in the oils by her husband. Samuel, at two o'clock
the sonic morning at Bilston, died at the house of
her brother, where she took refuge from her hus-
band's violence. She did not desire to see her towhee/I,
although he was, of course, present when her deposition
was taken, nor cliff she speak to him or of him afterwards.
She died saying, " Oh, mother, mother!" Her mother has
been a long time dead. She frequently spoke of her
children, anal seemed much concerned about her future
state. The prisoner wee appealed to by the deceased, when
her deposition was taken, whether she had ever done any-
thing to merit such treatment during all her wedded life
(Ahern %ears). He replied, "No. my wench, thou hasn't?'
He has 'said the same in the lockup, where be seems to be
in • desponding state. frequently moaning, "Oh, say wife ;
oh, my poor children."
