prisoner asked where he should be tried. The reply was
first at this court, and eventually, if he should be com-
mitted, at the Central Criminal Court. At the station he
was formally charged by Mr Green, a member of the Coal
Exchange,with having married Elizabeth Green, his sister,
his wife being then alive. He was asked where his first
wife was, and he refused to answer. He afterwards in-
quired what the punishment was for such a crime. Witness
replied tbat it would depend on circumstances—from a
month's imprisonment upwards. The prisoner said he
thought it was penal servitude, and asked if " the wife"
would be called to give evidence, to which witness replied
thot he did not know.

Mrs E. Cheeseman, residing in Gloceeter-street, Queen-
square, deposed that she had known the prisoner since Jan.,
1861. He was then introduced to her at her house by his

had not seen the prisoner. since June or July, 1861, when
they parted in Ireland. Witness, in answer to the prisoner,
disclaimed having any vindictive feeling against him.
Mr W. Green, 7, Coal Exchange, said, I know the prisoner.
He contracted a marriage with my sister Elizabeth in the
summer of 1862, and
I was present at the marriage. It took
place at Uppingham, in Rutlandshire, at the chapel of the
Independents. The prisoner was married by the name of
John Parnell, and I did not know him by any other. A
Miss Burbidge was likewise present, as was also my brother
Samuel, who is no in Australia. The marriage register
produced I received from the registrar at Uppinglutm,
whom I know personally. After the marriage they lived at
different places in London, and latterly in Wolverhampton.
Mrs Cheesenaan was recalled, and said she had been in
correspondence with his first wife within the last month, and
she had every reason to believe she was now alive.
Mr Robert Palmer, of Beckfield-house, Rathdown,
Queen's County, and a Justice of the Peace for that county,
said he had known the prisoner from his boyhood, and was
sorry to see him in such a position, for he was a relation of
his. Me was married to Miss Frances Howard Flood in
July, 1814, in the Round Church, St. Andrew's parish,
Dublin, and witness was present at the marriage, and sub-
scribed the register. Stubber was a name in the prisoner's
family, but witness had always known him by the name of
Millard. He lived with his wife up to 1860 in Queen's
County. His wife afterwards applied to witness for assist-
ance, prisoner having left her without means in Ireland.
She was now living, and witness had scot' her a week ago.
The prisoner, on being cautioned, declined to make any
answer to the charge.
