papers sad dommonts which hod bees head. Why, he
would wk, hag some of the witnesses whose names speared

favour ? The use am, he contended, had been can-

the jury to feel maisliall that they would not be
led away by the aides= for the prosecution. Look
at the evidence of Emily Sandford : she had stated that
after the Rut she had not undergone any other private
exualeations. Wi.y she was with that fellow Cum for two
hours; at a time, too, when he (Cann) had all his (the pri-
soner's) papers. Ili the evidence they would find that Cana
took notes, yet he was told that that was not an examina-
tion. He (the prisoner) maintained that it was. The depo-
sitions were signed like the others. In giving her evidence,
Sandford said she was told by Mr. Cann to recollect that she
was on her oath, and that she said she knew she was on her
oath. Bo they might talk for a week. He maintained that
the evidence was as good as any other. His ran were
taken away by the persons who were getting up the pram
cation, end made the worst use of. Now, with regard to
the documents which bad been brought forward,
Mr. Jemmy's name, it was preposterous to suppose tiiaitt
was over intended to make nee of them. Mr. Jere 's
name was so well known that nobody would have taken the
one on the document for his. A document had been
takes from his papers which would have shown
that it was to his interest that Mr. Jenny should live.
The Flamm thee proceeded: Gentlemen of the jury, I
think I can show you that the evidence is all fibs from be-
ginning to end ; but I trust you will not place any reliance
upon it, or apes the reports which have appeared* some
of the sewspapas. Consider, gentlemen, the situation lam
placed in, and en& er also how many thins, which might
not otherwise be mentioned or thought of hive been turned
sad twisted me. Bear that in mind, gentlemen, and
as Gel Aketghty knows all that is going on here, I trust he
will anabis yea to come to a right conclusion. Emily Sand-
ford's mildews was all &Ise. Was It at all likely that I
should have asked a well-educated woman like her to be a
party to seek forgeries, which were utterly useless, and which
the essamoneet cheerier neat have detected ? Poor thing,

ask again, was she not milled, in order that I
creei-examine her ? Upset my honour, it is a case of
swearing from beginning to end; and his kalship and the
weasel for the prosecution know it very well. If I had
committed these horrible murders, I could never have looked
anybody in the bee; and God Almighty kaows, that if I
was guilty, I could not stand hers so long to plead my *m-
