TRIAL AND CONVICTION OF JOHN DIGOLES TOR TTIR
INHOMA V MURDER OP BENJAMIN CASS AND ALICE. We
WIEE, IT KNOCRINO THEU OX THE HEAD WITH A
POKER.
On IVednesday evening it was arranged by his Lordship that the
prisoner should be put nn hie trial at half-past eight o'clock on the
following morning. At an early hoar the Court, which is a large
and spacious one, was crowded an excess. On his Lordship enter-
ing it, the prisoner' was Ordered to be put the bar ; everrele was
inuantly turned utton him, and such was the silence that you might
have heard a ;tin drop. He locked flint and w.daunted, and there
wae. more of simplicity his manner than any nay might hire ex-
pected fora person re-signed ter arch an atre,ioUlo4rvtir... ilia

iamb:nee of death noon him, lib check. (if any alleretion was
visible)were redder at the end of the trial than when he 41:4 brought
to the bar.
Mr. WILLIAMS and Mr. TINDAL conducted the cam on the
part of the Crown.
When the Clark of the Arraigns had read the indictment,
Mr. Wit.l.Teete rose.-11.14 it rot been for one circumstance, be
should have stared the cape w;thmit a single comment ; but in the
case of the unfortunote person at the bar, who mood alone and un-
'Witted, without any professional advice, it behoved him to imarem
upon the Jury the necessity of laving amide a!! erejudice that they
might have received from the public prints, which, he was sorry to
have occasion to remark, had indulged in statement* against the
prisoner, highly unfavourable to his case. As regarded himself,
he deemed it wholly out of his line of duty to make one single oh.
serration against him, for it was from the ev'tlence alone that the
Jury must come to a conclusion respecting his innocence or his
guilt. He trusted that he (the prisoner) would be able to eetablish
the former, and it would give hint greater pleasure to see this than
any triumph he could obtain from his conviction. Nut only the
public press had magnified the case against the prisoner, but the
whole neighbourhood had caught the contagion. If, howeverohe
Jury had received any such impression, they owed it to justice and
to humanity to dismiss it front their minds. By the law of the land
the prisoner was supposed to be innocent until he had been proved
guilty. The Learned Gentleman then went through the leading
features of the evidence, and concluded by saying, that a, the un-
happy man at the bar was without legal advice, his Lordahip
would watch over the case, and render him that powerful moist-
ance which his pecuniary means denied him. The Learned (lee-
Orman then called

blunt instrument like a poker ; he thought the poker would pro-
duce it. The fractures *tie the cause of their deaths. There was
no cut on the female's heed. There was a cut on the arm. There
were several on the man. The end of the nun of the man was cut
off. The cuts on the man did not cause his death.
