Mr. Henry Hoare was rather better yesterday
morning, and although his medical attendants cannot say
he is out of danger, they have hopes of his recovery. Lady
Mary Hoare is staying with, her husband,

The prosecutrix, a very well-conducted girl, is a tailoress,
and living with her mother, at No. 1, Ashley-place, Step-
ney-causeway. Yesterday evening she was in the Com-
mercial-road with her married sister, Julia Purdy, who is
also living with her sister at No. 1, Ashley-place. They
were about to buy some needles at a shop in the road,
when the prisoner trod on the complainant's boot lace,
which was hanging duwn. She prevented him breaking it,
and the sisters passed on. The prisoner then came up
to thein, looked in their faces, and said very saucily,
",You will jump the pavement in." The complainant said,
"You had better go on, sir." He stood before her, laughed
in her face derisively, and gave utterance to some very bad
language. Mrs. Purdy indignantly ordered the prisoner to
leave her and her sister alone. Ho made no answer, and
caught Miss Lee by the shoulders and repeated the bad
expressions. The sisters were walking on as fast as they
were able, and the prisoner continued to annoy them for
1 some time. They called aloud for help, and the prisoner
ran down Ratcliff-square. The females pursued him, and
he pulled off a belt he had on, and said he would murder
them. He then concealed himself behind a lot of empty
carriages at Mr. Gecrge Ellis's livery stables at the corner
of Ratc]iff-square. Ho was routed from his place of con-
cealment and ran away again. The females pursued him
for a mile and a half, and met with a police-constable
named James Sharp, No. 306 S, who took him into cus-
tody. He seemed to be a little in liquor,
and when charged at the station-house with
acting indecently to the females he said he had not done so,
but he might have used some expressions. The evidence
of both sisters went to shoW that the prisoner had grossly
insulted them by his filthy language and gestures, but that
the only assault he had committed was laying his hands on
Sarah Lee's shoulders.

Mr. Partridge said the charge of indecently assaulting
the complainant was not made out; if it had been he should
have committed the prisoner for trial. But an assault had
been committed, and it was accompanied with language un-
becoming, improper, and indecent. It was monstrous that
respectable females could not pass along the streets without
being insulted by blackguards. He fined the prisoner £3,
or, in default of paymefit, six weeks' imprisonment.
