THE BRIGHTON RAILWAY ACCIDENT: BRIGHTON,
TVIIDAY.—The jury resumed their labours this morning,
the inquiry having been adjourned from the previous even-
ing. Several witnesses who had given evidence on the
former inquest were again examined, but nothing novel was
elicited. The boy Booties was examined by Mr. Faithfull.
Ile gave a preliminary account of the manner in which he
had spent the morning with much clearness; but when
questioned about the accident he cried. When told by his
mother to go on an errand to Ashcombe, he stayed to see the
train. When it mune it went over the archway. He told
, his mother what he saw and he cried. He cried because he
thought something would be done to him—because he
thought they would question him. By " they" he
meant the people in the train—he thought they
would come and ask him if be had done it.
The coroner and the jury having consulted together, Mr.
Somers Clarke was sent for to act as the boy's legal ad-
viser. On the arrival of Mr. Clarke, the question was re-
peated—What was it you thought people would say ?
Boy—That I had been playing see-saw. What did you
think they would say on had been playing see-saw with ?
With the sleepers. You thought this directl you saw the
engine go over the archway? Yes. Mr. Clarke objected
to this examination. Mr. Faithfull—l will ask him one
more question. Mr. Clarke—Don't answer any more ques-
tions. The deposition was then signed. A juror asked—
Did you ever play see-mw on the line ? Boy—No. Mrs.
Hookas was then examined. Her evidence was the same as
that already published. The inquest was adjourned at
seven o'clock, five witnesses remaining tbr examination.
