John Fibboos alias Maloney, • muscular, morose book-
ies fellow. amidenorter from the 10th hussars, wee indicted for
the following diabolical assault.
The prosecutor, who spoke with great difficulty in cense-
MISIIO4I of the fearful nature of the injury prisoner had in-
tided upon him, deposed that on the 3rd inst., he was at
the Orange Tree public house, at Colney Hatch, in company
with several companions, labouring men, and the F dinner,
WWI was a stranger to them all, was also present. He
sminened a dictatorial tone towards the whole company, and
silence to allow of an Irishman singing a song.
retrrenstutor) said he would exert himself to procure
slisses upon which the prisoner charged him with interfer-
ing with what did net concern him, and in an instant
he took off his coat, sad commenced beating him.
He resisted as well as he could, but the prisoner threw him
upon the floor, and giving a loud yell, be immediately threw
hinselt upon him. The next minute he rose with his face
besmeared with blood, and called the attention of the em-
ploy to something he held between his teeth. Having
dine so, he spat it into his hand, and then threw it upon the
table, saying, "D— your eyes, look there." The proem
for was assisted no, when his face presented a dreadful ap-
pearance, his under lip having been completely bitten off by
the prisoner. It was the lip that the prisoner had so exult-
ingly held between his teeth and thrown upon the table ;
and so shocked were all present at what bad taken place,
that they fell upon the prisoner, secured him, and handed
his over to a ecinetable.
Several *imams gave corroborative testimony, and the
lip was produced, it having been preserved in spirits. There
was a marked expression of disgust as it was exhibited in
court.
The prisoner said he was drunk at the time and knew
nothing about the affair, but as it had been sworn that he
bit off** lip he supposed it was true.
The jury _toned the plower Guilty.
The lea Judge said that a more ruffianly, savage, yet
cowardly outrage he had never heard of. It was worse than
the " gouging' system in America.
A sergeant of the 10th Hussars here said that the prisoner
was a deserter heat that regiment, and when released by
the civil authorities he would be tried by a court-martial for
the desertion.
The learned Judge then sentenced the prisoner to sir
mouths' hard labour, remarking that he was not awry that
after that period be would be further punished by the mili-
' tary authorities. He was a disgrace to humanity.
