On Saturday Mr. Inspector Jenkins, of the E divi •
sion, in consequence of information received, went to the
house, No. 9, Bainbridge-street, St. Giles's, where he found
the dead body of a female in an advanced state of decomposi-
tion. Mr. Jenkins, it appeared, gave information to the pa-
rish authorities, who at once caused the body to be removed.
On inquiry, the inspector learned that, on the 3d instant, the
poor womtn was run over by an omnibus in Holborn, and that
she was taken to Middlesex Hospital, where she died of the
Injuries; and, on the 9th instant, an inquest was held, and a
verdict of " Accidental death" returned. The corpse was re-
moved to Bainbridge-street by the friends, who, from extreme
destitution, could not obtain the means for sepulture, and they
arc so ignorant that they did not know who to apply to upon
the subject. Three families, all Irish, lived in the house
where the body was lying.
On Friday last an old man, seventy years of age,
named William Bodycoat, by trade a framework-knitter re-
siding at lodgings in Sanvy-gate, Leicester, terminated his
existence by hanging himself. The deceased received 6d.
a week and a loaf from the parish at the time of his death, and
worked in his frame as far as he was able. It appeared from
the evidence at the Coroner's inquest, that the poor old men
had latterly been in a very desponding way on account of his
eyes failing him, fearing he should be unable to see to work by
candle-light as the winter came on. The Jury retuned a ver-
dict of " Temporary insanity."
0:i Thursday afternoon three fellows, one of them
without a hat, knocked at the door of Mrs. Lovard, No. 6,
Lady Lake's Grove, Poplar, and informed he: that, on paseir.g
by her garden, one of them had thrown over his Fon:pigeon's
hat into it, and stating that they would be obliged if she would
retch it. Mrs. Lovard at once went, leaving the deer open.
After looking about for some time in vain, she returned to the
door, but was surprised to find the applicants gene. Her SUR..
o'cions became excited?, and she examined the room teljinieeg
i:le door, is ben she found a double silver case watch and other
acticles seolen. One of the fellows vres apprehended is the
course of jesterday.
