THE ALLEGED MURDER IN THE KINOSLAND-
ROAD.

INQITEST.—(THIS DAY.)
This morning Mr. John Humphreys, Middlesex
coroner, resumed at the Black Horse Tavern Kings.
land-road, the inquiry relative to the death of William
Burke, aged 35, who was stabbed by a woman with whom
he was cohabiting, under very shocking circumstances.
Mr. Watson, from the office of Mr. Abbott, appeared on
behalf of the seemed, Anne Perry; and Mr. Burgess, from
the office of Mr. Venn, watched the case for the friends of
the deceased.

The woman Perry was brought up in custody under a
warrant from the Sorretary of State.
Mary Jane Perry, a little girl, said that she was now an
inmate of Shorditch workhouse. She lived last week
with her mother at 67, Fly-place. William Burke lived
with her mother. lie returned home on the night of last
Friday week. He salted her mother what was the matter,
and then they quarrelk I. He knocked her mother's head
against the wall, and shoved her out of the room. She went
in agaio, and then witness saw a knife in her hand when she
cares out again. Before witness had left the room she saw
the same knife on the table in the middle of the room. Her
mother made " • strike" with the knife at Burke, who
was at the door. He went away bleeding directly. The
only blow witness law struck was that which Burke gave
her mother. Witness did not know whether either of them
were sober.

illiam Whiting, 60, Ely-place, shoemaker, said that
about 10 o'clock on the night in question, he heard some
bad e:pra.iooa from the prisoner. He went to the spot,
No. 6 , and saw her in the act of striking deceased. They
were just inside the door. He saw her take a knife from
the table and stab Burke in the left thigh. She said, "Take
that, you I'll rip your liver out." She then
threw the knife at him. He called out, " Oh,
take me to a doctor ; she has killed me." The blood was
flowing from him. The woman said, " I know I did
it." She tried to lift him up. The police came and took
her into custody. The whole affair lasted ten minutes.
Dr. Harebell slid that about half -put 10 o'clock on the Fri-
day night he was called to the Bingsland.roadpoliceatation.
Deceased was there dy" . There was a wound on the left
thigh, which was bandaged. He died almost directly.
Witness made a post mortem examination by the coroner's
ordam There was a wound on the outside of the thigh
two althea in length. He found it penetrated to a depth of
five inches. It divided the femoral artery just previously to
its becoming popliteal. The cause of death was exhaustion
from loci of blood from the wound. An ordinary table-
knife would lanai such a wound.

LeclierTioTiipiii&i:Kinpland-road, said that
on the night of the 31st of July she saw the woman Perry
and Burke standing at their own door. Burke said I
have been to work, as all the men know." Perry said,
" You at work, you Irish —," and she tried to kick him.
She then struck him with a knife she had in her hand,
siring "Take that, you Irish —." She threw the knife
at him and repeated the words. Witness did not know
where she got the knife as she did not go into the house
after witness went up to the house.
Anne Perry was then cautioned, hut by the advice of her
solicitor declined to make soy statement. She said that she
had beet married, but her husband died six years ago.
The Coroner then read over the voluminous depositions
and proceeded to sum up. He explained the difference
between murder and manslaughter, and said that it was
clear that in the present case the offence did not amount to
murder. There was a quarrel and in the heat of the moment
the accused snatched up a knife and inflicted an injury
which proved fatal. The element of malice was absent.
. .

The ;limy returned a verdict of " Manalaughter against
Anne 'wry."
The coroner thou limed hie warrant, and Mr. Waller took
the primmer into custody, for conveyance to Newgate.
