you." He unbuttoned his trousers, and I saw that
he was wounded. The blood was flaying, but not
to any extent. I took Mr, Leigh itto a private
room, and sent for a doctor (Mr. Dunn,, who dressed
the wound. By Mr. Dunn's advice by remained at
the hotel. He died on Sunday moiling about a
quarter after 11 o'clock. They had nit quarrelled.
They were laughing and joking with Each other all
the dinner-time.

Mr. Corrie—As far as you can juige—indeed,
you say so—it was an accident ?

Witness—Purely so.

Inspector Brimacombe said that MI. Leigh, the
elder brother of the deceased, was it court. He
knew nothing of the facts of the case.
Mr. Corrie—There seems to be no doubt as to the
facts of the case. The witness saw the whole trans-
action. Of course I shall require mo:e evidence.
You know nothing of the case, Mr. Leigh ?

The large target erected at Shoeburyness for the

repaired with the iron plates used in the construc-
tion of the Achilles, 50, and the Royal Oak, 34, at
Chatham Dockyard, in readiness for some further
experiments which will be made under the direction
of the Ordnance Select Committee. The target is
to be repaired under the superintendence of Mr. W.
Baskcamb, one of the foremen of shipwrights at
Chatham Dockyard.

Mr. Leigh—No. My brother said nothing to me
about it. I believe he told the surgeon it was more
his fault than that of Mr. Morris. My brother was
24 years of age, and was reading for the Ear.
Mr. Corrie—l will remand him. I will take bail
for his appearance. (To the prisoner)—Can you get
bail?

The Prisoner—Yes, sir.

Ultimately Mr. Corrie accepted one bail in £lOO
instead of two in £5O, and, the recognizances having
been entered into, the prisoner was liberated.
