CORDNEtt V. MURPHY.
This Was an action for seduction.
Ann Cordner was the plaintiff, and Minh Murphy
he defendant.
The first witness was Miss Ann Cordner,e young
lady, apparently Alma 23 years of age. She ap-
peered considerably affected in the first instance,
but afterwards gave her evidence with less agita-
tion. She said—l am the daughter of the plaintiff,
who is a widow. My father was a surveyor. 1.,
understand he is dead about 20 years. lam ac-
quainted with Mr. Murphy, the Governor of the
County Gaol. I went to Miss Milliken's school
with Miss Anne Murphy, and was on terms of great
intimacy with her. I afterwards became acquainted
with all Mr. Murphy's family—it consists of Mr.
and Mrs. Murphy, three sons and two daughters.
I first knew the family upon going to see an ac-
quaintance who was confined for debt in the county
gaol. Mr. Miah Murphy is one of the sons of Mr.
Murphy. I frequently visited the house, upon the
invitation of various members of the family. My
mother was also on terms of intimacy with them.
I was frequently in the habit of walking with Miss
Murphy. On the Ist of April, 1829, I met the %k-
-leinlaut in Great George's-street about seven o'clock
in the evening. •He induced me to walk up the
Dyke with him, and on approaching the top he took
some liberties with me, and upon my compleitting,
he said it was no matter—that we should be one
from that night out. I aaked him what he meant,
and he, said, " I will marry you." I asked him
whether he was serious, and he replied " me
but I am." The witness then detailed the parti-
culars of the intercourse, which commenced on the
evening already referred to, and which led to the
birth of. u &mei° Odd in December last, at the
house of her mother. The intercourse was subse-
duently renewed, at different places, chiefly in the

the object of which appeared to be to show tliet she.

that the witness suffered two or three young gentle-
