The inquiry into the circumstances of the death
of Annie Burnham, otherwise Copeland, who was
shot, as alleged, by her husband, at Isleworth; on
the evening of Thursday, the 7th inst., was resumed
yesterday, before Mr. Jas. Bird, coroner for West
Middlesex, at the Chequers Inn, near the Union
Workhouse, Twickennam-road.
The Coroner read over the evidence given at the
previous hearing ; and
Mrs. Sarah Barnham, the mother of the deceased
woman, said, iu addition to her former statement,
that since Copeland (her deceased daughter's pre-
sumed husband) had returned from Ireland he had
frequently threatened to murder her.
Rosina Barnham, the sister of the deceased, added
to her former evidence that she could not recollect
the size of the bullets, but she remembered that they
were in a very rough unfinished state.
The Coroner said that evidence would be forth-
coming from the place where the supposed murderer
had been last at work, at Petersfield, where he virt?,
seen casting some bullets in the sand, which, It
proved, would be exceedingly material, as account-
ing for the state in which the last witness saw thew-
In reply to the Jury,
Rosina Barnham said that Copeland took the
bullets out of a single pocket when he showed them
to her, and made some remark about no one being
able to see him take them out or put them in,
The Postman, who met the supposed murderer
after hearing the gun-shot on the night of the 7th,
confirmed the previous statement he had made.
The Coroner then called
Ephraim Caughtrey, ostler at the Chequers, Whe,
deposed to having seen the deceased woman an
the alleged murderer when they partook of some
ale at the public-house in question. He knew the
woman and the dress of the alleged murderer cor-
responded with his apparel as described by the
mother and sister of the deceased woman.

Inspector Rigarisford said that he had no further
evidence to produce.

The Coroner left it to the jury to say whether
they would return a verdict of wilful murder against
some person or persons unknown, or adjourn the
inquiry ; and the latter course being considered
most advisable, was adopted accordingly.

SUICIDE THROUGH THE ILLNESS OF

A WIFE.

Yesterday Dr. Lankester, the Central Middlesex
coroner, held an inquest at the Torriano Aro3o
Tavern, Torriano-avenue, Kentish-town, touching
the death of Mr. Charles Josiah Wade, aged 41
years, residing at No. 41, Torriano-avenue.
Mrs. Maria Wade, mother of deceased, identified
the body, and deposed that he had been depressed
in spirits for some time past, owing to the protracted
illness of his wife, whose death was now hourly
expected. On Wednesday night last he retired to
his bedroom, seemingly not more depressed than
usual. On the following morning he did not make,
his appearance at breakfast t.s usual, and she Went
into his room, and was horrified at the sight of her
son lying dead on the floor and a pistol near him.
He was doing a very flourishing business as a baker,
and resided in a private residence in independent
circumstances. There was no reason to suppose that
anything else preyed upon his mind but the long
illness of his wife. He often complained of sleep'
lessness.

Dr. Part, of No. 7, Camden-road-villas, deposed
that he was called to the deceased, and found hits
lying on the floor of his bedroom on the left side of
the bed, with a quantity of blood about the breast
of his night-shirt, in which he was attired. Death
was occasion by a circular wound in the left side of
the chest, between the fourth and fifth ribs, evl'
dently made by a pistol bullet. A pistol (produced)
was near him on the left side. His position was
such that witness had no doubt that he died from
a pistol shot fired by his own hand.
The Jury returned a verdict of " Suicide frau
temporary insanity."
