It becomes out neeess4ry and painful duty to
record the per pemition of an atrocionA act,, origi-
fluting fromtmutual circumstances of intoxicAtion
and ungovernable passion in the party, viz. Mr.
Henry ilcilant, and Nary, his wife, who carried
on a respectable business in the straw bonnet line,
situated in Bath. It seems, the deCeased, Henry-
Adlam, had indulged in 'habits of drunkenness, in
which•state on Wednesday afternoon he entered
the room adjoining the'shop, where Mrs. Adlam
was then ,at tea; mutual recriminations ensued,
whesn Mrs. A. highly irritated by his calling her
w--e, laid hold of a knife, followed her husband
into the shop, threatening and provoking him to
cal her w:—c- again, which he having repeated,
she inflicted a fatal wound in the" upper part of the
arm, dividing the main artery. The previously
intemperate and inflamed state of his blo4d
baffled surgical skill, as he died on Thursday
evening. On Frithty the-Jury returned a:verdict
of " Petty Treuson, or %Vilful Murder," against
Mary Adlam, who was fully committed to Defies-
fief gaol.
