body to pieces with a carving knife and forced the pieces
through the pipe of the water-closet of her master'shouse.
Mr. J. S. Flower, the surgeon to the P division of
police, deposed that Sergeant Quinnear, one of the officers
of the division, brought to him a number of pieces of a
human body, which had evidently originally formed a
female child. The bead was divided into two parts, the
hands and arms were severed, the ribs were also sepa-
rated, and altogether eighteen pieces of a human body
were examined by him. There was the mark of a bruise
on the head, which might have been occasioned by an
accidental fall, and the lungs crepitated upon being
pressed, from which he inferred that the child had
breathed, and this was the only circumstance upon which
he was justified in expressing an opinion that the child
was born alive.

Baron Alderson said the charge of murder could not
be supported upon this evidence. The first thing to be
done was, to satisfy the jury clearly, that the child was
born alive ; however, if it was not born alive, it was
clear it could not be murdered. He thought, therefore,
that the jury might direct their attention solely to the
charge of concealing the birth.
The Jury said they agreed with his Lordship in think-
ing that there was not sufficient evidence to show that
the child was born alive, and they therefore acquitted
the prisoner of murder, but found her guilty of conceal-
ing the birth of the child:

The prisoner was sentenced to be imprisoned and kep
to hard labour for one year.
