feudant's gardei, a fortnight before Whitsuntide;
lsn,e, the only time she had bees, in the garden ;
it was betweti eight mid nine'o'clock in the eveu-
ing, not very dark ; it took place in the seamier-
house; she was walking with her little nephew,
noly two years of age, when she was persuaded by
the Defentlatit• to enter the garden. It never ee-
Cuffed but twice--noce in her own room, and in
the garden. She never left her room door open to
receive the Defendant ; no other person ever took
the souse liberties with her ; she was not allowed to
walk out after dark ; she genenilly walked in
the rope-walk; she never walked-with the defend-
Imes brother after twelve o'clock at night; her
mother never complained of her conduct, and
never said. she was as had as a common street-
walker. When her mother found out her tibia-
time site said she was unfortunate, but not crimi-
nal. On the de-,,ht of her misfortune the servant
sat tip to cleats the parlour; she used to sleep in
the witness 'e room, but not the same bed. Th.:
Defendant took the opportunity of Coming in;,'
the room—she wasin bed—used all the reSistat,,-;
she possibly could—screamed out, sod insole art
alarm for twenty minutes ; her parents slept in the
story below. The Defendant said if she persisted
in making an alarm, she would only expose him
and herself; and threatened, that if she spoke of
what land passed between them, he would forsake
her fur ever.
Serirout dill not call witnesses for the De.
&woa, but relied on the improbability of Meal
Bartiett's story. Ite described her eridettee to
trowel-thy of credit, and contended that the Jury
ought not to find more than nomitiel ditina-4es.
The J ury, after a deliberation of one hots:, found
a verdict for the Plaiotiff—Danteges 101.
