Mr. Cairns inquired whether any witness could be
produced who witnessed the violence in the prisoner's
room ?—Sergeant Wilks said he could bring forward
his son and his daughter. The prisoner said nothing
when he was taken into custody.
The prisoner expressed his anxiety to speak in his
def-flce.

Mr. COMBS told him he would be remanded, and he
had better reserve what he had to say. He would be
eventually committed for trial.
The prisoner said his wife fell down stairs from top
to bottom and pulled him after her, and that was the
way she got her bruises.
Mr. COMM then remanded the prisoner, with in-
structions to Sergeant Wilks to produce all the neces-
sary evidence by the next examination.
