While in the custody of I tarry Adkins be was handcuffed and ironed, and two persons were txmtimially kept to watch over him ; and wheit Smith the gaoler of Bow-street, delivered him into the (grittily rif the keeper of Newgate, he inti mate.] that he might to watched with ronsideruble eau %inn. Fridav morning, when he was called out with thwuther lark:one - es who were to be tried, from t' a yard, he ran to the privy, and shortly afterwards he was found with hi* throat cut frtnn car t., ear, a n d his head nearly severed lima his body. The !dace, as might Is' suspected, was a complete gore of Wood. Near to him was foutel a crooked razor, and. not far from it a duet:meta written by himself, in which it was stated, that the razor, with whie% he had perretrated the horrid decal was the same with which he murdered . Mary Nlittting, mut that he had secreted it about Itia, ever since, although it may be recollected that he told Adkins upon his apprehension, that he had thrown the instrument, with which he committed it, is.to the Thames. The paper also stated, that he intended to have murdered Mary Minting with a pistol—that it was his intention first to have shot her, and next him self. The body was removed into the yard, and the circumstance occasioned the greatest alarm and c n:- stensation. The Court wa excessively crowded at an early hour, particularly by ladies. On the arrival of the Judges,. at ten o'clock, the father of Nlary Minting aseen.led the witness box, anti addressed their Lordships as titilows :—" My Lord, William Ilaitch has cut his throat in the prisou, and as I mu a very poor man, I hope your lordship will allow me my expenses." Mr. Baron Graham.—" Your appli:ation is made at an im propor time ; we will consider it hy and bye." ne officers who searched him say, it was impossible that he emill have had a razor tarot him.
