effected at the pantry window, and'after plundering the house of the property mentioned in the indictment, they returned to London by the St. Alban's coach. In their way they shared the gold coin which had•been stolen. The rest of the property they dis p-sed of to a Jew, named Barnett, in Catherine-wheel 'alley, 13ishopsgate-street, and divided the proceeds amongst them —These erre the leading circumstances of the accomplice's sect y, and it he should be confirmed, as no doubt he would in many of the facts he would . state, the duty of the Jury would be, to pronounce their verdict according to the evidence. Charles Gordon, Esq. the prosecutor, who appeared to be advanced in years, proved that the desk in cities arm had been on his library table on the evening of the 17th of March. It contained the monies aril bank notes mentioned in the indictment ; it also contained a pocket-bock and tin case. He saw the desk lying on the lawn next morning, robbed of its contents. The ' prisoner William Marshall, the elder, had lived with him as a set var,t. John Ingram, the accomplice, was then examined. In the commencement of his evidence he was manifestly trying to hang back, and appeared disinclined to say anything affectt,ig the prisoners. He was warned by the Learned judge, that he must speak the truth, and tell the »Is .le stet y ; for if, a. his Lordship told him, there vt as any shuffling or attempt at evasion, he would not receive that protection which the law held out to him as an approver. lie should still he tried for this offence, and therefore he gave his testimony with a to• e about his neck. The witness said he wished to tell the truth, to the best of his recollection. He said fie re- . membered going with the three prisoners to a house at Bei klranrpstead, but he had not the least recollection of the day, nor even of the month ; be bad met them se veral times before at the Cock public-house, in a street at the back of the Haymarket, the name of which be din not recollect ; he accompanied the prisoner Car is right from London; they started together from Oztor Uroad, in the moi ning, by the Watford coach; they met the two Marshals at Watford, where they stopped by appoint ment; they went to a public house at Watford and had refreshment. Having quitted the house they went down a lane, and came to a hovel near a Gentleman's house. They sat down a considerable time under the hovel, and from thence they proceeded to the house, which they entered. They got over the garden-wall first ; there was some kind of glass frame and a net in the gar den; and he thought they tossed them into the pond, nt was not sure; he thought he might seriture to say that they tossed them into the pond. So many things occurred since that he could nut recollect; he thought be tossed them himself into the pond; indeed he could', venture to say that he did ; he could not carry the cir cumstances exactly in his memory. They proceeded then to the house. The prisoner, Wm. Mar•ball the elder, strewed him the pantry window, and all round the house. They were all intoxicated at the time. The reluctance of the w itness to say anything against his accomplices again became manifest, and the Judge warned him of the consequences if he did not speak the whale truth. He then burst into tears, and addressing the Judge said-- ,, In the unfortunate situation in which I am placed, I find it difficult to bring myself to say anything against my fellow-men at the bar, it goes against my heart; it is my duty to do so, and I mean to speak the truths I hope your Lordship will have mercy upon them: lam truly sorry for the WA) for they are not persons of the worst character." The Junog told him he, as a witness, coat* make no bargains wish a Court of Justice; be mutt tell the truth, or forfeit his own claim to mercy. ',:. ' Tile witness then proceeded with more fftedom to • • tnte, chat they ttent together on the night in que , tion, by previous concert, to rob the house of the prosecutor, in whose service MatihUll the elder told the others he had lived.. They had provided themselves with all ihi necessai y implements for housebieaking ; a stock and centre bit, piCiclock keys, a dark lanthorn, &c. The prisoriet Cartwright ahu himself first entered the house; they went in at the pantry window, which Cartwright pulled down. The latter handed out to the Mar4talls the articles of plate found in the pantry. They were small articles, such as silver milk jugs, spoons, and forks. Cartwright then opened the back-front door, and let in Marshall, who had lived in the prosecutor's service. The other Marshall remained outside in the lane. Tile prisoner, Marshall the elder, then pointed out the door of his old master's library, where he ke l it his cash. A picklock was applied to the door. Mar shall the elder said, 44 I'll chew you where the old man keeps his money." Upon entering the room, they found a desk, which was handed out by the latter prisoner to the other Marshall. A pair of smallclothes was also handed out, which were afterwards hung upon a hedge adjoining a wall. Marshall the elder then said he knew a secret cupboard, where the family plate was kept. The prisoner Cartwright was proceeding up the stairs, when seeing a figure standing at the top of the stairs, he said he thought he saw somebody, and he did not go up. The figure was only an image holding out a lamp in its hand. It was then agreed that before they Li:a cceded father they should search the desk, and see what it contained. They returned to the lawn, broke open the desk, and found it to contain fourteen five pound notes, forty-five pounds in gold, and five gold buckles. This property they secured, but left the papers and the desk upon thd lawn. They returned to the house, and after a short stay, they quitted, and pro ceeded in the direction towards London, by Hemel hern psted, and on arrival at St. Alban's, they got upon a coach which had just come up at the moment. They divided the gold coin before they got toHemelhempsted. Cartwright had the bank notes. On arriving in London they got off the coach in John-street, Clerkensvell, and then proceeded to a court called Catherine Wheel-alley, Bishopsgate-street, to the house of a man named Barnett. There they disposed of the bank-notes and the plate. 1 1 Witness had seen Barnett two or three times before, - , and received money from him in exchange for stolen - - - - - - - - goods. I3arnett weighed the silver, and he gave them .15.6 d. a►► ounce for it. Witness received as his share of the plunder about 401. altogether; they then parted for their respective homes. Till the latter end of July, last year, witness lived with Mr. Bainbridge, a Gentle man residing at No. 40, Harley-street.. Before then be had lived as servant with a Lady in Devonshire -street, to whom he attributed all his misfortunes. He lived with her till the death of her husband, and then she turned him adrift without money, and refused to give him a good character. Thus bereft of the means of ho.' nest livelihood, he was driven to the courses which he had since pursued. He had been once in the House of Correction, for being found in the area of a Gentleman's house in Bedford-place. This was since he had left Mr. Bainbridge's. He had also been in trouble for stealing a man's hat at Chating•cross, being determined not to want money. He would have got his money by honest industry, if he had not lost his character. The other prisoners asked the witness no questions. Several other witnesses were then examined to prove other parts of the case, in confirmation tithe accomplice. The case for the prosecution being closed, the pri soners were severally called upon for their defence. The elder Marshall, who had been servant to the pro secutor, denied that he had, in point of fact, arty share in the robbery, but he admitted that Ingram had met him at a house of call for servants out of place, and asked him several questions respecting the family and the house of the prosecutor: conceiving that his object in so doing was to get employed in the prosecutor's service, he accompanied him into Hertfordshire on the day in question, and drank with him at several pub lic-houses at Watford ; but •in consequence of their having some dispute, they parted in the evening, and he never had any participation whatever in the robbery with which he e as charged. He called a person named Clarke, a shopkeeper in Market -street, Haymarket, who gave the prisoner an excellent character for many years. The younger Marshall said nothing, but that he had been a servant for a great many years in several re spectable families, and he put it to the Jury, whether it was probable that he should have participated in the robbery in question ? The Learned Judge summed up the evidence with stiict impartiality, and left it to them to consider the guilt or innocence of the prisoners. The Jury considered of their verdict for about five minutes, and found all the prisoners guilty—Death. Another charge against the prisoners, for robbing the house of the Rev. Mr. Pym, a Gentleman of fortune, re siding at Radwell, was not proceeded in. Ingram, the accomplice, applied to the Court to have 39 sovereigns returned to him, which had been found upon his person when he was apprehended, but the Learned Judge refused the application, on the ground that the money was part of the proceeds of the robbery is Mr. Pynt's house; but his Lordship ordered two watches, which were not identified, to be given up to him. The Grand Jury have thrown out the bill against Padfield, of Shire lane, as an accessory before the fact in the robbery of Earl Cowper's steward. OXFORD, JULY 30. Henry Pittascay, aged 28 years, and lYilliam James, aged 48 years, were indicted for having, on the lEth of June last, wilfully and maliciously shot at and murdered James Millie, a gamekeeper of Lord Churchill, at the Forest of Wclivrcs.d, in the parish of Hail 4, in the county of Oxford. The prisoners pleaded Not Guilty. Maps and plans of the place where the murder was perpetrated were produced by the Counsel for the Crown;, they were very large, and nearly covered the Council table. Mr. Justice PARK, previous to the trial, examined them very carefully. Mr. TauNrom stated the caselor the prosecution. The deceased was occasionally employed as an assist 'ant keener in Wychwood Forest. On the :, sth of June, he was 'found by a person named Young, lying on the ground in the forest,having been wounded by two balls shot from a gun. One of the balls slightly wounded him, and the other severely in one of his thighs. Young was attracted to the spot by the moaning of the deceased, and immediately went to hint, and got assistance.— The tracks hi the persons who com mitted this murder were distinctly seen. About half an hour before the gun was fired the prisoners were seen together; a short time before, the deceased passed by the house of Pitt• a N ay ; Puttaway followed him, and soon afterwards Pitt away and James were seen together in a potatoe-field, which they crossed and payed into the forest, through Ran Hill Gate. Frets this place to the spot where • the deceased teas Wounded was 959 yards, 2 dicance that a person might walk in about twenty minutes. This was about eight °clock. In ten minutes after a gun was fired by the brother of the deceased at a r.thhit, and it wGuld he important for the Ju► y to pay every attentfon to the evidence of the person who flied this gun. In ten mi. notes after a second gun was filed. the report of which was louder than the termer. This report was heard by Jo-e t ult Mullin, but he heard no cry or groan. lie pro ceeded towards the spot from whence he believed the teport proceeded, and saw the two prisoners in company. He bad at conver•ation with them, and James asked him if he had fired? He replied that he had not, hut ne heard someone else fire. James then askei him it he had hrarl any one cry "murder?" he said he had n o t, and janie3 said, is we %%ere standing by the milking stile (950 from the spot where the deceased was shot) and heard a shot fi.ed in Hensgrove, and heard a cry of mur der, and we thuught it, was the cry of your brother dem. If their account was true, they had paned by the place Isom whence the cry had proceeded. The deceased's brother left them, and they walked away he, however ) thought proper to watch their motions, and 34W them go to a gap, from which they could have a view of the deceased, who was lying in a dying state. His brother went on and found the deceased in the situation in which he (Mr. Taunton) had described. He was carried to S:tothnioie Lodge,and died in half an hour afterwards. In the course of that evening, the prisoners were at the Hit or tLiss public-house. The: e were persons named Rawley and Sims there at the time, and the pi isonet s said that James Millins had been shot in the wood—that they stood by East Hill gate and hoard the cry ot murder— that they carried him to the Lodge, but he was not dead. conversation took place at 12 o'clock on the •niglit of the mui der. He ought also to observe, that the prisoner Pittaway had said to different persons on the niglit in question, that he should go early to bed; but instead ot his doing so, he was seen our, at one time with a brown frock on, and at another time without one. It would also be proved that Pittaway had a gun which took to pieces. James said, that he and Pittaway were near to the ast Hill gate, and saw a man running down the riding; that they heard a sigh in the cover, and went to the spot, and saw the deceased lying on the ground. He (James) said to the deceased, " Where is thy gun?" The deceased replied, " I have not got one." He also said the poachers had shot him. The learned Counsel then related certain declaravons of James before and after his apprehension. To shew that the prisoner James en tertained revengeful feelings towards the deceased, he should state that a man named Bayliss, who was an assistant to the deceased, who was keeper of the forest, bad preferred against James a charge of stealing veni son, and James subsequently declared that he would as soon shoot the deceased's head off as he would take off the head of a fly. Pittaway had also declared that_he should not mind killing Malin, if there ss as nobody by at the time, and that murder would he done in the Fo rest this summer. The prisoner Jan es had also laid, •" Revenge is sweet, let the LORD pay it." He called upon the Jury to consider the facts with the utmost attention, and decide according to the evidence brought before them. Several witnesses were called in support of the open ing speech, and the prisoners being called on for their defence, declined saying anything. Mr. Justice PARK summed up the case, and after the Jury had consulted for about a quarter of an hour, without retiring from the box, they pronounced a ter dictof Guilty. Mr. Justice PARK, in a most impressive manner, thett pronounced the awful sentence of Death, aid that their bodies should be afterwards dissected and anatomi2ed. The prisoners repeatedly declated their innocetice, and said that they were murdered men. As usual in cases of murder, theexecution will take place on Monday next.
