THE MURDERER DEAN.

The fallowing are particulars of the conduct of R. Dean,
prior and subsequent to his murder nf the female infant, Ann
Maria Halbert :—Ou the inerning of 'Thursday, tlee 15th in-
stant, Dean, instead of going in his employ at the manufae-
to' yof Ir.Tyrrel, engraver, Alilgaie, went to the Red Lion,
Cho-Ise*, and having taken r. treshistent, lie addressed himself
to Serjeatii Fur, of the 15th Hussars, who was sitting in the
pat lune. Hr acid he had is great inclination to enlist into the
regiment to which lie (Serjratst Farr) belonged; that he had
been is. his Majesty's service before ; was tired of working at
Ins !lade. and he believed that lie never should be eontfirt•
aide again till he was a soldier: for formerly, when he be•
longed to the 131lt Light Dragoons, lie had several favourite
females at one time, but lime: ly that %sae not the case, and
Ile thought regimentals had a great effect in winning the affec-
tions of ladies. The Serkent tools 11:m before Lieut. Hick-
man, la approval, .11111,1 afterwards he gave him ls. as enlist-
ing money. Dean then aecompanied Serjeant Farr to his
qoarters, st the Ship, in Willi -street, and theme he wrote
the subjoined letter. dated Ott. 14 .1--

" DEAR JOSErn-I shall rot be able to come home to•uight. for
lam engaged upon some otb •r business. You need not be alarmed
about my absence, as I am er.deavouring to procure a situation. I
wasv.ent by Air. Mt/Jai/At it the houseof a gentleinau at Pimlico,
who wanted a servant ; the geldrman being frau home, the servants
requested me to stop all night at the house and sleep. I shall be at
home to-niormw morning. You may tell Mr. Tyrrell the cause
why I have nyt been at work, and do not, either him or you. be
&Wiwi. I ant yohr's, " It. DEAN."'
" Mr. Williams, Engraver, 5, Church-
rcer. Aldgete, WhitechapeL"
The above letter Dean gave to Serjeant Farr to pnt in the
post office; and after taking supper, lie went to bed. On
the following morning he went to the York Hospital. and was
there itispeeted by the Surgeon and passed. He went from
thence to Oneeiesiptare Pollee Office, and was attested be
fore the Magistrates. Tile Serjeant paid him the usual tuns,
aunt after he was sworn he went to the Rollin Hood, in Duke-
street, Westminster. He remained drinking with the fler-
jeatit and others until nearly five o'clock; the Serjeant and
Dean left together. Dean said that he had some linen at his
washerwoman's, and the Serjeant told hint that it would be as
well if he could procure a shirt from her to put on to go to
the Colonel's next day for his inspection. Dean said that lie
would go to her, and went down Cockspur.street. Dean
insist have gone, when hue parted from the Serjeent, direct to
the house of Mr. Halbert, fur it appears that he arrived there
before six o'clock.

Alter Dean had committed the murder, he went to the Ship,
in Wardour-street. Oii his arrival Serjeant Farr asked him
if he had got his linen from his waslirrwoutan. He replied,
that she had not got it done as he had expected. 'Flo. Ser-
jeant asked hint to drink some beer, which he did. Dean
then called for a pint of porter; he placed himself beside
Farr, and entered into conversation with the persons in com-
pany, and seemed as teach at ease as he had done during the
former part of the day, and did not betray the least derange-
ment of mind. He informed the Serjeaur that he visited at
the Grapes, in Church-row, Aldgate, and lie expressed his
afiretion for the landlord's daughter; but he did not say one
word about their having quarrelled. On the Saturday (the
morning rafter the mustier) he rose at eight o'clock, and the
Serjratit lent him a clean shirt to appear in before the Colo.
net; but in consequence of the Colonel's illness, his inspec-
tion was put off till the Monday. At teu, un Saturday, Dean
went with the Serjeant, and saw the Guards parade in the
Park, and there passed his opinion upon their evolutions.—
Alter the suldiess were dismissed, lie went to the Robin Huod,
and thetice to the Serjeant's quarters in Wardriotr. street ; he
%cut to bed at eig,,lit o'clock, and rose on the following morn-
big bcfore sewn, went into the tap-room and asked for ilie
newspaper, which lie reed, and inane Jiately went tip to his
room, and did not come down again for a considerabie time.
Towards evening lie sat dim it in a dark box, and went to
sleep, and was awoke the landlord, who advised him to
go it) bed. De accordingly lose up and went to his bed
alit" WWII a soon 4 man named Beek, who slept with
him. went to Ii .1 a short time after, lie found hint fast asleep.
On Nlonday morning, Dean arose at shoat half past seven
o'clock, has ing agreed to wait for the Serjeant to accompany
him to the Colonel's. A little before 10 o'clock Deists bor.
rowed three halfpence from the landlord, for the purpose, as
he said, of listyti.g soma tobacco. Dean then left the house,
and was not seen afterwards by the Serjcant, who came at
the appointed lime to meet him, till lie was in custody.
Dean bore an e‘eellent chat acter in the former regiment
to which lie belonged; his father is a respectable farmer
resithug *bout seven miles from Bury St. Edmund's, and to
procure lils discharge paid, about two years ago, 401. tile two
substitutes.
