" I big your pardon, but if you will allow me fur a moment.
After a short pause, he continued, " It is the request of the Jury
that the inquest should be adjourned to a later period. Several
of them have suffered very much, so as to affect their health, by
fatigue and attention. It is my desire, therefore, in this novel
ease, so extraordinary in its ciiisuns,tiniccs, to adjourn the inquest
from this day to the let December. 1 have sufficient reasons for
myself in so doing; and if there is any thing wrung, this will
allow time for an application to the Court of King's lhnch, not
only by those immediately. concerned, but by others who appear
here. Therefore, taddresstng the Jury), I disshiss you tu.day, anti
I will take your rixognizances to appear here on the Ist day of
December. _ _
