her Majesty a slight blow with a thin etch, bat he added

Oa being searched there were found upon the prisoner two
keys and a pocket handkerchief. No money or weapon of
say kind was discovered.
In order to correet an erroneous impression very likely to
prevail after reading the ezeggerated reports which ap-
peared in the evening papers, it may be well to state that the
small Mirk with whisk the :tam struck the blow was not

his bills with great panctuality. Hie father was described
