LAW INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Pane.)
IN RE WESTBROOK.
This bankrupt, who was a solicitor in the Strand, and at
present confined in Whitecross-street Prison, now applied
for his release from custody. He was opposed on the
ground of misappropriation of moneys, and also on the
ground that he was in custody for disobeying, under an
order of the Lord Chancell.r, for payment of costs.
Mr. Hughes, of the firm of Hughes, Kearney, and Mas-
terman, appeared for the opposing creditor, the Rev. Mr.
Martin, and put in an order in a ciuse, " Martin v. West
brook," cancelling a portion of an agreement as being ob
tained by misrepresentation.
Mr. Griffin denied that any fraud was imputed by the
Lord Chancellor, and quoted the case from the Law Times.
Mr. Hughes said he had a certified copy of the order of
the Court, which he read and pit in as evidence, and sub-
mitted that the bankrupt was not entitled to be released
from custody.

➢lr.•Grifli'hs again urged that it was not a fraud, there-
fore the bankrupt was entitled io his release.
His Honour ultimately said he would look over the
papers, and, as the bankrupt was in custody, give his deci-
sion at an early day.

(Before Mr. Commissioner Holroyd.)

IN RE FENN.

This bankrupt was an innkeeper at Norwich, and this
was a meeting for last examination and discharge.
Mr. Brough appeared for the assignees, and did not op-
pose. The bankrupt had been in business many years, and
now failed for £3,000, and assets to about halt that amount.
his Honour granted the discharge.
THE ANGLO-FRENCH AGRICULTURAL TRADING COMPANY.

A meeting was held for a call in the case of this com-
pany, and it was fixed at £2 per share,

IN RE HOLMES.

A dividend meeting was held in the case of this bank-
rupt, a shipowner, in Swan-alley, City, and a dividend of
Is, in the pound was ordered. A previous dividend was
declared of 3s, 6d. in the pound. The debts were above
£2,300.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.---This Day.

-41,-..

(Before the Assistant-Judge.)

A respectably dressed person named Hicks surrendered
to his bail on a charge of assaulting the police and creating
a disturbance in Cremorne Gardens.

From the evidence of the p lice•constable it appeared
that on the occasion of the Licensed Victuallers' fete on the
Ist of July the defendant and a friend were present at
Cremorne Gardens, and about half-past 12 o'clock a dis-
turbance occurred, when the police interfered.
There were some other persons engaged in the
quarrel, and by direction of Inpector Drake two constables,
named Ayres and Manley, were sent to restore order, it

possible. The two constables alleged that the defendant
refused all persuasion, and to prevent further annoy-
ance steps wore taken to eject him and his friend from
the gardens. In effecting this they said they received
many violent kicks about their legs and shins from the
defendant, and the result of the disturbance was that the
prisoner was charged with assault, and the magistrate
sent the case to be disposed of at the session.
For the defence it was contended that the police had alto-
gether acted under a mistake in taking Mr. Hicks into cus-
tody, as instead of being the aggressor, he was in fact trying
to procure the ejectment of another who had been making
himself objectionable to some of the visitors of the gardens.
The police constables having given their evidence.
The Assistant Judge said he did not think any very
' violent assault had been proved.
Mr. Sleigh, counsel for the defendant, said, although
that was so, it was of the utmost importance to defendant
that he should take steps to remove the stigma of having
been in the custody of the police without the slightest
reason. His client was a respectable licensed victualler, and
if the evidence, of the police was true, then most certainly
an assault had been committed ; but he contended that they
had taken the wrong man into custody. It was of the utmost
importance to the defendant that the evidence of the police
should be thoroughly sifted, because from the beginning the
utmost prejudice had been imported into the case. He felt
that the witnesses he should call would prove to the satis-
faction of the jury that the police had altogether been mis-
taken in taking Mr. Hicks into custody.
Mr. Cannon, an auctioneer, carrying on business in
Bloomsbury, said he was at Cremorne Gardens on the Ist
of July, and about half-past 12 he invited a number of his
friends to the refreshment bar, when a little man, in con-
sequence of his reaching over his shoulder to get a glass off
the bar, felt himself offended. He challenged witness to
fight, but he refused, and a disturbance was the result,
The next he saw was the defendant in the custody of
the police. He remonstrated with the constable,
and told them they had made a mistake, and that they
ought to have taken the little man. The police did not
treat Mr. Hicks very tenderly.
In answer to a question from the Assistannt-Judge, the
witness said he was ordered to leave the gardens, but he
did not consider he was ejected from them.
George Webb said he was in the gardens and saw the
disturbance. He did not think the defendant was the ag-
gressor.
In cross-examination the witness said ho did not know
the defendant personally, but he had been pointed out to
him as a fighting man in• Jim Mace's circus.
George Parkes also said he was at Uremorne-gardens on
the evening in question. He thought, as far as ho could
form an opinion, that the police were to blame.
The jury found the prisoner guilty of assaulting the
police in the execution of their duty.
The Assistant-Judge said he never saw a case more

clearly prov,d, and he could not but think that it had been
aggravated, in consequence of there being a determination
in goxters to offer every opposition to ,the police, anil
by the bad advice the prisoner had chosen to adopt. He
should not, under the circumstances, send him to prison,
but he should inflict on hint a flue of £2O, and also call
upon him to find two respectable sureties to keep the peace
for 12 months.
The fine having been paid, and bail accepted, the de-
fendant was discharged. _ _ _

John Price, who was yesterday found guilty of stealing
a pair of diamond earrings, value £lOO., the property of
Harry Emmanuel, of Hanover-square, was to• day sentenced
to four years' penal servitude.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day.

WESTMINSTER.

DISGRACEFUL AND UNPRON DYED ASSAULT.—Mary
Ann Baker, a women of the lowest class, was brought be-
fore Mr. Arnold, charged with assulting Ann Courts, an
elderly respectable looking woman.
Complainant had evidently received so severe a blow that
her whole face was contused and swollen. She stated that
at 12 o'clock yesterday she was proceeding through York-
street, Westminster, in company with a friend, when the
defendant suddenly struck her a violent blow on the nose,
from the effects of which her face now presented its present
appearance.
Mr. Arnold—Do you know anything of the defendant?
Complainant—Not the least, she is a perfect stranger to

me.
Mr. Arnold—Had you given her any provocation?
Cemplainant—None whatever. I never spoke to her nor
did anything to her. She suddenly came up and struck me
before I was aware of her intention, and without any cause.
A respectable young woman, who was passing at the
time the outrage was committed, and who described herself
as a stranger to both parties, said that the attack was per-
fectly unprovoked in any way by the complainant, who was
quietly pursuing her way when it happened-
Mr. Arnold (to defendant)—What have you to say ?
Defendant—l am very sorry, I was drunk, as the police-
man knows,

Mr. Arnold—lf ycu please to get drunk it is no reason
why unoffending persons should suffer for your want of
reason. This is a most wanton and unjustifiable act. The
complainant is walking peaceably through the streets, when
you suddenly attack her, without anything which can bear
the colour of an excuse. This sort of thing cannot be per-
mitted, and toe sentence upon y ou is that you be committed
for one month to hard lub,,ur in the House of Correction.

An Old Tory's

Old Liberal.

We have all the more pleasure in transferring to
our columns, from those of the staunch old Tory

John Bull, the following generous tribute to the
memory of the late liberal-minded Marquess of Nor-
manby, seeing that this kindly estimate of the noble
marquess's character so entirely coincides with our

own, as expressed by us in our leading columns
immediately upon the first announcement of his

decease :

Constantine, Marquess of Normanby, who has passed
away from life at the comparatively early age of 66, was
nevertheless enabled, by the chances of hereditary position,
to occupy a place in men's eyes during the period which we
have named, and to bear his part in the great histo-
rical changes which were crowded within it. Viscount

Normanby showed no hesitation in choosing the line of
policy which his own temper and jndgmen.t pre-
scrib'd to him, and he made his maiden speech in f,vour"ot

Catholic Emancipation, continuing after the passing of tha:
measure to take an active part in promoting thsf enlarge-
ment of the representative system against which the Duke of
Wellington had so rashly committed himself, as a thing
necessarily revolutionary, in whatever shape it might come.
The politics of the young Viscount not being agreeable to the
views of his father, led to his retirement from public life for
a time. But in consequence of the accession of the Whig
Ministry to power, he found himself connected with official

duties, commencing his career as Governor of Jamaica. Hi•
a 'ministration is well remembered in that colony ; and it will

be recollected that only a few weeks ago the Legislative As
sembly passed a formal resolution expressive of their gratitude
for the efforts which he had made—true in his attachment to
his old sphere of work—to secure for the colony a ureasure of
justice at the hands of Parliament. From this period, till
the downfall of the Whigs in 1841, he filled various offices
with honour to himself and advantage to the country. We
are told by one of those sciolists who undertake at a
m 'moat's notice to sit in judgment on eminent men for the
daily press, that he owed all his official successes to his
" good manners." It is perfectly true, as the same autho-
rity states, that "he was a man to like; it wis pleasant to
be in his company." But a writer must be very ignorant
of the true character of our political system if he sapposes
that the mere grace of demeanour and geniality of spirit
(which Lord Normanby undoubtedly posseisaT in a high
degree) can avail by themselves to raise a man to high
office and keep him before the public eye. knd we find
from the authority of one who can speak with knowledge
on the subject, that Lord Normanby "was a hard work-
ing man in office ; many of those who acted with him
and under him, in his various official capacities, men of
talent and distinction, would state that the social qualities
served only to sweeten the toils of office, but never inter-
fered with his public duties; they would bear witness to
the clearness of his intellect, and the facility with which he
executed business."
No doubt the charm of Lord Normanby's " manners"
had its sway in helping forward the congenial policy which
distinguished his name at the most important period of his
political life, and that by which he will be bastreixterabered.
We refer to his tenure of the post of Lord-Lieutenant of
Ireland from 1834 to 1839: and it may be added that, as the
easy bonhommie of Lord Melbourne was an important ele-
ment in th e judicious policy with which that statesman guided
us over that critical period of our history which attended the
outcome of new social forces that might easily have burst into
revolution in other hands—so Lord Normanby's social quali-
ties became a great political fact in the difficult prikeqs of
reconciling the newly developed national lip Olieioid,to
liil
the English connection. It was something t 49Apei;4a1
fascination which induced O'Connell to sak jOais Yiee-
roy was " the beat Englishman that Ireland hatrelieilieen."
.
But these qualities would have made very littleimpression

nified policy of conciliation which ha was the first to intro-
duce
in Ireland,
elanndec,easnsdar;
feature ich has
isn Irishin ' administration. we may hope, become
a settled
The same qualities of a light heart anal generous disposi
tion were conspicuous in the serene indifference with which
he looked down on the coarse abuse so plentifully heapsd
upon him in consequence of the part which he took on the
Italian question. As our Minister at Florence during some
years, Lord Normanby had ample opportunities of acquaint-
ing himself with the real merits of that hypocritical ana
fraudulent conspiracy which has resulted in bringing about
the Piedmontese domination now existing in Italy. His
love for the country and the people among whom he had
sojourned so long was much too strong to permit of his
remaining silent while they were trodden down beneath the
mean and cruel tyranny administered from Turin. He was
not the man to shrink from the championship of an
unpo-
pular cause ; and, in defiance of all the obloquy and vitu-
peration of which the Liberal press is so emphatically
liberal, he continued to utter his unpalatable truths in the
reluctant ear of the English Ministry and Parliament.
It has actually been made a reproach to him that he broke
through his old party connections in the advocacy of these
convictions, and it has been gravely urged, in aggravation
of the offence, that he even did this after he had been re-
called from his post in a peremptory manner by Lord
Malmesbury We do not believe that there is the slightest
ground for insinuating that the recall in question implied
anything like a personal affront; bus, whether it did or no,
Lord Normanby had far too high a soul to be guided in his
political course by such considerations. In this respect he
was strikingly distinguished from his colleague of long
standing,Lord Palmerston. Much of that statesman's foreign
policy has been dictated to his mind by some personal quarrel
or other ; thus his persevering hostility to Prussia has entirely
grown, we believe, out of a private grudge against Chevalier
Bunsen. This difference between the two statesmen was well
discerned in their conduct subsequent to the Spanish mar-
riages. Both were taken in on that occasion. Lcirdl'almer-
ston's bitter resentment was no doubt the motive of his
eager adhesion

v
hand, in the narrative which he published of the events of
1848, exerted himself to do justice to the merits of Louis
Philippe's Government, and was perhaps the only inlitt-
ental vindicator of the down-fallen dynasty at that time.
The book to which we have referred, though somewhat
hastily composed, will long be read as the most trustworthy
account, which we yet possess of the Paris Revolution of
1848. It is not, as is well known, Lord Normanby's only
contribution to English literature. Re, like Disraeli and
Bulwer Lytton, first endeavoured to impress his thoughts
and views on the age through the means of works of ima-
gination, and his novels are still read with pleasure, though
constructed after too ephemeral a model to keep a perman-
ent place in public attention. But he never f 'Tot that
he bad enrolled himself as a citizen of the commonwealth
of letters, and his warm sympathies were always ready in
behalf of English literature.

THE CHANNEL FLEET.

There was an immense influx of visitors to the fleet on
Monday. From Leith, Granton, Kirkcaldy, Burntisland,
and from all parts of the surrounding country, people
flocked in thousands to inspect the great iron-clad vessels.
Leith exhibited the same scene of bustle and activity which
it has done since the war vessels anchored in the Firth.
Steamboats, small and large, decked out in all the colours
that imagination can fancy, occupied berths along the piers,
and crowded all the available jetties that could be spared
for their accommodation. Crowds of people, such as have
seldom before been witnessed in Leith, swarmed on the
quays, battled with exorbitant masters of steam tugs about
sailing regulations and fares, and fought their way by
main force on to the decks of the boats that
were to convey them to the fleet. One Striking
peculiarity of the crowds that thronged 7.eiih
from early morning to evening was the large number of
country people that were to be seen, most of them dressed
in holiday attire. These came from all parts of the country,
evidently bent on enjoying th-mselves to the best of their
ability, and all displaying great curiosity to explore the
various wonders of the huge vessels about which they bad
heard so much. Passengers had the utmost difficulty in
getting OD board the vessels of the squadron in consequence
of the vast numbers of people that battled for precedence in
being taken off the piers ; but the inconvenience experienced
in being put aboard the fleet was nothing compared with the
delays and annoyances which were to be enckurpd i,ft being
taken off again. The greater portion of the immense con -
course of people that went to the fleet insisted upon'being
put on board the Black Prince or the Warritr„and.the con-
sequence of this, as might readily bt expaCted; was to
crowd these ships to such a degree that it was almost im-
possible to get alongside. For several hours the crush on
these vessels was tremendous. Five and six steamers were
to be seen at one time moored in rows around the ships
waiting their turns to discharge their living freights, and
the scenes at the gangways, which resulted from this, were
both amusing and exciting. People were hurried on board
as fast as the conductors of steam boats could urge them up
the ladders, and yet, in spite of all this dispatch, the occu-
pants of many of the steamers were kept waiting for hours
ere they could get on the decks of the iron-clads; and many
of the captains of the steamers gave up the task of attempt-
ing to get on board in despair.
In the afternoon the Duchess of Roxburghe, Mr. and
Mrs. Graham Lawson, and a select party of ladies end
gentlemen paid a visit to the flag ship Edgar, at the invi-
tation of the admiral. After lunching with the admiral
the party were conducted through the vessel by the officers,
and spent some time inspecting the many interesting objects
on board. The ship's band was stationed on the quarter-
deck during the afternoon,and discoursed some popular airs.
In the afternoon William Lindsay, Esq,, Provost of
Leith, entertained Admiral Dacres and a large
,number ol
the officers of the fleet to dinner at his fepidence;''llermi•
tage-hill. The dinner was served in an efliiint marquee,
which was erected for the occasion, and tlic,::band, of the
Leith Rifle Volunteers was in attendance, and played a
variety of popular music during dinner. In addition to the
officers of the fleet there were present the consuls of the
port, the members of the Leith town council, and a number
of volunteer officers.
THE LEITII BALE.—On Monday night the inhabitants
of Leith gave a grand ball in honour of the officers of th:
fleet, in the Corn Exchange, which was tastefully decorate
with banners and evergreens for the occasion. There
of
a large and fashionable attendance, comprising many
elite of the neighbourhood.

STATE OF TRADE.

MANGEtEsTErt, Aug. 4.—This morning there was rather
more inquiry for yarns, and in some instances it resulted
in business, chiefly for India, at the prices current this day
week. For other markets the business has been small. On
the whole there has been a fair inquiry, which it is thought
may result in still more business in a few days. In the
cloth market there has also been a rather better feeling.
The recent American news appears to have suggested the
impression that we are not going to see the end of the war
for some time to come, and that we shall consequently not
have American cotton. There has been more inquiry for
cloth under these circumstances, and in some instances it
has led to buying. The India lettersare only just tohand,
and have not had time to take effect, but they are considered
favourable, and suggest a probability of mote business
for that quarter, inasmuch as they rep ,rt some little in-
quiry for Manchester goods in the country, where these
goods were beginning to go into consumption. Buyers for
the home trade have also been making inquiries, which
have led to business. The stocks of finished goods in the
home-trade houses are rather bare, and it t: ay be expected
that they will be looking out for favourable opportunities
to replenish them. Sellers nominally quote the same
prices, but practically the market for the latter de-
scription of goods is a shade higher. What purchaees have
been made in India goods have run chiefly on 61b. and 71b.
shirtings and other light fabrics. The Liverpool cotton
market has been very quiet since last Thursday, probably
owing in some measure to the arrivals of Surat cotton, the
deliveries of which had been 25,000 bales up to yesterday,
making wi'h other descriptions a total of 27,600, against
sales in the same period of 14,000, of which 6,000 had been
for speculation and export. Prices are generally rather
higher for cloths than they were a month ago, 66-reed 27-
inch printers, and 52, 56, and 60-reed 39-inch shirtings
being quoted 3d. per piece dearer, and 56-reed 26-inch
printers, and 66 and 72-reed 26-inch shirtings being 6d. per
piece higher. It is probably the quieter and steadier tone
of this and the Liverpool markets during the last few days
that has brought the buyers of cloths and yarns a little more
freely forward. The deliveries of goods upon preexisting
contracts continues rather considerable, and the stocks in
first hands are reported to be rather bare. A good deal of
inquiry is being made for first rate qualities of T-cloths
from American cotton, the makers of which some time since
stopped their mills, and which are now out of stock, or very
difficult to be met with. Messrs. John Slagg and Co. report
of the cloth market:—
"The market continued very quiet to the end of the week,
but the quotations of Tuesday last were firmly adhered to.
Yesterday and to-day there has been rather more disposition
on the part of buyers to operate, especially in the lighter
kinds of goods, and a fair amount of business has been done
in them without any change in prices."
CARDIFF, Aug. 3.—There is an average business doing
in the steam coal trade, and the collieries are upon the
whole moderately well employed. A considerable number
of vessels have arrived during the last seven or eight days,
and freights are lower. Increased activity is expected to be
the result in the coal trade. The ironnaasters are fairly aff
for orders, and the advanced quotations are fully maintained.
Many of the works are suffering from want of water. The
average quotations are as follows .—Rails, f. o. b., £5 155.;
merchant bars, £5 15s. to £5 17s. 6d. The recent improve-
ment in the tin trade is with difficulty maintained.
LEEDS, 4th.—The attendance of buyers in the cloth halls
has been rather limited to-day, nor, indeed, was there a
full attendance of manufacturers. The opening of the new
Town-hall at Halifax by his Royal Highness the Prince of
Wales, and the festivities consequent thereon, have thinned
the market here of many persons. All things considered,
a fair amount of business was done in plain and fancy wit-
neys, meltons, tweeds, and other seasonable fabrics, and a
few good parcels of " whites," heavy and medium qualities,
also changed hands. Not much was done in ordinary black
cloths, but a few unions found purchasers. The market
was steady as to prices. Those of wool keep firm.
NOTTINGHAM, 4th.—The business done in lace yarns
was only on a moderate scale at this exchange hall to-day,
and prices were about the same as on Friday. There was
a quiet feeling in the demand for hosiery yarns, at lull
prices. Silks without change. In brown nets there was no
material alteration.

The Murder and Attempted Suicide in

Marylebone.

Last evening Dr. Lankester, Coroner for Central Middle- '
sex, held an inquest at the Buffalo's Head Tavern, Maryle-
bone-road, on the body of Sarah Emily Adeline Mitchell,
aged 14 months, the Illegitimate daughter of Sarah Emily
Mitchell, alias Chappel. Some facts connected with the
murder of the child and attempted suicide of the mother
were published in Ihe Sun of yesterday.
Mr. S'eigh (barrister), instructed by Mr. Chappell, of 14,
Chester -terrace, appeared for the unfortunate woman.
• The following is the evidence offered
Eliza Mitchell, of Marylebone road, said,—l am the sister
of Sarah Mitchell, and aunt to the deceased. My sister has
never been married, but has gone by the name of Chappel
ever since the 11th of October, 1862, at which time we came
from Liverpool, when we resided at No. 11, Seymour-street.
My sister had no occupation, and I can assign no other
reason for her assuming the name of Chappel than that Mr.
Chappel, the father of the child, visited her. The deceased
was born in London, after which the mother returned to
Liverpool. When she came back to London she took charge
of her child. Latterly my sister has been in very indiffer-
ent health, and for a long time has been under the care of
Mr. Cathrow, her medical attendant. Last Friday I took
the child out for an airing in the park. and returned at
twelve o'clock, when, after giving the child its dinner, I
put it to bed ; after which I went to Covent-garden-market
to buy a peach. I returned at five minutes to four in the
afternoon, when I found the door of my sister's room
locked. I sent the landlady up stairs to see if the child
was in its cot, and receiving au answer in the negative,
t biltopartely4 went to-Mr. gift-brow's, and in a short
time I returned with that gentleman. 'Mr; Cathrow did
not succeed in obta'ning admittance until he procured a
poker, with which he broke in a panel of the door. On
doing that he put his head through the aperture, and
said, "Oh, what a sight 1" Withdrawing himself, he put
me through the opening, when I found my sister lying
on the floor as though she were dead, and on the bed was
the baby covered over with a pillow. I then opened the
door and admitted Mr. Cathrow, and at the same time I
drew his attention to the fact that the baby moved. My
I sister did not say anything. I had never heard her say that

she would destroy herself.
In answer to a juryman—She has been in very low spirits,
She was not subject to fits. I had no suspicion that she
would do harm t, the child.
Mr. Wm. Cathrow, M.R.C.S., of 42, Weymouth-street,

Portland-place, said—The mother of the child was highly
nervous, obstinate in the extreme, and jealous. She told me
that she could not survive unless she got on friendly terms
again with Mr. Chappel, and that she should be driven to
do something to herself. For the last three or four days she
had been so much excited that I thought it desirable to call
in another medical man, and on the very morning when the
deed was committed I and my friend saw her. Mr. Byam,
of Welbeck.street, accompanied me, and we left with the
impression that she would not do ally harm to herself. When
I went into the room she was lying on the sofa reading the
Bible. I told her she was going the very best way to keep
Mr. Chappel from her on account of the annoyance she had
given him ; that if she would only leave off these annoy-
ances I had reason to believe he would settle a very hand-
, acme sum upon her. She smiled several times, and said she
would think of what I had said. The witness corroborated
her sister's evidence, and continued—l first went to the child
after entering the room, thinking the woman was dead. I
took the child up and gave it to the servant. Turning to
the right I saw the mother lying on the floor. I touched her,
and she said "Oh !" I examined her, and found a jagged
wound 41 inches in length on the lett side of the neck, and
the jugular vein divided. She had bled profusely. She had
no pulse, and was blanched and pale. The chid was covered
with blood. I had her stripped. I found a small clean cut
wound about half an itch below the left nipple. I put a piece
of plaster on it ; there was no hemorrhage afterwards. The
child very soon became sick, and continued to vomit until
its death, about 12.30 p.m. on Sunday. After the death of
the child I communicated with the police, who took posses-
sion of the body. I made a post mortem examination.
After describing the condition of the body, the witness said
that death was caused by vomiting and exhaustion, caused
by the wound. The vomiting had been caused by the con-
striction of the stomach.
By Mr. Sleigh—She was supplied with every comfort by
Mr. Chappel. He was prepared and offered to make a liberal
settlement upon her, to sever the immoral connexion which
had existed between them.
By a Juryman—l had no reason to believe that, in conse-
quence of any supposed neglect, sbe would destroy herself.
John Suns, inspector of police D division, said—ln con-
sequence of a letter I received from Mr. Cathrow, I, in com-
pany with Police-constable Isaacson, 264 D, went to 108,
Marylebonuroad, on Sunday last, about a quarter to 2
o'clock. I found in the front room, first floor, a child lying
dead in a cot. In the back room a woman was in bed.
