THMUDER BY A BOY IN NORFOLK.
LYNN, APRIL 20.--Yesterday James Pears, the ivy
against ahem a verdict of tasmlaught r was last week
returned by t‘h:. jur_t empanelled to inquire into the death
of another bo) nointld William D,y, who
was shot
whilst crew Ties ping in Tulwell Feu, on SaturdaY, the
10th inst., Vvas brought up fur a final examination before
the district magistrates at the Dowuham petty sessions
ious
(having been examined and remanded proforma prev
to the coroner's inquest), charged with feloniously Ka"
line. and slaying the said William Day. •
It had been anticipated that another brother of the
prisoner, named Charles Pears, would be also accused
and examined as an accessory after the fact, in cense'
quenco of a statement said to have been made by hi;
sister sub,equent to the inquest, to the effect that he boa
assisted to bury the body of Day; but such was not thaa
case, the police, upon further it query, having foe°
the evidence insufficient to warrant his apP
heusion ; although, at an early stage of .--
inquiry, which occupied rho greater part of the day., one
of the magistrates on the beach gave it as his oPlni°
that the case ought to be remanded, in order to procure)
the attendance of Charles Pears, as likely to be
criminated by the proceedings. The progress of the
inquiry, however, tended to show that the little boy',
James B ars, had succEeded in burying the body (111,
Day, although the latter was much taller than him
with with no other aid than that of his own firmness and
termination.
Evidence substantially the same as that given heir,
ll
the coroner's jury having been adduced, after some de
beration, eEt
The Court decided to commit him for trial at th
Norwich Assizes, tor " killing and slaying William 1.4
a course which, independently of the coroner's wart en
(upon which also he stands committed), leaves ig
to indict him either for manslaughter or for syle r
murder, although it is generelly suposed that the feral,
course will be preferred. He wasp taken back to Sirttlhe
ham
Bridewell (where he will remain till the assizes)
same night.
