THE ALLEGED PI?OFLIGACY A 7
BE7HNAL-G.REEN WORKHOUSE.

Yesterday afternoon, at a meeting of the Board
of Guardians at the Bethnal-green Workhouse, the
following letter was read without discussion, and
ordered to be entered on the minutes :

" Poor-law Board, Whitehall, S.W.,
17th November, 1862.

" am directed by the Poor-law Board to inform
you that they have carefully considered the evidence taken
by Mr. Cane on the inquiry into the charges pretlerred
against Mr, Meyrick, the master of the workhouse at Bath-
nal-green.
" The Board regret to find that the evidence, although.
taken upon oath, is directly conflicting upon all the several
facts of the cases, and the Board find it difficult in conse—
quence, from merely reading the depositions, to come to
any satisfactory conclusions as to the credibility of the wit-

nesses.
" Under these circumstances, the Board deem it
right to rely upon the opinion of Mr. Cane, who bad the
opportunity of bearing the evidence given, and of observing
the demeanour of the witnesses, and thereby of judging of
the credit due to their statements ; and, on this ground, the
Board adopt his conclusions that the charges against Mr.
Meyrick have not been substantiated.—l am, &c.,

(Signed) "W. G. LUMLEY, Assistant Secretary.
To Mr. Howard, Clerk to the Board of Guardians,
Bethnal-green Workhouse."
