LAMBETH.

Mr. Edward Way, a tTalle;;llaWalworth, accompanied
by a poor old female who appeared to be is a state of great
mental affliction, applied to Mr. Elliott for his advice and
assistance under the following extraordinary circumstances:
The applicant stated that about a fortnight ago a poor
man of the same of Freshwater, and who for some years
had rented the refreshment rooms at the Zoological Gardens,
and who bad been a respectable ratepayer of the pariah of
S. Mary Newington, was attacked with fever, and, being
much radioed in etreumstancos, was removed to thv parish
workhouse, where he died oa Tuesday last. Oa the
same evening a person named Robert Henry Parrot: called
at the workhouse, and said he had the cosiest of the de-
ceased's friends to take the body out, and it was delivered
up to him. He also represented that be had tee permission
of the friends of the deceased to make a post martens exami-
natio., and the undertaker with whom he had placed it
permitted him to do so. Parrott amordingly took away the
heart, sad commenced exhibiting it; making it a pretest
for collectiag mosey, as he said, foe the burial of the cli-
maxed ; but there was every sawn to believe that he was
opining the proceeds to his own use. In the meantime the
undertaker refused to bury the corpse until he was paid for
doing so. The catesequenos of the whole proceeding was to
cause the Wood grief t the widow and friends of the de-
ceased, none of whom had given the slightest sanction or
countenance to Parrott for his highly extraordinary and
improper eonduet in the matter.
Mr. Elliott directed Coster, one of the warrant officers, to
accompany the applicant to the office of the clerk to the
guardians of the parish, to make inquiries respecting the
cam.

On ►is return, Coster informed Mr. Elliott that the state-
ment of the applicant was quite true.
Mr. Elliott said the whole proceeding wee ens of a most
extraordinary character, and it was due to the feelings of
the poor widow and relatives of the deceased, that the
palish officers should give some explanation of the matter.
Mr. Elliott then directed Coster to cali on the parish officers,
and request their attendance before him on the folloviug
(this) afternoos.
