Mr. William Buncombe, 30, MydcUeton-road, West
Brompton, son of the deceased, said that be had not seen
his father for seven or eight years past, owing to family
differences. He lived in the Tottenbam-oourt-road, and

time that "Jobs Ittumombe, a retired surgeon," wes
there. But witawn made no inquiries, for dammed was
quite estranged hem his family. Witness knew nothing
at all about him

Mr. J. Horstall, house surgeon, said that deceased was
' brought in on the 26th April, suffering from erysipelas.
He said that it arose from an injury reoeived in a railway
accident two days previously. He stated that he was in
a second clam carriage at the Swindon station of the
Great Western Railway, and that a goods' train came
into collision with it while it was being shunted on to
another line, sad he received a serious injury to his area.

that he had met with his injury through driving to his
former lodgings in Percy-street, Tottenham-court-road,
and when he arrived there drunk he would not pay the
cabman his fare, and a row took place. Some struggling
ensued, and ultimately ho was driven to Bow-street police
station.

The Coroner said that there were three different ver-
sions, two of them by the deceased himself, as to the
manner in which his fatal injury was received. If the
jury thought there would be any use in adjourning the
case to try and get further evidence, he would adjourn
it ; if not, they could return an open verdict.
The jury, after some deliberation, returned a verdict
" that deceased died from erysipelas ; but how, or under
what circumstances, the erysipelas was caused there was
no evidence to show."

EITB-dORDINARY CASE OF MARSLAUOHTEE.

INQUEST.—(THIS DAY.)
This morning Mr. Richards, deputy-coroner,
held an inquiry, at the King and Queen Tavern, Three
Colt-street, Limehouse, respecting the death of a man
named Richard Blakey, aged 33, who, it was alleged, had
been killed by the kicks of a young woman named Milli-
cent Wall, with whom he cohabited.
The deceased was a waterman and lighterman, and
lived at Maldon-court, Limehouse. It appears that some
nights ago quarrelsome words, arising out of a trivial
circumstance, passed between them, and the deceased,
who was not sober, increased the woman's anger by ap-
plying an opprobrious epithet to her. She then imme-
diately sprang out of bed, and, with her bare foot kicked
him in the stomach. He gave an exclamation of pain, but
made no particular complaint of injury till the next day,
when his sufferings became so excruciating that Dr. Brun-
ton was sent for. He died two days after in great agony.
Dr. Brunton said that he made a post-mortem exami-
nation of the body of the deceased by the coroner's order.
He found severe injuries to the abdomen ; there was rup-
ture, and the internal organs had received serious legions.
Those injuries had been caused by external violence, and
were the cause of death.

Dr. Brunton was closely questioned by the jury as to
whether such severe injuries could have been caused by a
kick from the naked foot. He said that he should have
regarded the affair as improbable but that there was no
doubt of the fact in this mos. The kick might have been
given by the heel.
Millicent Wall, who said she was &I years of age,
was examined after being duly cautioned. She
said that the deceased used bad language towards her, and
she jumped out of bed, and in doing so kicked him as
already described. She did not intend to iajure him.
A witness said that deceased was so given to drink that
even when he earned SI. in a week he drank SI, of it. Mil-
licent Wall was a sober well-conducted young woman.
The coroner having summed up, the jury returned •
verdict of "Manslaughter against Millicent Wall; and
the jury taking into consideration the great provocation
received by the laid Millicent Wall desire strongly to re.
commend her to mercy."
The coroner said he would take bad for the accused if
she thought she could procure it. The accused said she
thought her former employers would become bail for her.
