CoRoNER'S INQUEST.

THE REV WILLIAM TINDAI.L•
Yesterday, at twelve o'clock, a Coroner's In-
"leg was held at toe public house, called the Gol-
den ("rain, within the Tower of London, on the
body of the Rev William Tindall, chaplain of the
Tower, who shot himself on Sunday lag, at his
house on the Parade iii that fortress.

The unfortunate deceased, for some time put,
had .hewn evident symptoms of derangement iu
mind : he was much atistraded, and frequently fell
into the deepest melancholy ; but latterly th.se
symptoms increased to an alarming degree. At one
time, he fancied some person had misrepresented
him to the Duke of York ; and he wrote a very
incoherent epistle to His Royal Highness on the
subrp. _

Colonel Smitlh, Governor of the Tower, was ex-
amined before the Jury. He stated, that on the
mornin of Sunday last, he was waited on by the
deceased, to request leave of absence. Me com-
plained much of an indisposition, which he de-
scribed as a most unaccountable sensation, such as
he had never before experienced. He chiefly com-
plained 41 great depression of spirits, and an un-
quenchable thirst ; he said he was going to the coun-
try, which, he was sure, would br of great use to
him. The C. lonel described .him as a man of the
most exemplary piety, amiable manners, and up-
right principles ; he was an affeetionate husband, and
a sincere friend. esteemed and reopened by a
large circle of friends and relations ; he was not more
beloved for his private chanteter, than admired for
those elegant acquirements which always grace the
getoleinan. He was about 51 years of age, and
had been five y rars Chaplain to the Tower. The
Colonel farther said, that a must scandalous and
malicittus misrepresentation of the cause of this
melancholy catastrophe had been spread abroad by
some At-named persons. who imputed it to miscon-
duCt on the part of Mrs. T. ; a more gross false-
hood could nut be imagined. She was a woman of
the most amiable disp..sition and manners, and, in
every reopen, of the most unimpeached character.
She and the deceased lived together in the most cor-
dial affeetion and harmony, nor were there the
slightest groreds for such vile insinuations. At the
time this s:tac'.ing event tot:k place, she was at her
aunt's, about a mile from Exeter, which place he
was to have set out It r, to join her on that day.
A female set ',ant of the deceased stated, that
she bad observed her master much agitated on that
trorning ; he committed many inconsistencies, and
talked very incoherently ; he went out, and returned
eery frequently in the course of the morning. He
was to have sit out for the country after dinner, and
had his clothes packed up for that purpose ; the
carriage was iu waiting, and while the dinner was
p• eparing, about half-past two. he went up to his
hed chamber; shortly after she heard the report
of a pistol, but as no otie was in the house at the
time, hot herself, she waited till some person came
i•. They proceeded to the roam, where they found
the body lying contradeil en th... floor; the scull,
from the tnp of the nix to the back part of the
head, was entirely blown off, and the fragments of
bone a d brains were scattered to the extremities
of the room. When the jury went to examine the
body, the pistol was discovered on the hearth, at
a considerable distance from the hod) ; it was what
is generally termed a musqueteon, the barrel made
of bra.s, and shaped like a blunderbuss; it had
been heavik cherged M ith slugs, a number of which
were found about the room, and some had peace
Crated the ceiling.
The jury, without hesitation, brought in a verclin
of Lisattey.
