THE RECENT 21.81BUNGEER.

FORDINGBRIDGE, MONDAY.
This day George J. Gilbert, the ticket-of-leave
who is charged with the murder of a young
lMary Ann Hall, under circumstances
oa°flaltiltinjeicaoed st revolting nature, at a place near Ford-
ingbridge, in the county of Dorset, was brought up
on remand, at the Fordingbridge Police-station, be-
fore Mr. Coventry, one of the county magistrates.
It will be remembered that this murder, which
was perpetrated in broad daylight, only a short
distance from the house in which Miss Hall re-
sided, took place on the morning of Sunday se'n-
night, while the victim was on her way to church,
and from the state in which the deceased was found,
coupled with the evidence of the medical gentle-
men who were examined at the inquest, there is but
good reason to believe that the murder was not com-
mitted until after a desperate but ineffectual at-
tempt at violation. The information of the finding
of the body was given by Gilbert himself; and it
was from various discrepancies in the statements
which he made, taken in conjunction with his pre-
viousi bad character, that he was suspected. It
s
stated that Gilbert has only recently left the em 7
ployment of Mr. Hall, the father of the deceaseerd
lady, by whom he was engaged as a. farm labournet;
and there is a further rumour that in conseq
of the manner in which he had conducted heLixinetscell7.f.
