poidtively declared that she was perfectly sober, not having

The nurse of the lying-in ward at St. Oiler's workhouse,

that ward was exclusively for patients actually in labour,
she eould not be admitted, and must not stop there. She
said she was • poor unfortunate girl, and had not a single

obliged to attend to her. Weems then told the porters to
pat complainant somewhere else, adding that she might be
taken into the reesiviag ward, but they said she had do.

desired them to take her late the receiving ward, on the'
ground that she was destitute.
Mr. Jardine inquired to which of the porters witness had
said this ?
Witness—To both of them, I think.

she replied that she weld walk as far as the moss. They

if she had had the chinos. On the contrary,
the porters turned her out end shut the gates upon her.
Mr. Jardine said the only coarse oven to him was to refer
the conduct of the workhouse officials to the consideration
of the board of guardians,
Beho would, he hoped, investigate
the matter thoroughly. H would not at present make any
comment upon that part of the case. As to the defendant,
if her account of the matter was true, she had cortaiol•
acted fairly enough, and her conduct appeared to have bean
reasonable, humane, and proper. But the inquiry mast be
adjourned till after the board bad examined their servants
upon the subject, and then he should be better able to form
an opinion upon the matter. The defendant must attend

The governor of the workhouse said he would communi-
cate his worship's desire to the board.

him taking any part in the service of the church. On
Sunday outing witness was summoned from his private
reddens, into the sacristy by an alarm that a robbery had

who was also connected with the chub, proceeded to the

and collections were deposited bad been broken open. It
contained some silver, but 71. in gold was missed. An old
rusty oyster knife, a gamble;, and a sight up were found—
the latter not belonging to any one in his (Dr. Oakley's)
establishment. The prissier passed from the church into
