o'clock. At half past two next morning I was awoke by a
noise in the cellar. I struck a light and went down stairs,
taking with me a stick. On opening a cellar-door I saw a
man standing. He had an iron stancheon in his hand. I
said " Holton, what an you doing here ? Walk out."
He immediately struck me upon the head with the weapon
and knocked me down. The light was extinguished. I
got up, struck at the prisoner, and we scuffled together for
some time, giving each other blows. I at length opened
the front door, and the prisoner rushed out of the house.
I struck at him as he passed, but the blow mimed. I fol-
lowed him along the road for some distance, until I be-
came very faint from loss of blood, and returned home.—Mr.

Walton's wounds. He found him in an exceedingly weak
state, he having lost a great quantity of blood. Over the

were also inflicted on t`e cheek, chin, and hands. The
wound on the temple was • dangerous one' and ten days
elapsed before it was considered safe to take Mr. Walton's
depositions.

impudent manner.

of Gui/fy, and sentence of death wee passed upon him.
