COWARDLY AND FATAL ASSAULT rPoN A SHOP-
. Yesterday morning three young men were
brought before the Manchester magistrates, charged with
causing the death of Mr. Benjamin Holden Saxon, grocer
and provision dealer, Chester-road, Hulme. The names of
the prisoners are James Weldon, Wm. Pratt, and James I
Drummond. Shortly before eight o'clock on Saturday
night the prisoners were in Chester-road, and annoyed and
struck a young man, named Edward Welch. Welch is •
hard-working labourer,i of singular habits, and not being
very sharp-witted, is akn twed by children, but Mr. Saxon,
who was standing at his door, was indignant at seeing
three men abase him, and called them by some insulting
name. The three at once rushed upon him
(Saxon) and knocked him down in the road. He rose of
his own accord, but appeared • pod deal stunned, and stag-
gered rather in his walk as he attempted to regain his own
door. At this moment the prisoner Weldon again strict I
him on one side his head, and knocked him down again.
The unfortunste man fell with his head heavily upon
the stone flags of the pavement. He was taken up in a
state of insensibility, and died within ten minutes of the
first attack upon him. The three prisoners made their
escape at the time, but were subsequently apprehended by
the police. The magistrates, after a brief examination of
the witnesses preserd, remanded the prisoners until • post
motion examination of the body could be made.
