TRIAL OF DR. SMETHURST. SECOND DAY. (Before Lord Chief Baron Pollock.) The trial of Dr. Thomas Smethurst for the wilful murder of Isabella Bankes was proceeded with this morning. Mr. Sergeant Ballantine, Mr. Bodkin, Mr. Clerk, and Mr. Merryweather appeared for the prosecution ; and Mr. Sergeant Parry and Mr. Giffard defended the prisoner. The first witness called was Mr. William Easter, clerk of St. Mark's Church, Ken nington, who produced the book of marriages celebrated in that parish in 1828. lie showed an entry of a marriage between Thomas Smethurst and Mary Durham on the 10th of March, 1828. Mr. Alexander M'Crostie, cashier at the London and Westminster Bank, said the prisoner had kept an account with that bank for ten or twelve years. The entry in the book (the registry of marriages) is in the handwriting of the prisoner. Dr. Samuel Bird said—l am a surgeon , practising at Richmond, in partnership with Dr. Julius. I was formerly attached to the medical staff of Omer Pasha in the Crimea. I have had great experience in bowel diseases. I attended Miss Bankes. I found her suffering from vomit ing and purging. I examined further into her symptoms I found her pulse quick, she was not in a dangerous state. Dr. Smethurst was present whilst I examined her. I sug gested the same treatment pursued by Dr. Julius to be con tinued. I saw the vomit. It was green and apparently bilious. I saw her again on the following day but not alone, Dr. Smethurst was present. For the first two or three days there was not not much alteration in appearance. I then suggested that bismuth should be given. The motions con tained bile. There was no fever during the whole of the three days. When she vomited there was great straining. I found the medicines I prescribed had no effect in restrain ing the symptoms. I continued to see her for some time. On the 23d the motions began to assume a different appear ance. I saw blood in them. I told Dr. Smethurst that I thought it was now a proper time to give a more direct astringent, and I suggested the acetate of lead with opium. The prisoner said he thought it would act just as well without the opium. Both however, were administered. After talking the matter over again, nitrate of silver was administered. I prescribed a third of a grain he said that was rather a large dose, and thought it had better be a quarter. The nitrate was ad ministered, and the prisoner informed me that it occasioned a violent burning pain with increased vomiting and diarrhoea. It was afterwards determined to have additional medical advice, and when I saw Miss Bankes on the 28th she was very much worse. The fluctuations and changes were very decided. She was very much worse at one time than another. These changes would frequently occur in the course of the day. That iwas the remarkable circum stance I observed during the whole of the time I attended her. In the presence of the prisoner Miss Bankes said she should like some other medical man sent for. I only heard her say so once. It was five or six days before Dr. Todd was sent for. None of my remedies stopped the progress of the disease. About the 22d I came to the conclusion that her sufferings were to be attributed to some irritant of which we knew nothing. I had not formed that judgment till after I had oonsulted Dr Julius. I was in the house when the lady died. After death I saw her again. The symptoms exhibited during life are not reconcileable, in my judgment, to any known disease. Whilst I was in the East I had much experience in dysentery. There is a peculiar symptom of that disease only to be found in hot countries. I have never seen that disease. Miss Bankes' was certainly not that disease. She one day complained to me of a seneation similar to that of having a ball in her throat accompanied by a burning pain. On the 30th of April I obtained an evacua tion after she had taken the copper pills. I told the pri soner I wished to examine the evacuations. He then put some into a tumbler and gave it to me. I took it to the surgery and gave it to my assistant, who put it into a bottle and sealed it with my seal. When I obtained it I told the prisoner it was to be examined by the microscope to see if there were any puss globules which would indicate ulceration of the bowels. It was in consequence of a communication made relative to the examination that the prisoner was given into custody. When he was arrested, the bottles which seemed to have contained medicine, in the apartments, were taken by M'lntyre, the constable, but some bottles were left which apparently contained brandy. I was present at a portion of the post-mortem examination. Sergeant Ballantine—lf antimony and arsenic had been administered for some time in small doses would it produce the symptoms you have described ? Witness—Yes, it would. Sergeant Ballantine—Did you prescribe either arsenic or antimony ? Witness—No. In answer to further questions, the witness said Dr, Smethurst said the visits of Mrs. Smethurst's sister greatly excited her, and I then said it wouldbe better if she discon tinued her visits for a short time. Cross-examined by Sergeant Parry—l have never made a post mortem examination of a person dying from the effects of either arsenic or antimony. When I was first called I thought it was an extraordinary case, and I treated her for bilious diarrhoea. Dr. Julius had previously told me of the lady's symptoms. Dr. Smethurst answered all my questions with the utmost readiness. Dr. Julius and m yself partly formed our opinion from what he told us. At this point of the proceedings a juror was taken ill and had to be removed from the jury box. Dr. Todd, Dr. Copeland, and Mr. Gibson, the surgeon of Newgate, left the court by direction of the learned judge to render their assistance, and for an hour the sitting was suspended. During that time the Lord Chief Baron occupied himself in searching through a number of law books for a precedent, but while his lordship was so engaged Dr. Todd and Mr. Gib s on came and informed him that the juror was certainly not in a condition to go on. The Lord-Chief Baron, accompanied by the medical gentle men, then left the court to visit the juror, whose name was Thomas Instono. After a few minutes' absence the Lord Chief Baron returned to his seat on the bench, and the oath having been administered to Dr. Copeland, Dr. Todd, and Mr. Gibson, His Lordship, addressing Dr. Copeland, said—Dr. Cope land, have you seen Thomas Instone ? Dr. Copeland—l have. The Lord Chief Baron—ls he in a condition to discharge the duty of a juryman ? Dr. Copelandlle is totally unfit. Lord Chief Baron—Do you think it would be dangerous for him to be put in the box and to serve on a jury in a case that will ino , t certainlynot conclude before to-morrow ? Dr. Copeland—lt would decidedly be injurious to his health. Lord Chief Baron—But his life ? Dr. Copeland—l cannot say dangerous to his life. Lord Chief Baron--Do you think he is totally unfit to serve ? Dr. Copeland—Quite so. Lord Chief Baron--How long do you think he will re main so ? Dr. Copeland—Certainly, for two or three days. Dr. Todd, of King's College, was next sworn. Lord Chief Baron—Dr. Todd, you have seen Thomas Instone, do you think his in a fit state to discharge the duty of juryman ? Dr. Todd—Certainly not. iiin L e ld Chief Baron—D o you th i nk he will be fit in a short is D ds r u . b T if o ui dd . —Not to-day. Th e t i me w h en he would be so Lord Chief Baron —Ts there any probability of its being so to- day. Dr. Todd—Not to-day, certainly. Lord Chief Baron —Would it be dangerous to his health and life to do so ? Dr. Todd—l think it would. Mr. Gibson, surgeon of Newgate, was then sworn. Lord Chief Baron—You, Mr. Gibson, have seen Thomas Instone. You have been in attendance on him for half an holm Mr. Gibson—l have. Lord Chief Baron—Do you think he is in a condition to discharge the duty of a juryman. Mr. Gi bson —Certainly not. Lord Chief Baron —Do you think he would be able to do so to-morrow. Mr. Gibson —I should think it would be impossible for him to do so even to-morrow. Lord Chief Baron —You think it would be dangerous to his life and health for him to do so? Mr. Gibson —Highly dangerous. Lord Chief Baron— Gentlemen of the Jury, after this testimony I think it is my duty to discharge you, and not t o keep you assembled. We cannot go on with the trial immediately, or do I think it advisable to do so to-morrow, as it certainly would not terminate that day, and the con sequence would be that you would have to be kept in cus tody over Sunday, and think it would be better to re-com mence on Monday. The jury then quitted the box. Hi s Lordship continued—l think we had better fix upon a time for the proceeding of the trial. Mr. Sergeant Ball antine—Perhaps, my lord, you will fix a remote day for the trial. We have a number of medi cal gentlemen present to-day at great inconvenience to themselves, and it certainly would be out of their power to attend next Monday. Lord Chief Baron—What say you, brother Parry ? Mr. Sergeant Parry—l have consulted my client, and he is extremely anxious his trial should proceed. Mr. Sergeant Ballantine—Any Monday would be con venient after next Monday. The Lord Chief Baron—Then I must consult my brother judges. I shall adjourn th e tr i al sine die. Mr Sergeant Parry—l think if the trial is postponed. it ought to be so until the next session. I know my client is veryo that. against such an arrangement, yet I will assen t t Sergeant Ballantine--I am ready to concur in lord suc h an arrangement as that. Perhap s , m y 3 ir. much there would be no objection to taking it the first d ay of the next session. The Lord Chief Baron—l can see no objection. to such a course, The trial of the prisoner was then postponed until Mon day, the 15th of August. The juryman Instone, it was stated in ccrurt, was labour ing under complete nervous prostration. He is not the same person who wished to be excused yeNterday from his prejudice against the prisoner. The jury were last night lodged under lock and key at the London Coffeehouse, Ludgate-hill, and early this morning Mr. Harker, the chief usher of the court took them for a walk, prior to the commencement of the, day's preceedings, in the Temple-gardens. Some medical gentle men present said perhaps the state of the Thames had something to do with the juryman's illneti s. We hope Mr. Harker will give the next jury a more salubrious walk before taking them into court. THIS DAY. (Continued front The Sun of Yesterday.) Miss Louisa Bankes livo at 10, Langhart-villas, Maida-hill. I saw my sister after her death ; the person pointed out to me was my sister. Her age was 43, and she was unmarried. We did not live together. 1 recollect her going to live at a boarding-house, No. 4, Rifle-terrace, Bayswater, in the autumn of last year. I recollect her leaving that house and going into a boarding-house in Kil dare-terrace in the same neighbourhood. I was in the habit of seeing her at both places. Ido not know that she had a disposition to relaxation of the bowels. When I visited her at Kildare-terrace, I was introduced by her to Dr. Smethurst. She was in a very good state of health at that time. Some time after, I met her with Dr. Smethurst in Kensington-gardens, and the deceased left him and came and spoke to me. I saw her the even ing before she left Kildare-terrace, but I do not know the date. I did not hear from her again until I received a letter from her en the 9th of February, 1859, and from that date until the 19th of April I received letters from her. I re ceived this letter, signed "T. Smethurst." I have received similar letters from Smethurst, and have spoken to him afterwards about some of them. The letter was then read : " Strictly private and confidential. "Dear Miss Bankes,—Your dear sister Isabella wishes we to request the favour of your calling upon her as early as convenient, as she is really . very ill and desirous to see you. She also wishes me to say that you will greatly oblige by coming alone, and ask for Dr. and Mrs. Smet hurst ; say that you have called to see your sister, and that you will breathe not a word of the contents of this note to any one. She further wishes me to say that she cannot ask you to remain ; she simply solicits seeing you for the present. The rail from the Waterloo-station about every half-hour, and Richmond from the White Horso-cellars, Piccadilly. " I remain, dear Miss Bankes, yours faithfully, " THOMAS SMETHURST. " 10, Alma-villas, Richmond-hill, April 18, 1859." I went down there and arrived between two and three o'clock. I saw Dr. Smethurst 'before I saw my sister. She was very ill, and much changed front the time I had seen her last. I remained there some hours, but not in the room all the time. I was never alone with her. I did not ex press a wish to be alone with her. Ido not think she gave me any account of the nature of her illness. She was not able to tell me. Dr. Smethurst said she had been suffering from sickness and diarrhoea. I have a relative, Mr. Lane, of St. George's Hospital, and I proposed to Dr. Smethurst that he should come and see her; but he said he had better not, for my sister did not wish it. That was in her pre sence. Dr. Smethurst was once out of the room for two or three minutes, and then I was alone with her. While he was in the room he said lie did not think the money she had received under her father's will was as much as she ought to have had. I left her about five o'clock. She expressed a wish that I should come soon and see her, and I promised to do so. While I was there I noticed some tapioca in a cup in the cupboard. My sister said she did not like it be cause it had a disagreeable taste. She said she should like me to prepare some for her, and I said I would do so. I did not do so becaise Dr. Smethurst said the milk had not come. I afterwards offered to make some, and he said it would interfere with the landlady. I proposed to get some isinglass, but he did not seem to wish it, though he said nothing. She said that he was very kind, and that he watched her so tenderly that she was quite happy. They occupied one bedroom, but I made no remark about it. She said if I would wait a little and be quiet it would be all right. I left, and got a letter from him before I went again. The following is the letter : .___ "My dear Miss Bankei,—We are in receipt of yours of yesterday's date, for which we are greatly obliged. After your departure dear Bella had a very bad evening and night, and that purely from the excitement of seeing you and the fatigue consequent thereon. Vomiting and sickness set in at a fearful rate, which of course prostrated her greatly. Her doctor, therefore, at once forbade any visitors for the present, or he would not be responsible for the effects at tendant thereon. Last night was a good one, but lam sorry to say a trying one. She is now, however, again better, and I am happy to say recovery is really expected by 1311. I will write again shortly. Dearest Bella sends her kindest love, and, with kindest regards, believe me yours faithfully. " THOMAS SMETHURST. " 10, Alma-villas, April 21, 1859." I had written to my sister, addressed to Dr. Smethurst. I received that letter, and in consequence did not go down. Subsequently I received this letter : "My dear Miss Bankes,—Bella's dearest love and best thanks for your kind attention, in which I cordially unite. She has not yet got over the emotion of meeting you, poor dear, and is still looking forward to a very early interview ; indeed, she would like to name Monday next for your taking a chop with me, but I think it would be more desirable to say the middle of next week, - for the doctors even this morning, have prohibited anything of a nature which might try her very weak powers, since it would be impossible to bear up against shocks to the nervous system, and on these grounds alone she is ordered to keep her room, in order to treasure her health. The aspect pf affairs is favourable if great care be observed, and we three doctors have every, hope of a successful termination. I shall not fail to call for the jelly. I purchased some very beautiful yesterday, and dearest Bella has partaken of two or three glasses of it, and I think, with benefit. Dearest Bella says she would rather not see uncle Lane; however, we will talk this matter over at our next meeting. With every kind wish, in which dearest Bell unites, believe me yours faithfully, THOMAS SMETHURST. " April 23, 1859." I still did not go down, and received the following letter : " My dear Miss Banker,—Dearest Bella requests me to thank you kindly for the jelly; poor thing, she tries her very best to eat it. It is, however, I imagine, too sweet for her taste, especially as now, with constant nausea, sometimes it is retained on the stomach, at others it is speedily vomited. I obtained some from town, which is not so sweet, but this she puts aside for yours. I very much regret tb say that she has not once properly rallied since seeing you. Her nervous energy must be very low indeed, or this would not have happened. Still we have every hope of a good recovery. To-day I have insisted ou having a consultation with Dr. Todd, of King's College Hospital, the first physician of the day, with her two regu lar medical attendants, who are also the first doetors in this town. She is still ordered quietude, and all visitors to be excluded for the present; therefore dearest Bella begs of you to wait a.little longer than was anticipated before call mg on her. As soon as I have got Dr. Todd's opinion I will send pau a few lines on the subject. With our united love, believe me yours faithfully, • 14 11:LOMAS SIIETHURST." [ wrote a letter to him, and in reply received the folloWing Letter : "My dear Miss Bankes,—We saw Dr. Todd, from Lou daily don, last evening as late as 10 o'clock, in consultation with Dr. Julius, of Richmond, our dear Bella'sattendant. He not only acquiesced in what is beingdone, medical b u t recommends a perseverance in the treatment with ' some slight addition of his own prescribing, and entertains pro bable hopes, like the rest of us. The bilious vomiillg t en ti re ly arrested, but sickness still prevails to a great e ex • are tent, with occasional violent retchings, which almost shake k her very life out of her, and the bowels continue to act e ight or ten times in the 24 hours, spite of all we can do. This action is very different from what is usually called diarrhoea, and is the result of impaired bowels and congested liver, which must have existed for a very long period. I am Berry to say there is no appetite, the only thing which raises a fear in my mind, for how nutrition is to be obtained equal to the loss of strength under the circumstances does, I confess somewhat puzzle me. Nevertheless, there are still good and improving points from which we trust to build our hopes upon. I much regret the state of the case will not yet admit of even your seeing her for the present, since any or the least anxiety only tends to debilitate her nervous system. We both anticipate very shortly seeing you here. Dearest Bella sends her kind love and best wishes in which I beg to join, and believe me yours very faithfully, "T. SMETHURST. " April 29, 1859 The next letter I received was as follows : "Dearest Miss Bankes,—ln reply to your favour of yes terday's date, I am exceedingly sorry to say dear Bell has passed a wretchedly bad night; passed 15 motions in the 24 hours, and of a very bad description. There is now so much blood in the stools, and besides which there is an entire want of appetite, consequently I have a great dread for the result. She read your kind letter, and agrees with me that it will be better that you should be near to us, so 'that if you will run down as early as convenient you can then tale a room or rooms near at hand. It will indeed be a source of comfort to me to have you with us. I much re gret there is no accommodation in this house for you, as we occupy all there is to let, and have not room enough for ourselves. Dearest Bella sends her kindest love, and, with every good wish believe me yours faithf ull y , " April, 30, 1859." T. SMETHURST. I received that letter on Saturday and went down on Sunday. I found my sister very weak indeed much weaker than I had previously seen her, and scarcely able to speak. I re mained with her ten minutes and then went downstairs. Dr. Smethurst was present the whole time. I brought some soup with me, and he said it was too strong: He took some of it and put some hot water to it, and then took it outside the door and said he would cool it. He brought it in again in about a mi nute, and gave the it but b decease a ht it s qua ntity of it in a teasp oon • took roug up directly. I took her some arrowroot after the soup, and Dr. Smethurst gave it to her. He got it from outside the door, the same place he had taken the soup to. She took a spoonful of arrowroot, and became sick again and retched very violently when she threw it up. A second attempt was,made to induce her would the soup, and with the same result. Dr. Smethurst not let me remain with my sister as she was too ill Todd's betr it. He said she was much metewsince taking Dr. pills. The next day he sent to town to get some medicine, and when I brought it down he said he had changed the treatment and would not give it to her. He did not know the police had been com municated with, but they were in the housd. Smethurst wa s greatly agitated, and said that Dr. Julius had accused him of poisoning my sister. After this I gave her some arrowroot, and she did not vomit it. A nurse had been sent for, and was with her at that time. I gave her arrow root several times, and she never did on any one occasion vomit it. She took food and arrowroot from me during the e ight, and was perfectly sensible, and she had no return o f t h e r etching. She appeared better, and on the Tuesday I gave her some brandy and water, and after that she sank into a state of unconsciousness, and I never saw ber again a live. She died that day. Cross-examined by Sergeant Parry—On hiturn from arrest Dr. Smethurst was much agitated ; he said Dr. Julius had been saying be had poisoned my sister. He kissed my sister when he went into her room. When he was away some medicine came. I never saw the nurse give my sister any medicine. I heard my sister retching when the nurse was with her. Dr. Smethurst never afterwards interfered with the administration of medicine. In ray first visit I don't recollect my s ister saying he, meaning Dr. Smethurst, is so kind to me that it is quite a treasure to be his. I don't recollect her latterusingthead occasional worasdsio.nal heard her say he was very kind. My sister bilious attacks. I recollect her going to Dr. Bartlett for bilious attack. I recollect her being sick on several occa sions when riding in a carriage., She was sick whilst riding in Dr. Jackson's carnage. I remember telling Dr. Smet hurst that I thought my sister very fragile. Dr. Hoffman also attended my sister at Ramsgate. It is about three or four years since my sister resided with me. My father did die of diarrhoea. I cannot say it was diarrhoea, it was said to be a complication of diseases. When I first went to Richmond I dined with Dr. Smethurst. Many members of our family suffer from frequent bilious attacks. My uncle died from dropsy. He never suffered from jaundice. One of my sisters died of consumption. There is a contingency that my sister would come into a large sum of money had she lived. It was to the survivor of myself and sister. Re-examined by Sergeant Ballantine—The bilious attacks I have spoken to were only occasional—merely for a day or so. By the Lord Chief Baron—l never had any conversation with my sister relative to her position with Dr. Smethurst. Mr. Frederick Senior examined by Mr. Bodkin—l am a solicitor, residing at Richmond. The prisoner called at my office in April. He was a stranger to me. He called on me, he said, to see whether I would come up the hill, and draw up a will for a lady. I said, "Yes, I'll come directly," He said, "No, not to-day, to-morrow. The lady was too ill that afternoon." He showed me the paper now put into my hand. He said, " This is what the will will be. ' On the Sunday morning, he called on me and said he must trouble me to come, as the lady had passed a very bad night. He told me to come about ten in the morning. The medical man came at half-past and he wished all over by that. I said I should like a medical man to be present as the lady was so ill. [le said, there's no necessity for that, as the lady was suffering from vomiting and diarrhoea, but was perfectly sensible. I was showninto the parlour. He said he thought he ought to tell me before I went up stairs ' that although he was livi ng w ith th e l a d y t h ey were not man and wife. I then went upstairs into the bed-room. Smethurst went in first. Miss Bankes was in bed. He said, pointing to me, " My dear, this is the gentleman who has come to make your will." She bowed, and then handed me the same paper the prisoner had shown me on the Saturday. I asked if the paper contained her wishes, and she replied "Yes." I read it over to her, and asked her if it was correct. She said, " Yes ; but she wished to leave a brooch to a friend " I then left the room with the in structions. The paper now put into my hand is the w ill. The prisoner was with me all the time I was drawing it up in the room below. I asked him to get a witness, and he said he would get the landlady's daughter, if she would do. He said he supposed she need not be told it was .a will. r said, "Yes, she must ;" and he replied, "Oh, very well." He then left the room, and in a short time returned with the young woman. I said to her, " This lady wishes you and Ito witness her sign this paper." Dr. Smethurst said you have not told her it is a will. I then held up the paper and said to the lady, "Is this your will ?" She replied, "It is," and it was then executed. I then left the room, and Dr. Smethurst accompanied me down to the parlour.' I advised him to have it executed again on the Monday, but I never was sent for again. The will was then read, by which the deceased left all her property to her dear and beloved friend, Thomas Smet hurst, for his own use absolutely. Cross-examined—I am certain the lady had a thorough knowledge of all that was done. I read the will over to her slowly, and then asked if all was correct, and she replied, " Yes, it is." Miss Bankes was recalled, and Treoved the draft of the will to be in her sister's handwriting, Dr. Julius was th en called anal gave similar evidence to what has already appeared in Vie Sun.
