reply to Mr. Clifton that he had resided in Bath for
many years. He had had considerable experience in

Wi•lcombe bridge two or three times daily. He had
from time to time observed the repairs' made at the

Inn.! occasion to find fault with the bridge. There WY
the same emotivity in it the (lay before it broke &WTI
as there was on the day it was opened. No complaint
had ever been made to him about the structure. In
his judgment there was no visible defect in the bridge
that called for reparation. He had seen large num-
bers passing over the bridge at one time. Mr. Clifton
stated that a toll-house could not be erected ont the
north eide, as the ground there belonged to the Great
Western Railway Company. By the Inspector: HASS

bridge since it had been taken out of the river. The

breaking of the bridge WWI over weighting, and he
believes! if the flame number of people that were on it

structure the day it wag opened it would have br ,ken
flown. In his opinion it was never constructed to bear
such a weight as was thrown upon it,,,, the day of the
accident. Ile never thought it a proper bridge for a
',Odic bridge, he thought it was too slight. Mr.
Amor's evidence having been read over to him, Mr.
Clifton said he thought he could not tender any more
etidenee that day. He shotild like to confer with Mr.
Norris before he tendered any more witnesses, and they
could not get over the fact that the bridge was over-
weighted. The inspector remarked it “hould be oshown
on the part I.f the proprietors of the bridge that when
it was put up it was constructed sufficiently strong to
hear the ;greatest weight that could be put upon it.
Mr. Clifton contended that if a man made the bridge
improperly the proprietors could not be held to blame.
The Inspector sail that it was part of the duty ",f the
proprietors of a bridge to take care that a sufficiently
strong structure was erected to support the persons
who might make use of it. Mr. Clifton suggested that
it was a question how far the persons who congregated
on the bridge contributed to the accident by passing
over it in large numbers. (Laughter.) People might
laugh ; but suppoxe there had been a ferry boat, and
pernms came down pelt melt into the boat, would the
man be liable for any accident.

holders, came to him when they proposed building the
bridge, and said the builder proposed to put it iip
without any tie nals. Acting on his advice, they
ordered him to make an iron tie, and this was put up
as an extra. It was wished by the proprietorn to test
the bridge up to five tons, and he lent them pig Iron
for that purpose.—What is your opinion of the safety
of the bridge with 100 persons packed close together
on the toll-gate end of the structure?—! should sot
like to have been one of them. (Laughter)
Mr. William Morrison, platform-inspector at the
Great Western Railway station, Bath, stated it was a
metal thing for excursionists to leave the station by the
incline. The placard referred to could be plainly seen
from a spot half way dewn the slope.—The inquiry
wax then adjourned until Saturday morhing.

the Methodists had the cultivation of this entire field for
thirty-five years and were the only section of the Church
who during that long space of time provided for the
people the ordinances and sacraments of religion, and gave
a sound religious education to their children, we think

God, that, as a connection, we are closing a very
