" Perk-road, Oct. 16, 1853.
" Deamt Emma (the Emma in the centre of a pea and
ink sketch of a heart),—l am sorry I shall not have the
felicity of your company to-day, and stall more grieved to
hear that your side is no better. I have sent you a powder,
which I hope you will have no objection to take. It would
be better to put it dry on your tongue at bed time, and
apply another mustard poultice, then I shall be glad to hear
that you are quite cured to-morrow. If it does not get
better in a day or two, I should ask for a leave of 'Aswan
to recruit your health, whish I believe your present occu-
pation has fully uadermined. I have scarcely known how
to pass away the dull and tedious hours. Ending now has
no charms for me. I would rather shift muck ca the line
than stii.k here all day. ' Otheilo'e occupation's gone.' I
shall remember with pleasure the many dull hours I have
passed sweetly away in your company, and I begin to find
that making love is better than sitting here all day by my-
self. Hoping soon to see you restored to the, best health,
I remain yours affectionately, " ALBERT."
" Dearest Emma,—l am happy to say my cold is a little
better, but lam not quite right yet. I have beta very doll
all day, and I wish Croydon Fair was at the d— I. I have
just made up a roaring fire, and I am going to drown all
m cares in brandy and water. I should smokes cigar, bat
y I have no cap to put on. I have emptied three tumblers
over this letter already, so that if it is much longer I shall
get tight I think. Caulfield has been here to-day, but I
forget now. I only wish your pretty face was here to
enliven me up a bit. I think 1 shall have you Liken up for
forgery, which you will see you have committed if you look
'at the letter I have enclosed. My head begins to get con-
fused, so that I cannot say much more. I hope no noisy
individual will disturb your sweet repose to-night, and
trust yen will remember me in your dreams.—Believe me,
dearest Emma, yotu's affectionately, "ALBERT:'
" Dearest Albert,-1 write you a few Bees this morning,
fearing you might have thought me unkind for not calling
epos you some time in the course of the day. This morn-
ing, as you are aware, was fully taken up with my music
lessors. The afternoon proved wet, which caused me to
slay in doors. I hope to see you to-morrow morning, if
the weather proves fine. Send me a line, that I may know
how you are, for if it is in the least damp to-morrow I
shall not be out, in consequence of the baby being so un-
well. Iliell you not felt dull to-day, or have you enjoyed
your retirement ? Please send my love to Rosa Maitlar.d,
if you have not written. Excuse my tan and imperfections,
and believe me, my dearest Albert, your ever affectioreas
"Elgin."
Amongst the documents found is the female. prisoner's
possession was a certificate from the Committee of Council
of Education, dated February 28, 1851, and from it it would
appear that the prisoner had served one year as mistress of
the Tendring Parochial School, Essex, for which she re-
ceived the munificent no of 81. And in this document
she is described as Mrs. Bedell. In this document, which
is a printed form, several erasures and emendations, in the
handwriting of the prisoner, appear, and some of them are
of a ludicrous character. For instance, when the qualifica-
tions are given opposite to the words, " Grammar," "His-
tory," and " Geography," " good" is written ; and in the
margia appear, evidently in the prisoner's handwriting,
" French translation, perfect. Natural history, good.
Algebra, good. Composition, excellent. Derivation of the
Angolo-Saxon words, correct. Music, good. Singing,
good." Owing to the absence of a intmen formerly in the
service of Mr. Shepheard, who was in the habit of carrying
messages and different articles between the parties, and who
it was thought was purposely kept out of the way, the offi-
cers requested a further remand.
Mr. Belinda' hoped his client would be at least admit-
ted to bail, and assured the magistrate that, from his in-
structions, he verily believed that Cramer had been made
the ignorant dupe and victim of the other artful releaser.
His friends, he said, were of the highest respectability, and
were prepared to give bail to any reasonable amount.
Mr. Norton admitted that it was in Cramer's favour that
there appeared a disparity of at least 10 years ; but the
female prisoner said it did not exceed 5, at the most—
a declaration which caused much laughter.
The prisoners were ultimately remanded; but Cramer
was admitted to bail.
