2'HE JIUBDER AT WORCESTER.

WORCESTER, MONDAY.
The inquest on the body of Emily Jones, who was
found murdered in a pool near Perry Wood, within
a mile of this city, on Wednesday last, under cir-
cumstances which could leave little doubt that her
sweetheart, a man named Grundy, had killed her,
was resumed and concluded before Mr. W. S. P.
Hughes, county coroner, this afternoon.
The evidence given on the former examiva-
tion had proved that the deceased had been nu
company with the prisoner Grundy all Tuesday--
night, and they had then been seen walking
together in the fields near Perry Wood early on
Wednesday morning. When last seen together,
about 9 o'clock that morning, they were walking
across a field in the direction of the pool, and were
seen to within 70 or 80 yards of it.
Two witnesses were now examined.
John Holder and George Smith were engaged on
the Midland Railway, who saw the prisoner coming
from the direction of the pool at about half-past 9
o'clock on Wednesday morning. Ho was walking
very fast.
Harriet Grundy, sister to the prisoner, deposed
that when the prisoner came home, shortly before
10 on the Wednesday morning, he appeared agi-
tated, and continually exclaim( d, " I've done for
her." He did not say whom he meant by " her."
She judged from her brother's countenance that
something serious had happened. He had been in
an asylum from July to October last. He, had a
quantity of laudanum in his possession oa the pre-
vious Monday, in consequence of which, her mother
had given information to the police, and he had
been-taken before the magistrates en 'Tuesday, but
was discharged by them on his undertaking to ap-
p.-ac twin Liefore them next day. [ln the Metal-
time, however, the deed had been done.]
Mr. Budd, surgeon, described the results of the
post mortem examination. He found two severe
wounds on the left and back side of the head, ap-
parently caused by some blunt instrument, possibly
the hedge stake (produced) found in the pool by
the side of the body. Death had resulted from the
effect of these two blows, which had caused concus-
sion. It was not caused by drowning. There was
no water in the windpipe or air tube. The stomach
was healthy, and there were no symptoms of death
by drowning.
The jury, after a short deliberation, found a ver-
dict of wilful murder against Grundy.
The prisoner was not present during the exami-
nation, the magistrate before whom he had been
taken, and by whom he had been remanded, refus-
ing to allow him to be removed from the gaol. The
coroner had, accordingly, applied to the Secretary
of State for the Home Department, who declined to
interfere.

Per these and other Life-boat services the Institution has
voted £1,893 as rewards to the crews of the Lifeboats. It has
also granted re wards s mounting. to £515 10s. for saving 873
shipwrecked persons, by shore-boats and other means, tnak-
frig a total of 871 persons saved from a watery grave during
the last two years.
The number of lives saved by the Life-boats of the Society,
and other means, since its formation, is upwards of 12,200;
for which services 82 Gold Medals, 704 Silver Medals, and
:£15,250 in cash have been granted as rewards. The Institu-
tion has also expended £57,200 on Life-boat Establishments.
The public cannot but sympathise with the vigorous efforts
now being made by the Society to save the lives of Ship-
wrecked Crews. Their help was never more needed than at
the present time, when, through the extraordinary exertions
the Society has made within the past few years, It has now
One Hundred and Twenty-one Life-boats under its man-
agement, for the maintenance of which, in a state of thorough
efficiency, a large permanent annual income is absolutely
needed, if its humane mission is to be perpetuated.

ON THE SUCCESSFUL TREATMENT of
STRICTURES of the URETHRA ; showing why they
so .often appear Incurable, when in reality they might be
removed by the most simple means.
By F. B. COURTENAY,
And formerly Surgeon to the Metropolitan Infirmary for the
Cure of Strictures of the Urethra.

" This work is the production of a surgeon whose special
attention has been directed, through a long professional life,
to the treatment of strictures of the urethra. The cases
which Mr. Courtenay has given supply. ample evidence of his
great discriminative power in the diagnosis of the various
kinds of stricture, and of the scientific principles upon which
their management is founded. By his systematic management
an immense mitigation of pain to the unhappy sufferers is
attained, and future mischief prevented. The work we can
most unreservedly and confidently recommend as a valuable
contribution, both to the general and professional reader, and
ought to be found in the private study of all who are subject
to stricture."—Medical Circular.
