THE NORFOLK ASSASSINATIONS.

THE INQUEST.
The inquiry before the coroner and jury was re-
sumed on Friday, and, alter oceupyiog several- hours of that
day, and of the next (Saturday), was again adjourned. The
following evidence was given :
Mr. W. P. Nichols, surgeon, of Norwich, said : On Tues-
day night, the 28th inst., I was called to attend at Stanfield
Hall. I arrived there about two o'clock on the Wednesday
morning, when I was shown the body of Isaac Jerzy, Esq.,
which was lying in the dicing-room. There was •
large wound on the left side, and the clothes were
saturated with blood, arising from very recent death. By
that inspection I could not tell the cause of death. On the
30th met. I made a poet ',torten' examination of the body of the
deceased. Oa removing the dress I found a large wound,
situated about two heck's above the nipple of the left breast.
The wound pared through the skin—three of the ribs, the
fourth, fifth, and sixth, directly backwards, destroying the
entire body and apex of the heart, thence through the poe-
teTiOf part of the left spine, where there were several por.
times of singalar.shaped pieces of lead lodged. They were
b4e t in the museular mass behind the tubercles of the fifth
end sixth ribs on the left side, both of which were destroyed.
In the substance of the lungs I found a foreign body,
which I will produce to the jury. I believe that substance
to be the covering of a cartridge. (The substance was exhi-
bited to the jury, who minutely inspected it.) Mr. Teasley
assisted me in the 'gemination, and will produce the piem
of lead. I took them out and gave them to Mr. Tunaley.—
Tie Coroner : Can you state the coin of death ?—Mr.
Nichols : I have no doubt that death en'ued from the result
uf either a tan or pistol shot.—Curoner : DJ you think you
could statt,, the distance at which the pun was die
charged ?—Mr. Nichols : From my experience in gun-shot

weenie, it is my *ash rat the gas Sr pistil was die

staateneestely. litem the wound, I unable to sleet what

WY. Thew is • peados et the shop lift is
the body cow. It wail have loss a matter at smoilisrable
difficulty to have satiated all the shams. We merely took
a suMdest quantity Is show the sass of destk.—Mr. R. J.
Maley, earame, of Wmaosdhssa : I can add nothing
to the statement given by Mr. Nichols. I can
oily telly torroterete and maim what he has
stated, except that I predas two pieces of lead,
whisk I preserved while making a poet marten swains-
tin I left eight et- Ma Meader pieces. lem satisfied then
were many more similar pieces left, [The two pieces of lead
were produced, and were shout the size of large peas)—By
a jitter I cannot tell whether these pieces of lead were put
into the pistols in the shape of lead, or whether it was shot.
The following evidence was then given with reference to
the death of Mr. Jermy Jenny
Mr. Nichols spoke to being called to the ball es in the
previous case. Upon examicing the body of Mr. Jersey
Jermy I observed a small hole in the waistcoat covering the
right side of the chest. I yesterday, with Mr. Tunaley,
made a post martens examination of the body. In removing
the dress I found • small wound, about an inch above and to
the inner side of the right nipple of the breast. The wound
I found went backwards between the third and fourth ribs,
through the base of the heart, • portion of the right lung,
destroying the body of the sixth dorsal vertebra, into the
mem of muscle situated behind the spine. At
the hack of the spine were deposited several portions of
lead of irregular shape which I gave to Tunaley. It was
those pieces which caused the wound I have just described.
The wound was produced by a run or pistol shot, which
must have been ffred'very close to the deceased. There was
no portion of the dune found through the body. I con-
sider that death must have ensued almost iastantaneously.
From th•re having been several pieces of lead deposited in
the body, it is impossible to say what weight had peen used,
or what was the bore of the gun or pistol from which the
charge am discharged.
Mr. A. J. Tunaley fully corroborated the abore evidence,
and further stated that the upper part of the fourth rib had
a small piece taken off, which was occasioned by the charge
striking it. He produced five pieces of lead taken from the
body of Mr. Jersey Jersey. He hid left some similar piece,
which he did not think it necessary le remove.
Ate subsequent stage of the inquiry, it having been re-
quested by the jurors that the lead should be weighed, it
was stated that two pieces of lead taken from the body of
Mr. Isaac Jermy, weighed, the one thirteen grains, and the
other eleven. The fie- pieces taken from the body of Mr.
Jersey weighed, two thirteen grains and the other eleven
each.

James Watson stated : I am butler at S:anfield Hall.
About a quarter-past eight o'clock on Tuesday evening I
was in my pantry, when I beard the discharge of a gun or
pistol shot at the front of the holm. The pantry is in the
front of the house, and nearly adjoins the porch. I left my
pantry immediately alter bearing the report, and when 1
got to the corner of the passage, not more than five or six
feet from the pantry door, I saw • man walking put from
the beak passage towards the staircase ball. He was turn-
ing the corner. Immediately fronting the kitchen passage
was a small Limp. The man was not past the lamp at the
time I first saw him. His fee, was towards me, with some-
thing over it, apparently a mask. He had a cloak on. It
had • cape to it. I do not know whether it was long or
abort. Ido not remember whether it wss above or below
his knees. His head was covered with something, but Ido
not know what. He was a short man and stout. It was a
dark cloak. The man was carrying a pistol in each band.
They were large pistols, but I cannot my the sire of them or
the length of barrel. He did not speak to me, aor did
I speak to him. I believe he saw me. I have been butler of
Stanfield-ball since the 12th of May.—By the coroner: At
the time I saw the man passing the corner it occurred tame
that it was the person of Mr. Rush, whom I have often seen
at Stanfield-ball lately. The last time I saw him there was
on Suaday, the 26th of November, when he came en at the
door. It was about four o'clock in the afternoon, when he
came to the servants' hall. He asked me if he could speak
to Mr. Jenny ; therefore I katew Mr. Ruth perfectly well.
The man I saw was like Mr. Rush in eine, height, and in
his walk. The men was passing me quickly towards the
door leading to the staircase hall, the door of which was
opened by Mr. Isaac Jermy Jermy, at the in-
stant of time that the man that I suppose to be
Mr. Rush reached it. I saw the man fire a pistol, and
Mr. J. Jenny instantly fell back. I went hack into my
pantry. As soon as I was there I heard two
other reporSa. I then came oat, and went towards
the ball staircase. When in the passage Mrs. Jenny
rushed past me towards the beck staircase. I
went on, and opposite the door into the hall staircase I saw
Eliza Chestney lying screaming. She said, "Oh ; take mo
up or I shall die." I did take her up. and took her towards
the back staircase. The turnery bell rang for some water.
I went to get some. I then went to the stable-yard, and saw
the groom. I told him not to take the horse, but to go the
beck way. I went to Mr. Oower'e, and he and his two sons
came soon after. I and Mr. Gower afterwards went to the
front of the house, when by the light from a gig which had
driven up, we saw the body of Mr. Isaac Jermy lying in
the porch. It was about half an hour after I saw His,
Chutney to the time I saw the body of Mr. Jermy.
The body of Mr. Jermy was lying on the few,
with the bead towards the door. The body was removed
into the drawing-rones. I maw some persons remov-
ing it. The glue door of which I have spoken, and
throusb which Ruh entered on the Sunday, was never locked
until about nine o'clock. Mr. Rush was in the habit of
coming into the house by that door without knocking or
ringing. I never saw Mr. Rush come in at any other door,
except he had seen Mr. Jermy on the premises. Mr. Rush
was in the hank of coming to that door late at night. All
persons, except oompany, who went to the porch-dloor en-
tered the house by that side-door. I n saw Mr. Rush
dressed with a cloak, except on that occasion. In the see-
vaate-hall-passage I picked up a paper, which I threw
down again without reading it. iam unable to lay whether
the pistols I have mentioned were double or single barreled.
Ido not know bow Mr. Jermy came into the porch. Mr.
Jenny was in the habit of going out of the frent-door after
he had taken his wine. He was in the habit of dining at
six, and of leaving the dinittg.room g. nerally a little after
eight He generally remained out two or three minutes,
then came in and went into the drawins-room. This habit
was so common that other persons might know of it. The front
door wasgenerelly locked at dark. Mr. Jermy had to unlock
and relock the door himself. I have no doubt that Mr.
Jermy went out on that occasion, as was hie accustomed
cramps. On the Sunday evening rrovious Mr. Jermy did
see Mr. Rash. I showed him into the room, and left them
together. There was no other person present. I heard Mr.
Rash leave the house about five minutes after I had shown
him Into the room. I did not see him. I heard nothing that
paned between them. I did not see Mr. Rush after that
until I saw the men in the passage on the Tuesday night,
who I believe to have been Mr. Rush.

The witness was then MOM relative to the death of
Mr. Jenny, jun., and gave precisely the same evidence,
except as regards the fik-Wnt H. the body of Mr. Isaac
Jenny.
Margaret Read, cook at Stanfield Hall, stated : On Tues-
day evening, the 28th Nov., about a quarter put eight
o'clock, I beard the report of a pistol proceeding from the
front of the house, the porch, or from that direction. After
hearing the report, the young person who was sitting with
me in the servants' hall ran oat. The window is in the
Rent of the servants' hall. I did not leave the servants'
ball. I then heard a second report, a third report, and then
a tooth revert. The reports followed each other very
quekly. There was a very short space of time intervened
between the first and mood reports. Sufficient time elapsed
between the first and second reports for a person amounted
to the house to have left the porch, gone to the side door,
along the passage to the door leading into the Marines ball.
It is my business to lock the side door, and it is not locked
until nine o'clock. On Tuesday night I bad not locked that
deer before I heard the report of the pistols. It was net
nine o'clock. After I beard the last report I went to the
doer of the servants' hall leading to the passage of the stoic-
cue hall. I did not leave the door. I Men saw Mu
Isabella Jenny within a few yards of the door, running along
the passage towards the servants' hall. When she
reached the place where I wee standing, I saw
a man coming towards me down the passage. He
was near the foot of the back stain. I remained at the
servants' hall door. There was a light there, but it
did not show any light on his face, u the greater light was
at his back, at the top of the paasegst. There was quite eut-
&Mt light for me to distinguish Miss Jermy from the men.
Mies Jew was near to nu, and I had a better opportunity
etelinsrdeg her than I had the man. Icm describe the
laarrof the man. There was quite sufficient
or me to observe and describe his general
eppearaese, sod his dress. I did not see his
hoe. The INlMaai I saw him it struck me it was
Mr. Ralik WY bad very frequently within the last five
maths bees et the hall. The man was coming in the direct
time et the servants' hall, and before he gotta the passage
leading ho the side 'stream I left the door with Miss Jenny,
and de wet know what became of the man. The man was
dressed in • Mee garment. I cannot say whether it was a
cloak. It had a small mpg. His right hand was down by his
side, and lied rathmii=spistol or
an a short gun in it. I
did not chum the of his left hand. The m was
short and Meat. e held his head a little on one side, just
in the way Mr. Ruth el s carries it, and had apparently a
very short neck. It struck me the moment I saw him
from his form and his carriage that it was Mr. Rush. I
I
did not speak to him, nor did see his face, as there was not
sufficient light for me to do so. I have had frequent op-
portunities since I ease to the ball of seeing Mr. Rush, and
know him in person quite wall. I never saw say man either
connected with Stanfield hall or elsewhere like Mr. Rush. In
my own mind I think it is impoeuble I can be mistaken in
my opinion. I had such an opportunity of seeing his person
that I cannot be mistaken, although I cannot, from not
having sem his face, positively swear that it was he. When
Him Jenny Came up to me, she was screaming, and s ud,
"Bless me, get out of the way, or we shed all b murdered."
—By a juror : I left the door with hies Jermy before the
man had arrived up the passer leading to the side entrance.
The garmect the man had on did not reach below his
knees.

The witness was then sworn is the case of Mr. Jenny
Jermy, which wee, of course, precisely the same u chi
above.

Maria Slanchanwer, nurse to Mrs. lermy, stated :
Oa the evating of Tuesday, the 28th inst., she heard the
report offour snots. one after each other. She did not know
erectly what time it was, but it was about 8 o'clock. She
was in the nursery. The nursery is at the end of the house,
looking town Is the stable. After hesriag the fourth report
I ran down stein. Oa getting to the bottom of the stain
I ran toward. the servants' hall. When I got to the servants'
hall door, having heard a footstep, I turned round and saw
a man coming in the same direction as I had been, between
the foot of the stain and the passage leading towards the

side entrance. I did not me Mies Jenny or the cook. I ran
as fast se I maid. The man who followed me was a low
stoat man. Ido not know whether I ever saw the man be-
fore. 1 have only been a mouth at Stanfield Hall. When
I went beck to the nuewry Mn. Jermy was there, wounded.
I did not see the man afterwards.
After some conversation, the Coroner adjourned the covet
until ten o'clock on the following intoning.
On Saturday the Coroner and jury re assembled at the
King's Heed Inn, to further prosecute the iequiry. To
as ist the jury in fully comprehending the evidence in m-
imeos to the position of the different apartments of Stan-
field Hall, a large ground plan of the mansion was produced
pointing out the gots where the unfortunate gentlemen were
shot, and Mrs. Jersey and her maid were wounded.—The
jay being aseenthlul, some time elapsed before the constables
who had collected the evidence made their appearanoe. It
was said that they were engaged at • private sitting of the
magistrates, who were investigating some important addr
Lionel fans. At length Mr. Witberford, the superintendent,
arrived, and stated that the magistrates had desired him to
emirs the jury that the botch were anxious to afford the
court every facility. It should be stated that the Coroner
had on the previour evening sent a summons to the House of
Correction for the secured Rush ; but having been remanded
till that morning by the magistrates for re-examination, the
prisoner could not be produced.
Solomon Savoy, a lad, was then called and examined—l
have been in the service of Mr. James Rush, at Potash
Farm, since Aust last. He is married, and, with his wife,
resides there. Besides me there were two female servants;
one cf them left last Monday in consequence of illness. Mr.
James Bloomfield Rush, the person in custody on suspicion
of committing the murder, resided occasionally at the farm.
His strut residence was at Felmingham ; for the last fort-
night he has been stopping at the Potash farm. I saw Mr.
Rush, men., about the farm on Tuesday until half-past five
o'clock. It was his general habit when he came in to pull
off his boots and put on his slippers. I cleaned his boots on
Tuesday night, and put them sgainst the fire to dry. They
were standing in the same place the next morning. I 'Met
to bed on Tuesday night between eight and nine o'clock. I
have omitted to state that two labourers in the service of Mr.
Rush slept on the premises, but not in the portion where Mr.
Rusb slept. There is no possibility of hearing any one going
out of the house in the course of the night. Mr. and Mies
hush were absent from the farm that night. They
lett the house the day before (Monday) ; where they went
to I do not know. [lt is said they attended Madams
Dtileken's concert at Norwich )
By a Juror—There is also another person living in the
house, a lady ; she has been there about a fortnight Some
say she is a governess. She is dressed like a widow. Cannot
say it she acted as housekeeper. She sleeps in a room adjoin-
ing Mr. Rush's chamber.
Rumination in chief continued—l got up between five
end six o'clock on Wednesday mo:niog. I was called by the
tea= man, who had got up rather earlier than myself, and
who then told me that the polies wanted to see Mr. Arch.
I came down and saw the police, to whom I spoke, and I
then went and called Mr. Rush. I went up stairs and
knocked against the wall of his bedroom. I said, " I want
to speak to you if you please, sir." I repeated tho words
two or three times. He did not reply, but knocked, show-
ing I was heard. I then went round to the front of the
house and rang the front-door bell. Mr. Rush tame to the
window and said, " What do you want ?" I sold, " Mr.
Pont (the policeman) is here, and has irked me to come and
tell you that a very serious thing has taken place at Stan-
field-hall, and that Mr. Cann, the magistrate, had desired
him (Pout) to let you know." He raid, " I will be down
directly." He came down and remarked, " What is the
matter ?" Seeing the police, he exclaimed, " Walk in."
They din so, and I walked out.
At this stage of the proceedings it was intimated to the
coroner that a mask had been found in the house of Mr.
Rush, but the fact was not confirmed by any witnesses
called. The coroner inquired of Mr. Yamngton, the chief
constable of the Norwich force, if such an itlllllltant disco-
very had been nude Yarrington raid no.
A Mrs. Shoxted had stated, it was alleged, amongst her
friends and neighbours that she had sold a mask within
the last few days to a person answering the description of
Rush. He had been to her with a view of eliciting her state-
ment and bringing her up to give evidence, when she denied
all knowledge of the transaction, and added she knew no-
thing at all about it.
Elizeeth Cooper, of East Carleton, was next examined.
On Tuesday evening, about hall-put five o'clock, she met
the secured near the gate of Stanfield Hall. He stopped
her and said "Do you belong to the hall ? " She said.
"No; but I have Just come from there." He then said,
"Do you know if Mr. Jermy is at home i" She replied,
" Yes, Or, he is at home. I saw them both about half an
hour ago, going to the men who are planting." lie then
went on aorta a field..

John Mortar, a constable in the Norwielipolice fora,
on the night of Tuesday last, in consequence of information
forwarded to Norwich, I, with several other officers, was seat
to Stanfield Hall. We reached the hall about baltput ona
o'clock, when I, with eight others, were despatched to a
place called Potash farm, which we were ordered to watch.
We so placed ourselves round the premises as to command a
strict new of every point. About a quarter put six o'clock
in the morning I:saw Mr Rush (whom I knew personally)
pass out of his bedroom with a candle, and open the back
door. I instantly went in, and laying hold of Rush by the
arm, said, " You are my prisoner," and my brother officers
handcuffed him. While doing so, Pont, the constable, said,
" The two 111 r. Jennys have been shot, and you are stagnated
. of doing it". Rush said, " Good God, 1 hope they don't
I suspect me !" We tkentook him into his bedroom and corn-
mewed searching the place. On the bed I found a
r cloak, which I now produce. (It is a dark blue
cloth opera cloak, having a cape and black velvet
collar.) In the course of the search Rush said
to me, " What time did the affair take place ? " I made no
answer. In a minute or so he said, " I understand it was
done a little after 8 o'clock." I said, "From whom, air, did
you learn that."—Coroner : Yon bad ne right to put that
question, ar I can't take it es evidence. The judge* have
laid it down that no man can be Invited to criminate himself
without being duly cautioned.—Witness: I asked him that
because I was certain that he had not heard it —Coroner : I
can't take the reply under the circumstances : it is not evi-
dence. (The answer of Rush was, " Oh, some of the police
told me.") What followed after ?—Witness : He said. " I
should have been there last night about that time, had I not
understood that young Mr. Jermy was at home." He
added, " The young man is a great enemy of mine, but
the old gentleman and me are better friends than we for-
Needy were."
Thomas Osborne, inspector of the Norwich police, was
next examined, and deposed as follows :—I was at Potash
Farm when Rush was taken into custody, and after the
search I was ordered by my superintendent to take charge
of him while he nartook of his breakfast at his dwelling, A
woman dressed in widow's weeds prepared the meal. Rush
said to the woman, " I am accused of murdering Mr. Jermj
and his son, but that scoundrel Clark (deceased's attorney;
has done this ; it is he that has caused me to be ruspette
but you and Savory can clear me, as Savory saw me a: half-
pest 5, and you know I did not go out." He paused for a
few moments, and again addressed the female: " Did they
ask you any questions ?" She said, " They asked me if yots
went out." He said," They had no right to ask you an
questions. What did you them ?" She answered, " I
said you went out between 8 and 9 for a quarter of an hour,"
He said, " I was not out ten minutes," She answered, " I
could not tell for a minute or two." He then said, " Yon
know I had my clip shoes on." She said, " I don't know
whether you had them on or not." Rush then asked me which
was the one (policeman) below stairs who named the time the
murders were done. I said, " Net a word of that eon was
mentioned by any one of them." He said, " I have no
doubt I shall be suspected, because we have lived on such
bad terms, but latterly the old one and me have been more
friendly. The young one was my greatest enemy." He
afterwards remarked, " What is the meaning they won't
allow me my cloak ? I want to put it on. Do you know
what they have got against me ?"—I replied, " No ; we are
sent by Mr. Cann, the magistrate, to apprehend you, and
that is all I know of the affair."
Stephen Amiss, inspector of polite force at Norwich, was
called. After arriving at Stanfield hall, on Tuesday night,
I received instructions from Mr. Cann, the magistrate, to
proceed to Mr. Rush's farm, and at 6 o'clock I gave three-
tient he should he called. Rush shorgy came to the
door, with a candle in his hand. The moment he
opened the door he was seised by Pont, the officer,
who said, " Consider yourself a prisoner. You are
charged with murdering Mr. Jermy and hie son."
—Rush said, "Thank God, I em out of that; how
can they suspect me As Pont was planing the handcuffs on
him, he said, " That fellow Clark has done this." We
went up stairs with the prisoner to search the apartments.
In a drawer in his bedroom I found a powdereask and diet-
/we, and In • cupboard in the same room another powder-
flask. thetbelt, and a pocket dark lantein. During the
search Rush said to Mortar, the first witness, " What time
did the affair happen ?" After a minute's pause, he added,
t• One of the police told me a little after eight." Up to
that moment I am sure the time the murders were com-
mitted had net been mentioned in the presence of the pri-
soner. If it had I must have heard it, for I was with the
prisoner all the time. He said, " I should have gone to the
hall last evening, but htariag young Mr. Jimmy was there
I did not go, as he was my enemy." (The lantern is a
portable one, and so small and compact es to be carried in
the trouser. pocket with little inconvenience, and had evi-
dently been recently and, and had two small wax tapers
an ing oule fixed in it. They ware partly burned down,)
Robert Thompson, another inspector of police, who also
assisted in searching Rush'. house, was next called, and
proved finding a tin box containing five leaden bullets and a
gum, ity of cap+. In a large trunk were found two double
barrelled guns. Priem, told them (the officers) to be are as they were loaded and capped. (The guns were pro-
duced, and their contents removed; they contained large
charges of powder and small shot.)
Mr. W. Stanley, a merchant, residing at Wymondhain,
deposed to proceeding to the hall on hearing of the deplor-
able event. He found the servants very much alarmed, and
in the passage picked up a paper written upon, which he
prodneed. It was to the following effect •
There la wren ores here. Three of us outside and four inside the
hall, all armed as you see as two. If any of you servants offer to
leave the yeanless, or to follow, you will be shot dead. Therefore, all
you keep in the servants' hall, and you nor say one else will take any
harem, fot we are only cane to Wks powwow of the Stanfield Hall
property.—TßOKAS JIMMY. the MOM

(The writing is evidently feigned. It was on the cover of
an old account-book. There was another paper found,
but at present it has not been produced. The witness who
found it not as yet being called.)
The Coroner here sent to the Bridewell for the female
known as the Widow James, presumed to be Rosh's house-
keeper. Too messenger soon returned, and stated that she
could not attend as she wu still under examination, and
furtner, that the magistrates could not forward any of the
wiinesses for the present.
Toe Coroner said since the commencement of the day's
pv.ceedings he bad learned that the magintrates had deter-
mined not to sanction the prisoner's attendance before him.

be done under the Treasury by a clerk or two in the
Castle. Yesterday Sir James Dombrain proceeded
to England, and the department, of which be was
the head—the Irish Coast Ouard service—will be
transferred to London also. The office of Irish secre-
tary to the Posi-celos will exist no more, Mr. Oodby
having retired au full allowance. The head of the

Beard of Works has bees weeded to a very great ex-

The permanent staff, and two or three parties whose
servioes are valuable in various department., alone
