in the face, and his manner was altogether strange. While

Ana Lynn examined by Dlr. Svonces-1 am sister to the last
whoa* and the prisoner at the bar. On the Monday before my
brother went to Liverpool, I saw him at my mother's house, lie,

Ann Taylor, servant to Mr. Newman, of the White Lion at
Brickhill, deposed to the inconsistency and wildness of the pri-
senees conduct there.
Anthony and Mary Bradshaw, of Brickhill, proved that on the
night of the sth of Jar.uary the prisoner came to their house in a
wild and insane state, and was received into the house, he having
hreatened to burst in it they did not admit him. They let him re.
sown there for the night ; and they could not sleep, believing they
had a madman in the home.
Lord Nugent was examined, and detailed at great length his con.
werwitions with the prisoner in the gaol relative to the transaction
and it was his firm belief that he was labouring under strong mental
deLasion.
Sir John D4shwood sing, Bart., Magistrate of the county of
&aka, was of a similar opinion.
Mr. Haywood, surgeon to the gaol at Aylesbury, stated his
epic* to be, that .he man was at the present moment in a state of
le sae ity.
Dr. Francis Willis proved, from the circumstances of the pri.
sense's case, that he had been seized with the incipient symptoms
irbich precede insanity, end was now actually insane.
This was the defence.
Mr. Justice Oasse LZS at six o'clock commenced his charge to

Dime o'clock we received the verdict of the Jury, finding the pri-
ia.ner Guilty, but that be was insane at the time of committing
the murder.
