street, 11lackfnars-road. The family consisted of Mr. Gregory, his
wife, and eight children, six of whom, and Mr. G. !Italia had
just finished breakfast, when two of the elder sous, the one named
George, came in, and were kit by their father to prepare their own
repast, while he went into the shop on business. Just previous to
their coming, one of the younger boys, who had risen from table,
asked his father far more Wald, and butter, which he couddeting
complete wantonness, refused him. During the father's absence,
the boy sought to obtain from his brother George that which his
father had denied him. He succeeded ; and the brother was pro-
ceeding to the cupboard, with the intent to cut him another slice,
when the father re-entered the room, and endeavoured to present
the infraction of his orders, by keeping the door of the cupboard
closed with his band; and then it was, that, infuriated at the oppo-
sition, the unnatural son plunged the pointed table-knife he 'held
in his hand into the body of Ins parent, on the left side close to the
groin. The wounded father, streaming with blood, staggered to a
wag in the shop, exelsiming, " Oh! George, you havelnlifn aline
I fear you'll suffer for this." Surgical aid was instantly resorted
to, when a prompt removal to the hospital was determined on, and
he was conveyed to Guy's, where he remains in a most dangerous
state. The son is nowt yet in custody.
