Haigh 's wife had lived with Popes from her infancy, and
on the °amnion of her ineniegie be tneabwred his furniture
and effects to her husband's home. Latterly Haigh, who
has been • men highly impeded, and so far
religious in his habits as to be a Sunday school
teacher, has manifested a moderns and harshness of
disposition which has been • source of great satiety
to hie wife, to whom kis conduce has latterly been very

the Coins-bridge Mille, and belonged to a workmen's benefit

tioned hie counexiou with the society, but his eitheotiptioce
had been paid by .1,, whom the old men regularly
refunded. On Friday n' last the treasurer of the society
called upon Haigh for opal's subecriptios, and, though
he paid without laying anything, it was fancied that be
manifested some reluctance in doing so. Os Friday night
Haigh retired to rest ea usual. Between three and four
o'clock on the following morning he awoke hie wife and

proper to humour him, sod readily commenced to repeat the
prayers which he used. They were cosoluding with the Lord's
prayer, when he soddenly Mopped and struck hie wife •
violent blow on the face with his fist, replying, in answer
to her question as to what it was for, that the wee "only

lug him, and again went to sleep. About five o'clock she
was awoke by • strange sensation, as though the had been

boded valence. Alarmed, she jumped oat of trd and ran
out of the house in her night dregs with the intention of

to the house, mod found her husband waiting for her inside.

bedroom door, opening on to the aims landing, to ascertain
the cause of the commotion. Haigh no sooner saw him
than he let go his violent hold of the woman, who made a
hasty retreat down stairs, and rushing towards hie outer-
Unite victim, threw him to the ground, jumped upon him,
and trampled him beneath his feet, crushing and mangling
him in a frightful manner. While this was going on, the
