PUBL!C.OFFICE, BOW.STREEt

• DEAD BODIES.
YESTERDAY several Of the-inhabitants of \Vych-
street waited upon Mr: FORD, to -complain of a
mob that had collteed about the house, late the
Queen of Bohemia's Head, where the dead bodies
were discovered on Sunday *; the mob were proceed-
ing hr ads of violence, in consequence of which
Mr.
,FORD immediately' direCted a ,party\ of Peace
Officers to repair to the. spot, who (dispersed .the
crowd without any mischief ensuing. A young
man, who was taken, into .custody the preceding
night. at the above mentioned house, under .an idea
of being one of the Surgeons who caused the bodies
to be brought there for disseClion,, was examined ;
but nothing further appeared than that he was found
in the house on,Sunday night about ten o'clock, and
-could not account in a satisfactory manner how he
got there ; and &boy, who had waited on the Sur.
genus, said he had seen him in company with one
Of them a few days ago, which he, however, posi-
tively denied, and called several respectable persons
to Prove that he was a' Midshipman in the Navy,
and had only been in town a few days.
The boy stated, that he had been erriployedtbout
a month by Mr. C—, a Surgeon, to light the
fire, and attend upon them at the house wly.i they
brought the bodies to disieCt, which, was almost
very day ; that the. bodies were brought there in a
large box by a man who said he had them from
. • the Hospital; that the flesh, and other parts they
did not want, were buried in the cellars, and the
bones preserved for skeletoins ; he also said, that the
house had been hired by Mr. C. of the Landlord,
for one year, for the purpose ; and that his father,
who is a Carpenter, had made. new locks, doors, &c.
Two cases of Sur,rcon's instruments, and, an apron,
. stained ,with blood, found in the said house, were
proclaced,,,l A large table, for dissenting on, was
'also foundin the house, and there being a fire light-
ed in one of the rooms, on Sunday evening, it is
probable they were then going to work. On dig-
ging in one of the cellars, sufficient was discovered
to corroborate the boy's testimony as to the bury.
ing of the flesh there, and from .this spot there is.
sued a most horrible stench. The boy said that he
had quitted them about five weeks ago,' not liking
so shocking a trade.
• Mr. 70RD. recommeoded the parish officers to
ply to the Coroner for the distria, to summon a jury
as • soon as possible, to make the necessary inquiries
concerning the remains of the dead bodies found in
the house (which appeared to consist Of a roan,
man, and 'child) as the .most proper means to asder.
tain.the fast, and tp do away the ncktioacutertairted
by the mob, that murders had been committed; and
ordered all the *ties who had appeared before him
to attend, v(hen that investigation took place.
In the afternoon the Coroner's Jury held their
Inquest at a neighbouring Public house, and return-
ed their verdict, that the bodies were brought there
by some Surgeon or Surgeons unknown, for the pur-
pose of flisseftion—the ,xemains of the bodies were
taken. away .in the evening in shells, and interred
in Saint'Clement's church yard.
