(Sittings at Nisi • Prins, before Lord Chief Justice Cockburn and a Common Jury.) APPLETON V. MORSE.--BREA.CII OF PROMISE OF MARRIAGE. Miss Jane Appleton, the plaintiff, sued Mr. Thos. Morse, the defendant,_ to recover damages for breach of his promise to marry her, and he pleaded that they had agreed that the contract should be rescinded, but he did not appear per sonally or by counsel to support his defence. Mr. Phinn, Q.C., and Mr. Pearce appeared for the plaintiff. Mr. Phinn, in opening the case, said the plaintiff was the daughter of a tradesman of great respecta bility, and she sued the defendant in consequence of a most wanton breach of his promise to marry her. Cases of this kind presented an infinite variety of circumstances. Sometimes they came before a jury in a very mitigated form, but other times they called for very serious and grave reprehension ; and he had hardly ever heard of a case that re quired more unqualified condemnation on the part of every one who heard - of the conduct of the de fendant than this did. The defendant was a pub ' lican keeping .the Chester Arms, in Bunhill-row, and in the course of his business ho became acquainted with Mr. Forrester, a collector to a brewer, who had m trried the sister of the plaintiff. The acquaintance between the plaintiff and defen dant took place early in last year, the introduction being at a place which seemed favourable to intro ductions of the kind—the Crystal Palace—and the date was Good Friday. The defendant seemed much smitten by the plaintiff's attractions, and proposed to visit her on the following Sunday, and matters progressed so rapidly that, on the 28th of April, a correspondence commenced with which he need not trouble them in detail, there being about forty letters, but he would read one or two as a sample. The learned counsel then read the following letters : "London, 14th May, 1856. _ _ _ _ _ " MY DEAR JANE,—By that name I feel I ought to address you. lam afraid I cannot accept your kind invit .tion to tea on Sunday afternoon, but I shall have infinite pleasure in being with you from six to seven o'clock, and have the satisfaction of spending a fiw hours in your agreeable society. I got home safe and sound the other night, and at your sister's shutters lapped, but her was in the arms of Morpus—(a laugh)—enjoying a sweet sound sleep. Regretting I have not the pleasure of being so situated ; but perhaps the day is not far distant. I hope, my dear, that you are enjoying good health, as this delightful weather must be fine in your part; Don't be surprised if you see me some fine morning to taste your hot rolls and butter. (Laughter.) With my best respects to your bro ther, tell him the order for the theatre nex t wee k will be safe. Expecting to hear from you I remain,' my dear Jane, " Yours affectionately, " THOMAS MORSE." " London, 26th May, 1857. " MY DEAR JANE,.—On Sunday much solace and comfort did your kind, feeling, and affectionate note convey to my heart, for which permit me to offer you my warmest and fondest thanks, parti cularly coming from the hand of a lady where one is fondly attached. lam now most happy to in form you I am much better, and able to assist in my business alittle. To-morrow (Wednesday) being the Derby day, I don't feel well enough for the bustle, but propose calling upon your niece, in the Clapham-road, to-morrow afternoon, so I may see many folks return. If you are not otherwise en gaged, I will meet you at your sister's, Mrs. For rester's, to-morrow afternoon, say six o'clock (not to tea). I hope, my dear Jane, you are in good health and spirits. I have had a sharp bout of it. I compare myself to a mushroom, down at night and up in the morning. (Loud laughter.) Taking word from your note,- I wish we was differently situated, that we may love and cherish each other in sickness and in health. With my warmest at tachment and fondest love, "I am, yours, i I I:TOMAS MORSE." "Bunbill-row, 2nd July, 1857. "MY DEAR JANE,-I have no doubt you con: , eider my last very short, but I was so very late and unable to see my friend after I left you. I did not feel inclined to chance the tickets for the dinner of yesterday, and considering the weather I do not feel disappointed. To-morrow (Friday) being generally a quiet day with us, I shall nave much pleasure in seeing you here with your sister, or by you'self, to tea. I shall be at home at half-pas five o'clock, if that time will be convenient to you. You must n.Tit expect ceremonies in the house of a widower, without the important *piece of furniture ; but I trust it is already manufactured and only re quires a slight remove. (Laughter.) I begin now, my dear, to feel that after enjoying a delightful share of happiness for years, and now living such an unsettled life makes one feel dejected, and such feeling must be removed. Is there such a party that can do it Yes. Trust you are well, as lam quite so. "I remain, my dear Jane, yours affectionately, THOMAS MORSE." The correspondence went on, and it was now neces sary to call their attention to a very serious feature of the case. While this tender c'Trespondence was going on this gentleman thought it better to have a second string to his bbw, and he made the ac quaintance of a young lady named Wells, who was a barmaid, and who had gone to live with Mrs "Sandell, who kept a public-house in the Borough. He paid Miss Wells the most devoted attention; and he, in fact, divided his time between her and Miss Appleton. But in the course of her acquaint ance with Miss Wells he was introduced to her mistress, Mrs: Sandell, and one occasion, on . going , into her cellar to mix her beer and gin, he made love to Mrs. Sandell, and after some months she had the honour of becoming Mrs. Morse. He was makin love to all three at the same time—Miss Appleton, Miss Wells, and Mrs. Sandell—but, as usual on these occasions, 'the widow carried the day. (A laugh.) The' plaintiff was, of course, utterly ignorant of these proceedings„ , but . „ unhappily for the defendant, his otvn barmaid `seemed to resent his conduct, and she disclosed the fatal secret, that while Miss Wells *as visiting him he was terribly afraid lest the widow should drop in to supper. In September or October, he told her that the widow wws to I:exortie Mrs. dorse, and that without any remorse on his part. His barmaid expressed great surprise, and he said, " I have found out that the widow has a deal more money than Miss Apple ton," that young lady's fortune being 1,000/. Under these circumstances, there was no alternative but to bring this action. Of comae, Clore were many laughable incidents in cases of this kind, but though they might be moved to laughter, he trusted that they would bear in mind the serious injury that had been inflicted on . the plaintiff. Mrs. Sarah Forrester—On Good Friday last I and my husband proposed to go to the Crystal Palace, and told Mr. Morse so. He said—" If your sister (the plaintif;) goes, I will make one of the party." We all went to the Palace, and aft, r that the defendant fr.tquently visited - the plaintiff at my house. He paid, attentions to my sister. He had seen her frequently before, and. he asked me to make an appointment for him. He said it was his wish to be introduced to my sister, to become her husband, and I introduced him on that footing. After that I had conversations with the defendant in reference to his approaching marriage. About June last he. produce 1 to me a wedding-ring. It was put into my hand to look at, and [ said I hoped my sister would not regret wearing it. He said —"lf I did not think of getting a good wife , , I would go and jump into the names." (Laughter.) On another occasion we were talking about getting married, and I said, you are not like a giddy young man ; perhaps you will be married quietly. The Lord Chief Justice — Wha t is his age? Witness _About 45, I should say. He said, " Quite right." He paid his attentions to my sister down to October or November last. He visited my sister at my house at times,. and I fre quently accompanied her to his house. In October or November I heard. of his marriage with another lady. To the Lord Chief Justice—He did not visit so frequently at the latter part of the time. He made excuses. He said he had a lawsuit on hand, which prevented him coming. He never said he did not intend to marry my sister. - Miss Jaw Carr—ln the early part of last year I was living as barmaid with the defendant. He keeps a public-house, No. 62, Bun.hill-row, St. Luke's. About Easter he said he had some friends coming to tea, and Miss Appleton and Mr. and Mrs. Forrester came. About a month of er he showed me a ring, and told me that it was a wedding ring, and ho intended to be married to Miss Appleton. About two months after wards he viaited Mr. and Mrs. Neale at Putney, and on that occasion he told me he was going to be married to Miss Appleton. He gave me directions on the fol lowing morning to measure the room for a new carpet, and asked the to tell him what furniture vv , is required, as Mrs. Morse was coming home. About midsummer he mentioned Miss Wells to me. He said he had commenced a correspondence with Miss Wells, who was then living as barmaid at Mr. Thornett's, the Cloth workers' Arms, Arlington-street, Islington. He said she had 5001. Mr. Thornett got married soon afterwards and Miss Wells left. The defendant mentioned to me that he had been to see Miss Was at her new place, Mrs. Sandell', and that Mrs. Sandell had asked him to go into the cellar to make up her gin and beer, which he did, leaving a man named Good to" play the amiable to Miss Weals during his absence. (Laughter.) He always gave me to understand that Miss Appleton was to be my future mistress. Miss Appleton and her sister used to come, and he always made excuses to get them out of the way in time for Mrs. Sandell to come. He used to see them to an omnibus and then ll turned with Mrs. Sandell in a cab. He showed me letters from Mrs. Sandell. The Lord Chief Justice—You were his general confidant then ? Witness—About the 15th October he said be was going to be married to Mrs. Sandell. I expressed my surprise, and asked him what Miss Appleton would say 1 He laughed, and said the widow bad the most money, and old fools were at all times the worst of fools. (Laughter.) The Lord Chief Justice—Who was the old fool, Mrs. Sandell ? What age was Miss Appleton ? Witness—About 44. Mrs. Sandell was about 50. He discharged me, telling me he was married to Mrs. Sandell. Mr. Charles Berry—About Easter I had a con versation with the defendant as to his approach - ' ing marriage. He mentioned Miss Appleton. Afterwards be said he had gone to visit a young lady of the name of Vt ells, and had so become acquainted with Mrs. Sandell. He said he saw Mr'. Sandell, and she said, "I suppose you are a publi can ?" He replied that he was, and she then asked him to go down to look at ber stock and at things in the cellar. (Laughter.) I told him I thought it was a very good opi•ming—(loud laugh' ter)—but he said that Mrs. Sandell had paid 4,0001. some odd hundreds for her house, and bad besides 1901. or 1191. a-year from property. The defendant has since introduced me to Mrs. Sandell by the name of Mrs. Morse. The defendant has a - lease of his house at Bunhill-row, of which 30 years are unexpired. It is worth 7001. I used to visit him twice a-week. At one time he used to be doing . a good business there, lint as soon as he took op with this scheme of getting a wife he rather neglec ted his business. (A laugh.) The Lord Chief Justice said he did, not think there was any great deal of romance in this matter; the defendant was 40 or 50, the lady was on the wrong side of 40, and the lady he had married was older than either. Sti 1 a woman who had lost an eligible settlement-, and who found.herself jilted, was entitled to damages. On the other hand, when he looked at the defendant's conduet he could not see anything in his favour. Verdict for the plaintif f —Damages, 3001. LANCASTER ASSIZAS. lICROWN COURT. (Before Mr. Baron Martin.) LANCASTNR, SATUADA This morning, Thomas Kershaw, 19, factory worker, and Catherine Kershaw, 53, hi s mo ther, were placed in she dock, indicted for having, a t Over Darwen, near Blackburn, on the 13th of Jan• last, feloniously, &c., killed Robert Kershaw. Thomas Kershaw was also indicted with having committed the said murder, and Catherine Kershaw with having feloniously, arc., received, harboured, and maintained Thomas Kershaw, knowing him t° have committed the crime. In addition, Thomas Kershaw was indicted f or having, in Preston Gaol, attacked James Collings, with intent to du bodily harm. To the first count in the indictment both prison' era pleaded not guilty. To the second, charging Thomas Kershaw with the attempt upon Jame s Collings, he (the prison er Th os . K ers h aw ) p l e aded guilty, although it was agreed previously not to take his plea. It will be remembered that deceased was, upon,. the night of the 13th Jan., found in his cellar, with about 16 wounds in his head,. and with various other injuries inflicted upon his body, Which was covered by several cwts. of coal. The chief witness called was Thos. Kershaw, the brother of the first and son of the second prisoue r i He said that on going home o n th e a ft er noon the 13th January, the prisoner said he found t. dead body of his father u p on th e hearth-stone, is the kitchen, and said that his "mother had a mi ° ne it," and that he had tak en th e 'b o d y i n t o th e ee' r and covered it with coals. The female prisolin who, by the coroner's jury was discharged, but who was ultimately apprehended on a warr 3 :,, issued by the magistrate, from the first denied ' L I knowledge of the murder, saying that she left th prisoner Thomas and the deceased, when the.. began to quarrel. But the evidence of witilt s ; both in court and before the coroner, showed .- of she must at least h"ave washed up from the floor l a the kitchen the blood that flowed - from the ° man's head. Witness next stated thocircumeta rices which led to the discovery of the old man's hodli;cl Several other members of the family &tau slight circumstances showing that for five O r s n d years the prisoner Thomas had not been of sound mend. The last important witness called was 110bert Fletcher Kershaw, the e l . es t son of the d e ceaan s r to whom the prisoner Thoma s fi rs t state d that had taken the body into the cellar. This witnes s Was the first person to give informati o n to tu e police. Amongst other thin g s thi s w it ne ss said .I . e substance that during the last 12 monthe the Pr:, soner Thomas had been constantly reading sn _tu s. , Bible, and elieved from reading the Books of X , r_ kiel and the Revelations of St. John, that tio ruin of Gog there predicted was now taking plac e ; and that the Gogites were peo ple who devot ed their whole time a n d a ll th e i r minds to study the injury of their nei g hb ours , but that he W,. a9 s ) stilled to be the grea t d e li verer . He (the Prie° np - S1 also believed that the deceased was the prineT man among the G og it es , and that he was COnSPiW I Z to have an imprope r i n t imacy w ith hi s e ld ee tclang' n ter, with the intention to charge that offerann ul)l,°him (Thomas), who therefore believed it 1514 duty to destroy that influence. He (the prisons., also believed const an tly th a t th e E mperors Of 11115 d sia and France intended to invade this country He also talked of going to America to see and other patriot_ ,s and of afterwards going to th i President of the United States, who believed' Kossutne would give him _an army with which he believed he was dest.ned to prevent an invasion of Evg'7.. and having done that; that he was with it to P oo sue the Gogites until he had thoroughly. rid earth of them. After the examination of this witness, Mr. 0 p end, Q. O. (who was with Mr. R. A. Cross, hale, for the pr osecu ti on , M r. O vens d e f en di n g the ait and Mr. Wigh am th e f ema l e p r i soner ) said he ' l o proposed to ca ll a me di ca l w it ness , w ho' had e the prisoner Thomas in Preston Gaol. „ so le Baron Martin sa id h e did no t s ee what i _m"b e s could be wanted. If th e l as t w it nes s was to b o o st lieved, and h e h a d g i ven hi s ev id ence in" a, Thor proper manner , th ere was no dou b t t h e ra w to Thomas was insane ; the th only question was, — he e female prisoner, and up t o that moms ter Judge) had not a word of evidence as MO"' upon his notes. oaring Some further evidence wa s th en given b er , wholly upon the conduct of the female on and subsequently the Judge said he was of spi n i there was no evidence against the woman. Mr. Overend.—She wiped up the blood..
