(THIS DAY.)

BOW-STREET.

7:IE USE OF THE ILDIPL—APPRIMEDDID DCA= BOY
STABBDIG.
J % r—Ying was brought up on remand, cged with
Daniel Churchill, • labourer, who DOW lies In • din-
serous condition at King's College Hospital.
h,pe,;tor Brannan of the F division, mentioned to the
court that the house surgeon at King's College Hospital Ina
of opinion that the deposition of the wounded man ought
:Alien at once, as he was in a very precarious date and
might perhaps not survive.
Burnabe, the chief clerk, said the deposition bad
hero taken already. It was as follows : " I live at 11,
Kiorstreet, Drury-lane, and am • labourer. About
12 o'clock on Saturday night I was coming along the
street when I saw a barrow at the corner of
King-street and Drury.lane, with oysters and whelks.
T:+e prisoner was standing there eating oysters. There WOO
3:10 two men and two women eating oyster@ there. The
',cement, which, was very narrow, woe blocked up,
nd the prisoner stood in my way so that I could
not net by. I asked him to let me pass. He mid he
should not. I tried to get by bet be would not let me.
1 siked him why he stopped me, and mid I had as
Food • right to paw as anyone else. He said he
would show me. I replied, 'lf you are going to show ens,
let me get out of the way.' I stepped out into the road,
and he came out to one, and we began fight I don't re-
member any blow being struck till I .
received one on the
side of the neck, and I was knocked down. I did not as
anything in his band."
Among the witnesses now examined was Mr. Kemp-
thorpe, house physician at the King's College Hos-
eitaL who said that on Thursday the main artery
in the neck of Churchill woe tied and he was
put to bed. It is an operation involvieg danger.
In fact it is what is called • "capital operation," and I =t-
ont tell (raid the witeces), whether the consequences may
be favourable or otherwise. He is now sensible, but he
might at any time become worse. The wounds are such
ss might be inflicted with the knife produced.
Mr. Vaughan—Within what time could you form • judg-
ment as to whether the danger will beroutovedor otherwise?
Mr. Kempthorpe—Certainly not in leas than a fortnight,
sod perhaps not for • mouth.
. .

iEs prisoner—The doctor at the hospital made the cut i*
srm.

Mr. Vaughan again remanded the prisoner.
