the witness observed it was too early; upon which
they both went out at the front gate, and separated.
The witness soon returned, and went into the hall,
and found the deceased standing in a corner of the
roam. He asked bun what was the nastier with
him, and instantly perceived blood flowing from
his side, which alarmed him so much that he ras
out; on going rieross the yard, he met Mr. Patte,
the cook, whoiu he iofornied of the circum-
stance, and asked him to go to the hall with
him, which he declined. The witness went
to the gee, and alarmed Mr. Wright, the night-
porter, who instantly proceeded with the witness
towards the hall ; pit their way they heard the re.
port of a pistol, which Wright ,ibirerretl," By G—d
it is a tl.aul shot." tie had been a serjeant in the
army. On entering the hall, they perceived the
