WESTON-SUPER-ILißE.—Titx Cass or Wrurau
Toast —We understand that efforts are being made to
obtain • reversal of the sentence peered on William
Tore, a labourer belonging to this town, at the moist
Somerset remise. It appears that Tore was charged with
committing an assault, with intent, Az., on a little girt
named Sarah Ana Fisher, and was found guilty of a
common assault only, and sentenced to nine months'
I hard labour. There are, however, it is sad, four reli-
able witnesses, whca• evidence will completely upset
the charge, and prove the man's innocence. flier
affidavits are about to be taken and trensmitted to the
proper authorities, when, it is hoped, the poor follow
will be iihnatad.

would be for the jury to say what they would award to
