.• proceedings in the Divorce Conrt were taken by
. uthill against Captain Tuthill, the result being a
--a of pidi.stal separation, with an allowance to Mrs.
..f I 'O.. per annum alimony. The complainant was
~u her mother's behalf in the Divorce Court, and
that tine Captain Tuthill had cohabited withthedefend-
. • ~ and wife, but neither of them had forgiven the
plaioant for the part she took in exposingtheirdialionour.
:onip:ani,itir, too, had been unfortunate in her mar-
for after living with her husband about eleven

its. sought the advice and protection of a friend of the

Less wife in lending them money, which had never been
and as the complainant was wholly without means,
Berridge had kindly advanced her some money, which
•,-rnnised shortly to repay, as eke had expectations hide-
-- i,,nt of her parents or her husband, lie (Mr.
,etts) had mentioned these matters, which might per. appear irrelevant to the present proceeding, in ?indica-
. the character of his client, and in justice to Mr.
-rmige, to whom the defendant and Captain Tuthill im-
' ...1 the worst motives. The complainant bad one child,
- about 4 years, of whom Capt. Tuthill a short time ago
possession under the pretence that he wanted to buy

_I had since refused to give him up. The complainant
c; unwilling that the child should remain in her father's
: on the 31st of August last went there to see the
when her father denied that the child was in the
. but the complainant at the same time sew the
-‘endaot on the stairs dragging the child into a room,
defendant then used the vilest language towards the
-nplainant, who left the house, but the defendant and
pt. Tuthill followed her, and whilst the latter assaulted
!!r. Kerridge's coachman, the former pursued the complain-
through the streets uttering a threat, from which, and
'm her violent temper and habitat, the complainant was
/raid the defendant would do her some bodily harm, and,
~..erefore, asked the magistrate to bind over the defendant
: • keep the peace towards her.

Mrs.r Florence Ayre was then sworn, and said—l am the
rfe of Martin Vernon Ayr., from whom I am separated.
I reside at 13, New Ormond-street. I have a child four
-.Ars old. A short time ago my father, Captain Tuthill,
-.laced me to let him have the child, saying he
',lid shortly return him to me. He has since kept
1:•n. and refuses to let me have him. On the 31st of
i.:2Ult I went to my father's house to see my child. My
.:per said it was not there, but I saw the defendant on
landing dragging the child into a room. I called to her
t I wanted- to see the child. She exclaimed,
By God, you won't have your child." She then
dreadful expressions towards me. I then ran out
: the hou.e, and was streaking to Mr. Karridge's coachman
.ten defendant and my father came after me. The de-
:Ant then rushed at me, but I ran away, and she pursued
..,.clout 1;0 yards, when I ran into a tailor's shop for pro-
: •t:nn. On Saturday last 'became to my house with a man.

Me. Lewis said a great deal of matter bad been imported
itto the cue, simply with the object of raising prejudice.
lie did not deny that his client had uttered. threat towards
c mplaioaat, but the msgistrate would know how to treat it
v:-.en he remembered that it was uttered seven days ago,
1.0 the defendant tad done nothing to complainant.
Mr. Berker ordered the defeadant to be bound over in the
nn, of 501. to keep the peace for six months.
Mr. Rickette &eked that the surety might be recorded,

Yes. iiirketts said this was • summons by Randall against
( amain Tuthill for assault. which would now be proceeded
• Whilst the defendant in the Brat case was abusing
Avre, Captain Tuthill seized Randall by the collar,
I shook him violently, calling him • villain
a scoundrel, and accused him of prowling
a'•nt the premises for some unlawful purpose. Ran-
s coat, waistcoat, and shirt were torn. The assault was
Nether unprovoked, as the complainant had merely
c-,ired his master's orders in accompanying Mrs. Are.
Me defendant had often been charged with assaults, and
1,1 been sent to prime, and he (Mr. Rikette) now asked
inagistrate to teach him that persons were not to be

•-orge Randall, on being sworn, stated that the defend-
:- I. without any cause, seised him in the street, and shook
L:-. rioleatly, tearing hi clothe,.
:as-ezarnined by Mr. Lewis—My clothes maybese been
in endeavouring to get sway from defendant, hat he
bold of me and shook me. The defendant did say,
