CORONERS' INQUEST ON JOHN LEE S OLDt-I MONDAY It;VINING, SEPT. 27. [EvIDENCE CONTINUED.] William Whittaker- , --I ant a cotton-spinner in Oldham. I saw John Lees several times after the 16th, and observed no t hinc r the matter with hint. %V;Maui Harrison-1 ant a cOtton-spinner in Oldham. I saw John Lees running on the 16111 to join a company with whom he went to the meeting . . I did not see bins again till dye days before he died, when I heard be was very poorly, and I went to see him. I found hint in the kitchen part with a tact; li,ke a cap. He told are he was at the battle of Water bor, hut'never in such danger as there ; at Waterloo there eras matt to man, but there it was downright murder. Samuel Davenport was p,resent: He told me nothing that Ir had done. He told me what was done to him. He showed me nothing; be could not, he_was so weak. . By Mr, Harmer—The people all came as quiet- as if in a chapel or church. When every township arrived with their banners, those on the ground gave a shout.; that was the only noise. The constables were six deep at the lower side of the hustings. I was about 8 yards on the other side. Mr. Hunt 'received applause with his hat. He then said, he was very glad the meeting was put off fur one week; he was glad to see people arrive peaceably and quietly. He said, if any per son attempted disturbance for a green bag, to put him down , and keep hint down till the meeting was over. (The Coroner now, as on fer Mer occasions, said they were not deaf, and the witness need riot speak so load.)' The first .1 saw of the sol diers sat upon his horse most like a monkey, whether drunk or not I cannot say, About a minute before the soldiers cause, there was a shout at something said upon the stage. The soldiers cAtue at a real gallop. They cut away. The people cried out " Hare. mercy, 0 have mercy. 1 was squeezed, I thought to death. It would have been the nicest sight that ever was seen, if it had not been for them. We all said so as we came home. When they cried " Mercy," the soldiers said, " you, will you conic again ?" I heard that hundreds of sillies: - I did MY best to make my escape. I saw three persons down, and there was ,whiz, striking hack_. wards amid forwards. I - threw myself down on my face ; i was ilorritinted if they cut, it should be my ,hottuuh—(Niuch. la+o titer.) Cormier—Yon act as well as speak. Witness-,-I am real Lancashire blunt, Sir. Whenever siify . erWd, " Mercy," they said, " what brought you here?" - 'By the Cormfer—The soldiers' cut at me, but they 'missed.. I saw persons emit, in every street in Manchester that I was in afterwards. Well,' BIT, when you speak out of reason, I can give you on answer rfor you ask whether toe palisades were Winds. or a qoarter of a - mile front the hustings.—Well, 1 ask Your ? I suppose about 50 yards.—You were then about 50 yards ofF, MI% Hunt - came? No, Sir, von contradict yourself; I was then only 8 yards from the liostisigs ; but after the soldiers LI:lino, 1 was pressed back to the palisades. I saw a sword held by the first man came down, hut I did not see "his'dress. lie came into the crowd on gallop. He was fuddled reckon.. 1 can't.' tell where that 1.1).ttl was whets the ,soldiers were cut hug. I did not tenser in'y eve swim one person ; 1 could 'not, for I looked for my lice. I can't tell what became of him. I can't tell - how • !natty -minutes' the other soldiers were getting up to him ; thy}- Weft! 00 yards ,or. so -behind, and came at a gallop. Sir, yen put • many questions which are very tfonblesonte, and, I think, cannot. be answered. I am sure 1 speak very calmly. Cot oner— , There may be a difference - of opinion. I never hail the honopr of seeing.you before, but I think you speak hoist erously. Witness—l speak the. hest.l can, according to truth. lam no scholar. Coroner—Tots say they , were as peaceable as in church.— Did vim ever hear shootings in church' Witness-I did, when they strike tip to the-singing. I don't know how many v,-omen were in r. Humes carriage, tlfere'were sd many women. I saw' Mrs. Fyides.—What lihe a woman was she? The most beautiful woman that ever 1 saw in my life.—What was her age ? I thought her middle age.—Where was she ? Ilion the stage. You call the hus tines the stage ? It was -what the Merry Andrews call a stage. Yogwould bather any one.—Anil Mr. Hunt was the Merry Andr‘wl -- No; we were all Merry, iti hopes' of better times. I heard of no Iliot Act being . read on that ground, Sir, if you come to that vinci (doing). I did not see John Lees cat upon that said ground. I: saw plenty of - constables striking. Cor:iner—Tolin Lees ? . _ • . 'f'oroeer--4 said striking king. • ''- Wi!ness--1 beg your pardon. I did not- bear that. The coastahlea struck as to a tune. t did nut seer hint struck. There.were some On the .ground when I came, and I was about an hour there before Mr. Hunt came. The soldiers began to cut...as - sbon •as they got past the constables ; they knew the plot. I expect. They all began together. When the soldiers began cutting anti slaying, the constables began o'seize at the colours; the tune was struck tip. The only notice was ctiftiag' With' their swords'. They 'knew the combination. I . !heard of one of the colours being saved ; that is ;01 I .have heard of. - The constables made at them; - but those who held them stitch very fag,. eor•tirrey were beau- : tifut things. We left. them, ; yes, for life is sweeter titan any colours. I did not seeavbat became of Mr. Hunt. There might be twenty or thirty upon the stage. I saw none with beards that I knew about the hustings. • I saw - them after, .mixed with the Yeomanry in the town, and all rejoicing as much as they could. Do yon know Nadin ? No; and I never wish to know hint. Mr. John Sbuttleworth—Lam 'a cotton and twist dealer, itt Manchester. On the morning of the stub, illtuut 11, I saw several' of the country parties past the Exchange, carrying banners, - and twitching in the best sort of order. in w hi c h l arge holies could go when they bad to go any distanco. They were 2,3, 4, and ep to 7 abreast. They were ntostl` linked together Ivy the arms ; seeing this, I went to she ground ; x tt . doultle cordon of special constables were arranged from ten's house intu the ,crowd towards the hustings; they might teach to the hustings. but I coulit 'not see ; 1 Mole a stamen near the top of Windmill-strect,,witieb commanded a view of I he area ; I continued t here, perhaps, better than an hour, :sod aMtl several parties arrive front thesonntry, who were't. recei4d with huzzne and cheer's; -- Whtweit Was-understood that Mr. litt4 was coming, I approached -within 10 or 15 reeds trf the stage ; I saw a zompany of the Btlth mavels into Dickenseu-street , the' Meeting cheered them ; a few minutes atter, the 'Manchester cavalry niarebeil into the gi mind round Cooper's-cottage. Mr. Hunt had arrived then. The civalry were in very great coot - what, but. in a moment or two formed opposite to and near the house where the Magistrates were, and facing: the hustings: conceiving that they meant to charge,. I got into the rear : the cavalry cheered, brandishing their swords, and: frout a raised mount within 10 yards of them I observed consideruble bustle, and some speaking. The hustle appeared among the Special ceestables. .The special constables,. where there wits no particular crowding, fell back immediately after the Velllllilllll began to flourish with their Swords. I should think that 50 yards from the hostinge.--, The mornent-the•way was cleared, sorbet hing was said to the • Yeomanry, and they gut front -line i n to file, and galloped isle, the crowd. Great disorder appeared evident amongst the special constables. I watched them until they • got to thi; hustings, and then turned and went off thestound throng Mosier street. There I met some horse talivs, I tinder:stool part of the 15th, and of the Cheshire Yeomanry. I saw them go into the field by the corner of Bnetou's house. They went at a sharp rate, very quickly, I think a gallop. I saw severed Magistrates in Mr. Ruaton's'house. They were there atom it half-past li, and I saw them at intervals to the nutmeat ti:e Yeomanry charged. I recognized Mr. Ethelstoue, a clergy:. man; Mr. Hay, a clergyman ; Mr. Norris, a stipendiary Mn. gi,ttrate ; and Mr. Fletcher, commonly called Colonel Fletcher ; and others whom I did not know • particularly, ut,al therefore dou r zt like to swear. I heard them say niithing. saw them coming out and speaking to persons abut't doors, who appeared to be special constables. I ar.t sure: o f ail doing so, exceet Nit. flay, whom I did out notice. tartly did not hear any Riot Act read, and saw nothing it. I ant sere no direction was given to disperse. 'l'lic k ei t t Icing I heard or saw was Mr. Heist still addressing the peo ple. I was about one hundred yards from the hustings, and twenty from Mr. Buxton's house then. When the Cavalry rushed into the crowd, it was about half-past • one.— UpOti the dicky of M r. Hunt's carriage I.think there was a feniale. In all I slanild suppose there were h ur a, I noticed wily one \velum, I can't say whether thete were More or not. It might be . 5 or 6 minutes.befors Nre.°l - 1-ant from his cArria , •e on the hustings. It was not exceeding 15 minutes after that when the cavalry charged. No riot, tumult, or disorder, not the slightest, had taken place. Wind :nill-street was very much crowded. Where I stood was itot so crowded, because a large posse of Special constables were stationed I here, among whom I stood. It was not more titan two or three minutes after I left Windmill-street that the cavalry charged. 7 -What do you call a charge ? Galloping with drawn swords among the people, and cutting them.=-Then you sawthe soldiers cutting ? From the manner in which they tlaurished their swards and let them fall, I have no doubt of it. I was not perhaps so much as 50 yards from•t hem. The swords appeared to me to have struck. There was a tremen dons uproar, it would lie impossible almost to have heard a cannon; I heard no particular person complaining. - That noise seemed the expression of alarm and surprise from all ports of the meeting. The cavalry were led on by two or three trumpeters. The only person I recognized was.l\lr. Burley. I saw him 'immediately 'before the charge. I don't know _ . wh . at he Is I believe hint to be an oilict:r. I know many of them; but I diet not recognize then. I recognized him . , be cause I saw him in conversation before Mr. Buxton's horse. I did not hear who gave command. I should have thought there were 100 Yeomen ; but I have heard since. there were only sixty. There were no more cavalry when they moved from Buxton's house. As soon as they got out of facings into file, they went into gallop. I heard no notice given, and if there had been any, I think I should have beard it.' They appeared to he retarded by the crowd. There appeared a struggling effort to get to the hustings, the crowd was so dense. Their line was soon broken, an or 60 -yards from the hustings. The breaking seemed to have been occasioned by the first being stopped by the crowd, while those behind en deavoured to get into the heart of their companions; they seemed a circular mass rather than a line of • soldiers. In that confused state they got up to the•hustings. The Special Constables, who occupied ground not much crowded, opened a way for the Yeomanry. The Yeomanry seemed to wish to go by the cordon, but when they got into the crowd, they got confused as I have , stated. It was very ,easy for any person to have gone to the hustings, between the two cords of con stables: I saw persons walking there op to two minutes be fore the charge. I saw Mr. Nadin repeatedly on the ground, without the crowd, and in the body of the Meeting.—Did you see bins when the charge was Made, as you call it'? I did not.—What caused the Calry to act as they did ? God koows ; I cannot tell.' 'Why did they not act sooner or later ? That, is best known to" themselves, I know riot.—You saw no reason ? No, I did not. I did not see con stables striking whit their truncheons. The colours were not taken When I left the ground, not tili the hustings were sur rounded by the cavalry. Not a stone was thrown as the ca valry approached the hustings. I saw no stick thrown or used. - - , I did not hear any firearms. I 'saw in the hands of the people common walking sticks, and nothing else. It did not appear to me that more than one or two in ten had even a walking stick, There was nothing unusual in their appear ance.—That is your opinion ? I ,observe that weavers and others who come front the contatrphare sticks-in that way.— , Do you mean on all occasions ?. Clenerally,and when they tra vel. I saw the ground - after it' was cleared. I had pasted over it in the morning about nine. At three o'clock the ground appeared very much tramplcd,''and in some glees stained wills blood. I observed no, difference in respect to. sticks or stones being on the ground. By. Mr..Hatmer—l never spoke to Mr. Hunt before,; nor saw Mtn but' once speaking at a pnbl!e. meeting in London, and agaio - aas•tiog through Manchester. I had nothing to do. with the arrangements of Mr. flout. I.saw many females, Who condiicted themselves roost properly, I saw no ditposi , tion to riot or break the peace; not the slightest. 1 think it scarcely possible that such a mos'enient as au attempt to read the Riot :Set could be made without observing it. By the c oroner—l was told that a female carried a flag hi passing the Exchange.- ‘Vhen'lsaid that they behaved pro perly, I meant that they were peaceable and tranquil; as to their carrying flags, that is another question. 'They appeared to OW to have put on their best clothes. I think I saw one female holding a little flag on the hustings. From half-past eleven till my leaving the crowd, 1 think I must have known it, it the Riot Act had been read. I left the ground about half-past I; the cavalry charged a few minutes before. Ido norliut it absoluttiy, but about. It was before 2 when I got halite, and I had guile more than a mile the way I went. • I beard none of the populace menacing or threatening; on the contrary, Miatever ctinversiition4l overheard among thine who took an interest in the meeting, it was an interchange'of exhortations to keep peaceable and tranquil. I was very aluele strack with many remarks I heard of that kind. - • • Joseph Chadwick, a constable, was called to give evidence. A Juror remarked that be saw him' in Court all day. He was sworn and examiued. 1 ant a hatter in Oldham. I was present when Mr. Cox opened the hotly. James (legs was there at the time„.„Atr. Lox made a lung incision, to see if he died of a wound its his side. . Mr. Harmer objected that this was not evidence. Itlr. Coroner said it was. • Mr. Cox said," I see the cause of his death." James Clegs asked what it was. He said it was frdniiujuries he received. That was all - I heard. Mr.. Cox said the cut on the elbow was not the cause of his death. He did not say it was from outward injuries he died. He, said that if blood- had .been taken flow him, he might probably have recovered ; but he did not say he would.—[This' was in answer to a queitiOn in these terms by the Coroner.] By a Juror—l don't recollect any message being sent doiin to the parents. By Mr. Harmer—l have no recollection. of that. - I did not hear it, [A warm discussion here arose respecting:the -ob ject of this witness in coining to give evidence.] Mr. Cox said he saw the cause of his death when he-saw the cavity *Of hisbrcast • he said he died of injuries he received; he did not say that blinding would have preseved his life. By a Juror=Tbe impressio,cupon my mind was, that,the death was frdm pressure, hut t rot from any external liinises. Mr. Harmer stated, that On Saturday he had not been aware that Mr. Bastietti had seen the Meeting, and wished him now to be examined to that, as he bad seen it frowa house near Mr. Buxton's. • Mr. Basnett,-Were you in court - , this day ?—Not till !this moment. r was at the Meeting on the 16th, about and saw Mr. Hunt arrive in an open carriage. I saw the Cavalry advance, and proceed towards the hustings. Great con fusion took place, and then the Cavalry surrounded the hust ings. I heard cries of " Murder," and " Save us." I saw several fall opposite to the house where I was, in Windmill 4trect, about 2(10 yards. off.. I was' o tuna' shocked, that etired into a back room; and desired the women who were me to do so too, afraid that their screams might bring persons to the door. I remained the?s about an hour. I went' home as soon as I couldwith safety. That was about a pat ter past two. The house belonged to a woman, Ltbink, •of the name of Croft. The whole of Windmill-street fronts ..thr gruund. I saw a woman fall about the centre of the held. She was struck by a Manchester Yeoman, by his dress. I was miter out of the house. I saw the special constables striking see eral blows. By Mr. Ilarnver---I was there probably TO minutes before Mr, Hoot art ived. The people appeared perfectly peaceable a nd'quiet, till the cavalry charged. Mr, William Norris Buckley-. 1 am a Manchester trades man. I have my dwelling-house in Derby. I saw parties coning on the WV). Coroner—What is the gist of his evidence ? Mt.. Partner--I understand he can speak to the whole pro eeediogs of the 16th. Cotilner,j-4-10 knows nothing of John Lees ? Mr. tlariner—No; but it seems scarcely necessary for me to state, that if the attack was "made without necessity—if there Wtss so riot nor disturbance, all concerned, whether M;.gistratt's, Soldiers, or Constables, were guilty as principals, if present. The wittlY's then stated the colours, the inscriptions, and the ulusie wtiich bare been so often mentioned. One party was headed 14y an old .woman with a reddish gown, a black bonnet, and a sprig of laurel in it. She said nothing that I heard. I saw several men with laurels. 1 observed no sticks. There were that,. or four parties that I saw. I stoodiron the steps of St. Peter's!chnreh, and saw them all distinctly. The Quakers'-chapel wits nearly in a line with the hustings. I went afterwards into the body of the meeting. I heard many speak of the peac•eableness of the meeting, and say they had no fear of the meeting g! , ing Off (pia. 'I heard that the sol diers.had been nmying in Pickford's-yard, and I went to see them. I saw the 'Yeomanry Cavalry load their pistols. I saw them then told Of, tight and left. I think I saw about tiO loail their pistols : j ail that were in Portland-street. I went again to St. Petee-ebureb. A friend, Mr. John Moon , was with me. Ily the time I gut there, I sa v Mr. Huntbaj ar rived. lweat tllendown opposite Mount-street. I saw Mr. Hunt then take utr his hat, and commence ~ dokessing the ',letting. I hard a general cry of " Thy soldiers ate coming. " Soon after they unfortunately made their ap pearmice. They were the Manchester Yeomanry Cavalry. Two trumpeters appeared first - . I thought them so, be cause they rode piebald horses. Shortly after- the rest mailed up, and matte a great"confusion. They went at a gallop, Tith drawn swords. I observed they li i , u c l e i t e lng. dremarkably rule. 'They passed betwixt use and Mount street. They were abont 3 yards from me. I began to run towards the Quakes' Nlecting, with intention of lea vin the 'Tit% thinht • struck WV that I *amid be as ,a iu theQUakers' , rard. I went into it. When I got tileie,."SZs - : lance of 60 yards - , I saw the Yeomanry brandishing their swords. There was a hurrah by the mob or meeting. Tb. YeoManry, brandished their swords aild dashed on. I rrmain*,, ed in that situation until, there was a complete dispersion. That took place in about 5 minutes or less. The people rats in such a body, that they could not get past, and in that state they were overtaken by the Yeomanry, and struck, I think by the flat side of the swords ; this was between the school,' and the Quakers' Meetinz,, where some logs of wood lay, and: obstructed the way. I beard the report of a pistol, and look i lig whence it caste, I -saw 2 or 3 Yeomanry in the yard, and .cutting as they, passed those who, like myself, took shelter in tilt yard : 'Should' think the report had been 30. or 40 yar4S" halt,' me towards Deansgate: I can't say who fired it; anti from the report I should suppose it was not loaded : I heard! heal only one report : I thought it was time to be off: I ran across the yard, and jumped over Site wall on the other side : I saar• the Yeomanry cat s.or 6: they were laying about them.--Were they laying upon them ? 11)(1 struck. but whether they cut I did not see, for I was too anxious for my own safety to look.- Were you afraid they would cut you ? I certainly seas.—Why ? Because they were indiscriminate ; and if I had not, been, alarmed by the pistol, and seen the Yeomanly, I believe I should hare-beetacut down before ',observed the Yearemory. knew.none ofthem in the yard. At Mount-street, I lains. Mr. R. -Sharp, Mr. Whitlowon attorney, Mr. James Moon, and others of the Yenrnanry. I believe they were, privates. They were airiong, those whom I saw look pale. Mr Fox was one of the, Yeomanry who were striking under the watt. fitter jnmpirte ,over the wall, I found myself very awkwardly situated, for L found some of the Yeomanry in Dickenson-street. I felt - 0 4 prehensive of my personal safety—Yon might feel fear where 'no fear was; did any person offer you violence? No, -but it was impossible not to he afraid after what I had seen. Those in Dickenson-street struck down a man on a crotch, Ile fell, but whether struck with the flat or edge, of a sword. I can't to!. The man was lame, and supported on a crutch in one hand, and a staff in the other. I saw - no appearance of a Riot Act being read. I was notraware twit any Magis trates were on the ground; I had no quarrel with any of the Yeomanry; hut. I was afraid, from the manner in which they came up, that they meant violently. to disperse the Meeting. L saw the constables-in a line at Buxton's house.—l can't Mimi/ you through your windings • but where were you when the cavalry charged ? In the (iaakers'-yard. I saw them move from - before Buxton's house to the.charge; t net e was then ti complete conyulsioa among the people; I saw the cavalry get to the hustings, and cut down the people. who held the flag, on the hustings. Mr. Hunt seemed to have disappeared at; once, as had - been shot; I lwlicre there were, pe'rtiaps, to or 16 flags. I UM not aware that there were any Hussars, then; the first Hussar I saw was undtr the trail, ordering man to throw down a green Hag tee held;lit s it my attention was then drawn away by the. report of the hist. pistol. [iv Mr. kfarmer-1 saw rio sticks in the 'hands of-the men.
