QUEEN'S BENCH.—(THIS DAY.)
(Before Lord CAMPBELL and a Special Jury.)

QUEEN V NELLERSH.
This was an indictment for perjury, to which the de-
fendant had pleaded not guilty.
Mr. James, Q.C., with whom was:Mr. Sergeant Jones,
11PPPared for the prosecution, and Mr. Clarkson and Sir
Thesiger, with, whom was Mr. Huddlestone, con-
ducted the defence.
The inquiry was of a somewhat complicated cha-
racter, arising out of a Chancery proceeding relating to
a disputed mortgage deed. Mr. Holland, the real pro-
seater, was a brewer, and the defendant was an at-
torney at Godalming. In 1943 the defendant advanced
the
, prosecutor 2,0001. upon the security of a mortgage
"et!, and the' advance was subsequently increased by
another Party to 12,0001., and it was alleged the prose-.
rt." was induced to sign a deed coasigniug property to
triends of the defendant which the prosecutor had no in-
tention whatever to mortgage. Immediately after this
banker the defendant became the attorney rad
tilllniter of the prosecutor, and, acting upon his advice,
oeiresecutor left Godalming because he was in a state
so I health. He remained absent from Godalming for
._ca° time, and on his return he found the defendant in
mores.session of his Mortgaged property. The prosecutor,
alleged, then discovered that he had signed the
4acrtga .
gedeed without kuowing the real nature of
..8 e
its g°
and he filed a bill in Chancery against the
t" udant, for the purpose of upsetting the deed, and the
oetiaD, assigned in this indictment was alleged to be
wattled in the answers to that bill. The answer set
rtic'hteth that so far from the prosecutor being ignorant of
,Plarport and force of the deed, it was in point of fact
nctir over to him, and minutely explained, and he was
the cognizant of the real conditions and provisions ( f
havueed• The prosecutor, however, denied all this, and
of falsehoods,
pronounced the answer to be made up of a tissue
lt,_aisehnotls, he was induced to prefer various indict-
dequets for perjury against the defendant, as many, in-
by tu; as ten, but the majority of them were thrown out
also jury before whom they. were taken. He
eth preferred indictments for perjury against several
all er persons, including the defendant's clerks, the
alleged Perjury arising out of the same transaction, and
these indictments are now waiting for trial, but of
rag their eventually being brought into court will
letad upon the result of the present trial.
ue trial was proceeding when our report left, and
eyewas every prospect of its engaging the attention of
• Court the whole of the day.

the a •
trace. He bowed to the magistrate, and his appear-
'▪ nee was perfectly calm and unconcerned.
atT▪ homas Norton, police-constable A 17, stated that on
urday evening, being oa duty in the Lyceum
eatre his attention was attracted by a great tumult of
tghter and cries of " Turn him out" from various
irtS of the house, but principally from the pit. Going
that part he saw Mr. O'Connor in a box of the
F
„eieolld tier dancing a jig, imitating a violin ever by the motion of his arms, humming loudly
etZttbie music of the overture, and occasionally crying
800, boo 1" His grotesque behaviour seemed to
%'„• use some people, and the audience in the pit laughed
cheered and applauded. The ladies in the dress
circle seemed much alarmed. The overture was nearly
e aeluded, the curtain was just going to rise, and the
reZnanaece on the stage was about to begin.
r. O'Connor-I did not interrupt anything. I was
• Y.doing this (imitating a violin player). There was
Citithlng going
on. They had not begun.
pr, HENRY-The overture had begun, and that was
!art of the performance. But you had better let the
Witness proceed, and you can ask him what you think
Prop when he has finished.

you,
Upon my honour, I did not.
*Cr* HENRy-Let the witness go on. You can say
It. You please afterwards.
Witness-. After he struck me in the mouth I again
bgged of him to sit down ; but he went on making
're noise in the same way, dancing, and moving his
botids and arms like a fiddler, andninging out " 800,

live me two shillings, and make me an inspector in
two months, if I would let him go.-(Laughter.)
Mr. O'Connor-I occasioned no interruption. I was
hilly doing this (humming and imitating the bowing
Motions and fingering of a violin player, amidst laughter)
and all the people in the pit were laughing. That was
an I was doing when be came and turned me out.
