The Right Hon. JOHN BECKETT, Judge Advocate. His Majesty's Warrant for holding the Court , Martial having been read, and the Members having been sworn in the usual form, the Court was opened. Lieut.-Colonel Gore was then called in, and entered the room attired in hid full drzts uni fool, without his sword, accompanied by Mr. Alio Lritus as his Counsel, and Mr. HARMER as his Solicitor. CHAAGE. " For having, on the 2d of August last, at a public house in Oxford-street, associated with and joined company with, and drank beer with Corporal Samuel George, of the Coldstream Regiment of Foot Guards ; such conduct being unbecoming the character of an Officer and a Gentleman, and to the prejudice of good order and military discipline." Col. Woo or o RD, as Commander Of the Coldstream Guards, appeared officially to conduct the prosecution'. In opening the case to the Court he stated the peculiar situation in which he stood, and said that it was but justice to Lieut.-Col. Gore to state, that from the first moment the subject of this charge had been mentioned, he had expressed an anxious desire to have his conduct scrutinized in the most minute as well as in the most public Manner, and the present Court was convened by hiS particular desire. The gallant Colonel then proceeded to state the circumstances which had led first to an inquiry into the story which the, person by whom the accusation had been preferred (Corporal Samuel George) had told, and finally to the present proceeding ; after which, he stated the evidence which he had to offer in support of the charge. • EVIDENCE. Corporal &mind George, sworn and examined. The charge having been read over to him, he gave his evidence to the fol lowing effect : On the 2d of August I came offguard, and went with a parcel to the city. On my return through Oxford street, I looked at a print-shop at the corner of Holles-street ; this was about half-past six. After a short time Colonel Gore came up and looked in at the same window ; he came so close as to touch me. I went from there to a caricature shop in Vere-street ; Colonel Gore followed me. From Vere-street I went down Oxford-street. I crossed over at the Regent Cir cus. Colonel Gore came up to me. He was sometimes a little before and some times a little behind me. He went to the door of the Nag's -Head public-house, and beckoned to me with his hand to follow him, which I did. This was near seven o'clock in the evening. I went into a little room on the left hand side, and .sat down. Colonel Gore stood facing the bar, and asked for a pot of beer, and paid for it. It was brought into the room where I was. During the time Colonel Gore was at the bar, he asked the servant girl whether she was mar ried or whether it was not time for her to be married ? The pot of beer was brought in and put to me ; I drank; Colonel Gore . afterwards took the pot and drank also. Before he put the pot out of his hand, a Gentleman came into the same room, and called for some porter and the newspaper. Colonel G. imme diately put the porter out of his hand, got up and went out, saying he - would come back presently. I saw no more of him that evening. I remained there and drank the beer. Before I left the room the. Gentleman who came in fell asleep. The Landlady's daughter came in and shook him, and said that was not a place to sleep in. I went and stood outside of the door. Two soldiers of the same reiment with me came past (Shaw and Maw: e n), and I told the circumstance to them, that I had been in company with Colonel Gore in the public-house, and told them the dress he had on. I left them, and went to the Knightsbridge Barracks. (Witness then pointed out Colonel Gore.) That :is the same person who was its the public-house with me. Ile wore a brown coat with white trowiers, very dirty, all over grease. He had on a black hat, his coat was very shabby. In cross-examination, witness said, I did not speak of this to any body till the Sunday week after the Friday night. I then mentioned it at the canteen at Knightsbridge. Serjeant Powell was present. He said " that was an old tale ; he had heard that before." I was examined about it before the officers of Colonel Gore's regiment. I have always given the same account of . the transaction as Ido now, as near as possible. I have said that Foster, Captain Saiway's servant, saw me go into the public-house. 1 cannot swear whether he did or did not. --- • The witness was then ordered to withdraw. The JUDGE ADVOCATE now intimated that a list of names had been put into his hand of persons who were to be called in support of Corporal George's testimony. He thought it but fair that George should be present during theif examination. The Court concurred in the proposition, and George was re called. Catherine Hair was then'eallcd.. She stated that she lived with her father, at the Nag's .Head in Oxford-street. She re membered the 2d of August, and recollected, on the evening of that day, about seven o'clock, a soldier and a gentleman corn: ing into the house. They went into a small room opposite the bar, and one of them called for a pot of beer. She drew it and sent it in by the servant. She had no recollection of the Soldier or the Gentleman. The Gentleman was dressed in a brown coat, and sat opposite the soldier. A man went into the roomshortly after their arrival, and called for half a pint of beer. She remembered his.falling asleep, and she went to awake him. She had seen Corporal George since the night in question, but had no recollection of having seen him previously. The witness then looked at: Colonel Gore, but declared most solemnly that she had never seen him before to her knowledge. Cross-examined : The soldier to whom she alluded did not ask her, after the departure of the Gentleman, if she knew him, or if she would know him again; nor did she tell him that she had seen.him before. Witness withdrew. Mary M'Carthy now lives at the Lion and Horn, in Pollen street, Grosvenor-square ; she previously lived as servant at the Nag's Head, in Oxford-street. Recollected Friday, the 2d of August. On the evening of that day, between six and seven, a soldier and a Gentleman came into the house ; they went into the tap-room. Her mistress', itie last witness, called her to carry them a pot of beer. She took it in, and the gen tleman paid for it. That was the first time she had seen the gentleman. He gave her a sitpence or a shilling; she was sure he paid her in silver. She went to' the bar, got change, and carried it back to him ; did not remember exactly what change she gaVo him. She took the money and gave it to her young mistress. The Gentlenian was sitting; to the right as she went into tilt room, and the soldier was sitting at the opposite side of the table. She should know the soldier, but had no recol lection of the Gentleman., She thought she should not know him again. She reniemb red his dress : it was a brown coat and white trowsers ; the latter wete very dirty ; it was a wet afternoon. Could • not say whether his hat was on or off. Thought the Gentleman -said something to her about being Married. He said, are you married ? orlon ought to get mar ried ; or something of that sort ; and she went out of the room. —[The witness was' directed to look at Corporal George—she did so, and said that was the soldier. She was then desired to look at Colonel Gore. Upon being asked if she knew him, she promptly said she did not ; she had never seen him before to her knowledge. She could not say whether he was the Gentle man with the, soldier or not.l--The Gentleman did not stop long. The soldier followed him out, but returned again, sat down, and finished the beer. • He afterwards was speaking with two other soldiers, in their working dress, at the door. Elizabeth Green, a woman whose appearance indicated that she did not belong to the most chaste or respectable' part of so ciety, was the third 'witness called. She stated that she had lived in Chandler-street, Grosvenor-square. She was not a housekeeper. On the 2d of August, she saw Corporal George in Oxford-street. She knew him before that time. When she first saw him he was standing at the corner of Vere-street, look ing into a fruit shop. A man came up and spoke to him. He said something ; she did not hear what. This.was about half past six or seven in the evening. They walked together straight down Oxford-street, till they came to Regent Circus. She fol lowed them. Corporal George then crossed the street and went into a public-bouse, and the Gentleman went in after him. It was the second or third public-house from the Circus , She Went on, and did not see any more of them. The Gentleman was dressed in a brown coat and very dirty white trowsers. His hat was as mean as the other part of his dress. She was induced to follow than, and her attention was particularly attracted to them, because she had - known Corporal George so long, that she thought he would have 'spoken to her. She did not see the Gentleman's face. As was the case -- With the former witness, this- witness was now desired to look at Corporal George ; she did so, and said she kneW him very well. She was then directed to look round the room and point out, if she could, the Gentleman to whom she alluded as having gone With George into the public-house. She looked round the room in rather a loose manner, till her eyes rested upon Colonel Gore, who sat in a chair by the side of Mr. Adolphus,. and was, consequently, on comparison With that Gentleman, rather a conspicuoaS firgure. She said " that Gentleman (pointing to Col. Gore) resembles the man more than any body else." She could not swear that it was him, but she thought it was. In cross-examinations she said she had seen the corporal, with a sergeant, a few days since at her lodging, and once be fore, when he called to ask her if she had seen him with a Gen tleman in Oxford-street. She admitted that she had said she did not see the Gentlenian's face; and she now only spoke to him, because of his size and thinness; 'nit she could not speak to his face, nor had she any recollection of it. She was a mar ried woman; her husband was a tallow-chandler, and was now workingat Rochester. • He left her seven months since. She formerly lived in Shoreditch, subsepiently moved to Barrett's= court, Wi,gmore-street, and from thence to her present lodgings, where she had been about five months. The witness was ordered to withdraw. At the desire of the President, the Court was thni cleared ; and, after some deliberation, strangers were again admitted. The witness, Elizabeth Green, was ordered to be recalled.— The Serjeant in attendance went for her, but shortly afterwards returned, and - announced that she had gone away, declaring she would not stop for any person. The PRESIDENT desired that she might beteht for to her bdgings, and a set jeant was dispatched after her forthwith. John. Share, a private in the milt Company of Coldstream Guards, examined'.—He said he knew for what he was called to attend that Court; and on being directed to' State all that came within his knowledge respecting the charge, he deposed, hat about six or seven' weeks since, he could not tell the day of the week or month, he had been to all upon a comrade in War dour-street, and was returning home between 8 and 9 o'clock to his quarters at Knightsbridge ; as he went up Oxford-street, he saw corporal George standing with his back to a public house, with a stick in his hand. He went up to speak to hint, when he said a gentleman had met him, and told hint to follow him, and went into a public-house and called fOr some porter ; after they had beets there a short. tune, another man came in, and the Gentleman got up and went away. He added, that he went to the laridlady, and asked her if she knew the gentleman, and she said not. He then asked her if she would know him again if she saw him; bitt site said she had not noticed hint. That was all lie told him. Witness was accompanied by his cont.; Tatle, Mas On. The public-house was below Regent-street. The JurraE-AnvocATE. asked George, if he had any Inca dons io put to this Witness ? To which' he replied, that he had told hint the dress the Gentleman had on, and also that it was Colonel Gore. He added, that in a conversation with the wit ness in Knightsbridge - BarrackS subsequently, when corporal Marshal was present, he said when he came before the Gen.: tleman he was afraid to tell the truth ; but what he had said he would now stick to. The witness, on.being questioned as to the truth of this state ment, denied most positively that George had ever mentioned the name of Colonel Gore to hint on the evening they met in Oxford-street, or deaeribed the dreas of thiperion who had treated him with porter. He admitted that he had a conversation with George in the barraCk yard at Knightsbridge, on the Sun day after he was examined on this subject; when, in answer to a question from George as to what he had-said, he stated that he trembled all over, but had told the truth. George asked him " what the Gentleinen said to him ?" and be said, " they asked him who the Gentleman was whom he (Georgey had described as having drunk with hint ?" and that his answer was, "he did not know." Upon which George swore and said " why did you not say it was Gore ?" To which he re plied, " it' lie wanted him to say any thing, he should have conic and told hint so before he went in ; but he could -not now add any thing to what he had said." In further examination by the Court, he repeated most so= lemnly that George never did tell him who the Gentleman was, nor ever described his dress. James Mason, also a private in the'Coldstream Guards, and in the same company with the last witness, corroborated his testimony as to meeting With George in Oxforchstreet, and as to the fact of George never having described the dress or men.: tioned the name of the Gentleman who he said treated him to porter in a public-house. The Serjeant who had been sent in pursuit of Mrs. Green having returned, alul announced that he had brought her back, she was called in, when, in examination by the Court, she re peated her story, that she first saw George standing looking into a fruit shop at the corner of Vere-street r that a gentleman came up to him, and that they both went directjy down Ox ford-street to the publiC=house she had described. Some further questions were then put to her respecting her husband,.but she declined answering them. What she, came there about had nothing to do with her or her husband) site, she did not see why she should be questioned on those topics. The PRESIDENT told her it was her duty to answer every question which the Court might think proper to put to her with a view to the furtherance of justice. Upon her questioning the right of the Court to enforce such a rule, however, and becoming somewhat impertinent, she was ordered to withdraw. _ Corporal Marshall deposed thathe was present at a conversa= time between corporal George and private Shaw, in Knights bridge barracks, on a Sunday morning, when the former ac cused the latter of not telling the truth before the g entleman ; to which the latter replied, that " If he wanted him to say any thing, he should have spoke to him before he went in,. and then he should have known what to say ; but he was so fright ened he did not know what he was going to say." In answer to a question from George, witness said that Shaw said he was afraid to say the truth, or some word of that sort. John Shaw being recalled, and the evidence of Marshall stated to him, he said it was not correct, and he repeated his former testimony ; -adding, that what he said was, " that he had told them all he knew, but that he Was all 'of a tremble, and scarce knew what he' was doing." He never said he was afraid to tell the truth. The PREkDENT here asked George, if he had any more witnesses ? He mentioned the names of two others ; but it ap.: pearing, from George's statement, that their evidence had no reference whatever to the chitge before the Court, they were not called.—The case for the prosecution being now closed, at half past three the Court adjourned. SECOND DAY.-SATURDAY• TEIE DEFENCE. On the opening of the Court this clay, 'Colonel GORE ex.: piesied a wish to have Corporal George and Mrs': Green again called in. Corporal Oeorge having been called, was then examined for the defence. He had known Mrs. Green ever since the begin ning of 1819: She Was not related to him. She had said 'she was his sister, but she was not. She mentioned when she went to the Tower that she was his sister. She had been to these barracks to see him, but not as his sister. `ever saw her after the affair in Oxford-street, till he saw her when he went to her in company with the serjeant. He had been in confine ment ever since. Colonel WoorrrOßD here remarked that the witness had the liberty of going out whenever he chose to ask. Witness, in continuation, said that he was put in 'confinement about the 14th August. From the al of August to the 14th he was at liberty to go where he pleased. Saw Elizabeth Green in Oxford-street on the.2d. (The witness remained in Court.) Mrs. Green was not in attendance. Colonel GORE now intreated that the JUDGE ADVOCATE would be pleased to read a written address which he handed in. The JUDGE ADVOCATE said it was not usual to call upon an officer of the CoMt to read such papers, unless froni some peculiar reason assigned. Colonel GORE said he was extremely short sighted, and therefore should feel it a favour if his request were complied with. The Court having signified their acquiescence, The DEPUTY JUDGE ADVOCATE proceeded to read the following Address : Mr. PRESIDENT AND GENTLEMEN—I cannot enter upon my defence without acknowledging, with heartfelt gratitude, the very handsome and liberal manner in which the charge against m e w as introduced to the Court by CclOnel Woodford. I was desirous it should be known, and he has liherally made it known to you, that from the moment it was intimated that an accusation existed, I was anxious for an inquiry, that I might face my accuser and vindicate my character. And however painful and distressing it may be to be called upon to repel a charge so disgraceful as that which is now untie- inquiry, and so malignant as that which was avowedly intended, I feel it as the very highest consolation that I am to answer before a Court composed of gentlemen and men of honour-Hof persons who, while they are duly attentive - to the duties imposed on them by their-tituation, will adequately feel for the distressing anxiety Of mine. When'l assert, as lam confident l shall prove, that the charge, and all the evidence upon it, at it relates to me, is utterly false and unfounded, it may naturally be asked, what can have induced the prosecutor to make such an accusation, when he knew it to_ be utterly unfOunded ? I am unable to define, or even to surmise, the personal motives of the indi vidual; but, I am sorry to observe, that these times are fruit,. ful in instances of the extraordinary excesses to which men may be carried by envy and hatred of their superiors in rank and authority, and by the distinction which they hope to gain in certain classes of society by malignant aspersions and daring attacks upon those who are elevated above them in station and in character. Gentlemen---If the charge against me Stood as it now does i Without my offering a witness in contradiction of it, I should think, 1 may say I should confidently trust, that it would ut terly fail by its own weakness, and still more when the evidence of die only material witness, Corporal George; shall come to be contrasted with his own previous statements, acrd with the con tradictions he has received from those whom he has called to support his case. The narrative which first occasioned this in quiry was made, as I understand, by Corporal George, at the barrack canteen, on Sunday, the 10th of August; company with Serjeant Powell and others, and there he stated that I first came to him at a picture shop, and there had some conversa tion with him ; that he followed me, and that I went into two public houses in Oxford-street; while he remained at the door.; and that, in the like manner, I went into a third public house; that I ordered beer; that 1 paid for it at the bar ; that I brought the beer into the room; and that after 1 was gone he spoke to the mistress of the house about me, who said that she did not know my name; but that I was often there in the evening with soldiers, and often treated them, for which she thought me a very good man. To prove that he made this statement, I shall call Serjeant Powell, who made a minute in writing of what passed. A few days after wards the substance of this conversation having been reported, Corporal George was examined, as he states in his evidence, before the officers of my regiment, and his examination was then taken in writing. He then stated that I first came to him and spoke to him in Oxford -street, as he was looking at some grapes in a window. In confirmation of this story he stated that one Foster had seen him when he went into the house, and that he saw Shaw and Mason, when he was going away, and tpld them, among other things, he had been prinking with old Gore. The evidence he had given before this Honourable Court corresponds more nearly with that which he gave before the Officers, than with his former conversation ; but when it is placed by the side of that which is stated by the witnesses ee Pointed out b,y himself to support his narrative, it will be found, even by-them, to be materially contradicted. You will observe, that in the statement made here, he says the first shop he was looking into was at the corner of 11011 es-street. There is a fruit shop there. He says he went to Vert-street, where I followed him. If so, we must have returned a considerable distance along Oxford-street, to reach the publicJiouse, kept by flair, and placed by the witness beyond the Regent's Crescent. The only witness called to support hin - nin this part of his story is Elizabeth Green, - and she states matter quite irrecoucileable to his narrative. She says Slie firSt saw George loOking into a fruit-shop at the corner of Vere , street ; there is no fruit shop at or near the corner of Verestreet ; the nearest to it is two doors from Old Cavendish-street. But it may be said, she mistakes Holles-street for Vere-street, and die shop George was looking into was that which he has mentioned in Court. Snell a supposition can hardly be admitted, consider ing the exactness with which she described the place when in terrogated by the Court; and especially by its relative situa- . tion to Bond—street ; but, if she did mean Holles-street, then her story is still more incredible ; for then she, with a child in ' her arms must nave proceeded- after George and me ! towards Hyde-park, as far as Vere-street, turned up Vere ! street (for the print shop there is a good way up on the right hand, at the corner of Chapel-place), returned along QxtOrd road, past Holles-Street, where she had first seen us; and then gone on to the public-house where she saw us go in. Now of all this, very material if true, she has not said one word ; but, on the contrary, simply stated that she followed us straight along Oxford-road; nor has she said a word about my going into any other public:houses before I went into the one in question. Nor indeed has Corporal George mentioned this fact in his evidence here. But, Genderrien, it must surely strike you as very extraordinary, that if this woman could give such important evidence, her name was never mentioned when George was examined before the officers : nor on any other oc , casion that I know, till she was produced here. 1 forbear to make any remark on the manner in which this witness gaveher . evidence : you saw, and will Make your own observations; but I cannot forbear requesting your particular attention to her' saying that she did not know me ; she never saw my face; and . yet, even while I was sitting, she said that in height and thin: ness I was more like the person she saw, than any other indi vidual in the room. Having never heard the name of this wo man till two or three days ago, and then without any address or description, I could make no inquiries about her : but judge, ,Gentlemen, of my surprise when on leaving the Coirrt after the adjournment yesterday, I was informed, and which is since as certained to be true, that she is, or has long passed for the sisz 'ter of this Corporal G. whom she pretended to have known only three years. The witnesses called to prove what passed in the house are Catharine Hair and. Mary ..11`Carthy. I will not stop to examine, but merely notice the difference between their evidence and the statement first made by George of my payin g for the beer at the bar and taking it into the room my self. Habit is a second nature, and I will leave you, Gentle men, to judge whether it is probable that a man well born, and used all his life to the attendance of servants, should, even if he so far debased himself as to drink at an alehouse with a soldier, become so suddenly transformed as to sink into is _waiter. But do these witnesses, or does either of them, lenu the least support to the stories he has told about his conversa tion with the mistress of the house, and her having told him that 1 was frequently there treating soldiers. The story he is confirmed in hi very likely true, so far as he is confirmed ; it is very likely that he was in the house between six and seven, drinking - with a man dressed as he describes, and that another man came in who went to sleep, and the first man went away ; but it is utterly untrue that I was the man. Of' all the witnesses he has called, not one has sworn to any person ; but if I had conversed with and paid money to the females he has called, in the manner he describes, it is next to impossible but that they must have had some idea of the appearance of such a per son, enough at least to have stated whether 1 resembled him or not. I shall say very little about the evidence of Shaw and Ma son. They are witnesses selected by George himself' to sup port his testimony, although he has called another witness, Cor poral Marshall, to throw discredit on one of them. Of these men I know nothing; what he may have expected from them, and on what his expectations may have been founded, 1 can not tell ; but of this I feel assured, that if he had ; on the 2d of August, told them that he had been drinking at an ale-house with me, long before the 10th, every soldier, every military man, and probably all the - world besides, would have been in formed of it. They have been examined, and I shall call Foster to prove that he did not see George or me on the night in question. It may be asked, how it should happen that this man should fix on me, in preference to any other person ? Tim sequel of My defence will chew that 1 may have been seen in Oxford-street on that day, and when, in the course of a very licentious conversation at the canteen, a servant, whom I was then about to discharge, mentioned me, it probably occurred to Corporal George to fix on me facts which applied to some other person, and to add such circumstances as he thought would give additional effect. If I were addressing a Court composed of persons to wham honour is less dear than it is to British Officers, I should offer an apology for consuming so! much time in animadverting on the ease attempted to be made out - against me, when I have to produce full, decisive, and ir resistible proof that e l could not possibly be engaged with George in the manner he has alleged. To you, I am sure, no-- such apology is necessary ; for even if your judgment should! disapprove the course I have taken, your honourable minds will participate in my feelings. You will bear in mind that the time I am supposed to have passed in the disgraceful inter, course you have heard of, 'is from about half-past six or Seven o'clock, to some time about a quarter of an hour or twenty Mi nutes after seven. I shall sheWty the clearest evidence how I was engaged, not only that portion, but during the whole day ; and prove beyond a doubt that this charge against . = is Tit E AST INDIA HOUSE, Sept. 4, 18e9.
