THE MURDER NEAR AYLESBURY.

(FURTHER PARTICULARS.)
As soon as the murder was known, intelligence
of the event was sent to Aylesbury, and to Ashton Clinton,
about a mile and a half further, where Mr. Minshull of Bow-
street, who has a house there, was immediately called up ;
and, on receiving information of the circumstance, lost not a
moment in proceeding to the spot, where he was soon joined by
an immense numbet of persons from the surrounding coun-
try. The greater part of these persons he forthwith swore
in as special constables, and dispatched them in every direc-
tion, with instructions to apprehend all suspicious persons
whom they might meet. All were zealous in their ellorts to
attain the ends of justice, and some on foot, and some on horse-
back, scoured the neighbourhood for miles around. Messen-
gers were then sent to the resident magistrates near to the
spot, whose co-operation was as promptly afforded. Among
others to whom intelligence was thus sent was the Earl of Bridge-
water, near to Berkhampstead. The Noble Earl happened
at the moment to be on a visit to his neighbour, Lord Ire-
rulam ; but his Secretary, Mr. Atty, who was resident in his
Lordship's mansion, at once went to the village of Gaddesden
to alarm the villagers ; at the same moment, the constables
who had been in pursuit arrived, and they reached the Bridge-
water Arms together. This was about eight o'clock. Mr.
Atty communicated the cause of alarm to Mr. Bennett, the
landlord, who, the moment he heard of it, observed that three
suspicious persons were then in his taproom—two men and a
wonian—whose appearance almost induced him at once to pro-
nounce them the murderers. Inquiry was instantly com-
menced, and it turned out that this group had been regaling
themselves on • beef-steaks, which they had purchased of a
butcher in the village, and for which, it afterwards appeared,
they had paid all in halfpence. They had bundles with them,
and it was remarked that the woman, on seeing herself closely
observed, retired to the privy. [This circumstance has not yet
led to any particular search.] The whole three were then se-
cured, and from their manner,' as well as unsatisfactory ac-
counts of themselves, they were detained till the arrival of the
Magistrates. In the course of the morning the Earl_of Bridge-
water, the Rev. James Horseman, and 'the Rev. Mr. Jenks,
all Magistrates, reached the spot, and diligently and acutely
examined the prisoners 'separately, when such contradictions
arose in their statements, that the former suspicions were con-
firmed; and those suspicions received still further confirma-
tion on the arrival of Mr. James Sheriff, the gaoler of Ayles-
bury prison, and other witnesses, who recognized the priSoners
as having been seen lurking about the country for some days
previously.
The bundles of the prisoness were searched, and many things
of a questionable character were discovered. They stated their
names to be James &oleo-, Thomas Randall, and Margaret
Barnacle. In the end they were ordered to be confined in se-
parate apartments, and their' examination was adjourned to
Thursday.
On interrogating the woman, as well as from testimony ob.-
tained, it appeared that she had been acquainted with one of
the male prisoners for'nearly a twelvemonth, and with the other
she said but for a few days. It further appeared, that on the
night of the murder, they had all been seen together on the
road, and that the woman had slept at Berkhampstead, where
the men left her at eight o'clock, saying, " they must be gone
on as job which would fetch them a hundred pounds." -On se-
parating, she said she exhorted them " not to commit murder."
By agreement.they met on the morning of Wednesday, at an ap-
pointed place. The woman declared, that " she must not tell
all she knew, lest she should be murdered herself;" and she
has since been as taciturn as possible, although from her manner
there is no doubt she will ultimately tell all she knows—a know-
ledge which, it is feared, will have reference to other murders
which have long remained involved in mystery.
On Friday •a numerous bench of Maghtrates, among whom
we noticed the Earl of Bridgewater,:Lord Clarendon, Mr.
Dorine, the Rev. Mr. Horseman,' the Rev. Mr. Jenks, and
others, assembled at the King's Arms, Berkhampstead, where
they renewed their investigation. Mr. Sheriff was again in at-
tendance, and produced further conclusive evidence.. Ruthven,
from Bow-street; was also present.
At four o'clock they were conveyed in separate chaises to
Aylesbury, in the custody of Mr. Sheriff, Ruthven, and the
local constables. On their way to ptison, they had to pass by
the scene of guilt, and Mr.-Sheriff, by direction of the Ma-
gistrates, took the two men separately into the room where
the bodies of the murdered persons lay. Croker first enter-
ed. The bodies had been placed in separate coffins; the lids
of which were then removed. Croker could scarcely' be prevailed
upon to look at them, and was perfectly silent. It was a sight,
in fact, to appal the heart of the most innocent. The appear-
ance of the bodies, although washed as they had been from the
stains of blood, was most terrific. Randall was next introduced.
He exclaimed, " that it was a dreadful spectacle ; and thanked
GOD that he had no hand in their death." It is conjectured in
fact that Croker inflicted the fatal wounds ; and it further turns
out that a horse had been taken from the adjoining field, and
brought to the gate, as an inducement for Mrs. Needle to come
forth. This she promptly did, and at this moment it is be-
lieved she was instantly knocked down, and the remaining work
of death and plunder was completed. The body of Mrs.
Needle, from its muddy state, there is ro doubt was subse-
quently dragged in, and placed in the room with that of her
husband.
At 5 o'clock the prisoners reached Aylesbury, and were
safely lodged in,the gaol in sparate cells. The curiosity exciled

on this occasion was intense, and the crowd assembled beyond
calculation.

CORONER'S INQUEST.
Friday morning, pursuant to adjournment, an Inquest was
held at the White Hart tavern, Aylesbury, before John Chers-
'ley, Esq. Coroner for the county of Bucks, on the bodies of
Rebecca and Edward Needle, above alluded to. The Jury
consisted of twelve resptctable farmers, inhabitants of the town
of Aylesbury : and the Rev. Messrs. Ashfield and Archer,
Magistrates for the county, were present to hear the evidence.
Mr. Wm. Hayward being sworn, said he was a surgeon, re-
siding at Aylesbury. He was called upon to inspect the bodies
of the deceased, Edward and Rebecca Needle, at 11 o'clock in
the morning, on the '2oth inst., in company with Mr. John
Blissett, his assistant. It appeared to witness that the wounds
were inflicted with the edge of a blunt or flat instrument or
bludgeon.
Mr. John Blissett, assistant to last witness, confirmed the
above testimony.
Joseph Davies was the next witness examined : being sworn,
he stated, that at about a quarter after eight o'clock on Wed-
nesday morning last, he was going to fetch his master's horse,
which was in a field near the toll-gate. On passing by the de-
ceased's house, the gate was open. He usually passed that way
every morning at the same hour, and the toll-keeper was al-
ways there. On passing by he saw the deceased, Rebecca
Needle, laying on the f100r... He gave the alarm immediately,
because he thought the woman dead. Witness opened the
door of the toll-house ; and when Mr. Wyatt, the proprietor of
the Aylesbury coach, drove up, he informed him of what he
had seen. Witness was frightened, and did not go into the
toll-house to see the body of Edward Needle, but he afterwards
heard that he was dead. The woman was covered with blood
and bruises. _ _ _

Wtlliam Speed, Joseph Hill, and Jams Tame, deposed to
the circumsances attending the discovery of the murder.
Charles White knew the two deceased persons. He passed
through the gate on the evening preceding the murder, and
then conversed with Mr. Needle, who was employed by the
trustees of the toll. He did not see Mrs. Needle.

Charles Finch being sworn, said that he is a labourer. and re-
sided at Ashton Clinton, Bucks. He was employed on the
turnpike-road between Ashton Clinton and Aylesbury. On
Monday last, about half past 10 o'cloCk, he was at work some
distance from Weston turnpike, where the murdered person s
resided. He then saw two men (now in custody) on the road ;
they proceeded in the.direction of Mr. Senior's meadow, not far
from the toll-house. Their appearance was very suspicious.
One of them was a short thick man, and be carried a bundle
under his arm ; the other was a tall man, who walked lame,
and wore a light coloured fustian frock coat. He walked with
a black thorn stick. He was lame of the right leg. He wore
ankled shoos, and was a dark-looking man ; and passed by
witness three times in the course of the morning. He turned in
his toes when he walked. The short man was well made. The
bundle was tied up in a light coloured handkerchief, He wore'
a light coloured drab cloth coat, with light worsted cord
breeches, which came over the calves of his legs. It was a single
breasted coat; and he was very pale in the face. Witness did
not speak to them when they passed him. When they got
about a furlong from the Weston-gate, they turned to the left
into a meadow, and moved on towards the back of the toll-
house. At about five o'clock he saw the same persons walking
in the directiOn of 'Weston-gate, from Ashton Clinton, in the
same dress • and the short man was carrying the same bundle,
and the.talf man had the same stick. The next time he saw
them was on Tuesday, at half-past ten, when a woman was
in their company, and they still wore the same clothes, and
carried the stick and bundle. The woman was in their
rear,land the short man stopped on the road for her. They
were then about a mile from Weston-gate, and going along
the turnpike-road towards Ashton Clinton. 'Witness thought
they looked very ruffianly fellows, and said to his compa-
nion, " I should not like to meet them on a dark night,"
meaning that he would be afraid of being robbed. Wit-
ness had seen the prisoners at Lord Bridgewater's tavern,
Gaddesden, when he was examined before his Lordship
and a bench of Magistrates. When he beheld them, he im-
mediately recognized them as the persons he saw on the road
near Weston-turnpike. His attention was impressed in con.:
sequence of their desperate Appearance. • When he saw them
at Gaddesden on Wednesday, they were dressed in differ-
ent apparel, but he still knew them. He saw them again on
Thursday, being examined at the same place, when the men'
denied having passed • that way ; but the woman expressed
that she saw them at work ; and again, by way of correcting
herself, said she never saw them before. A gentlemen asked
her why she did not say what she knew about the murder. She
answered, that if she was to .tell all she knew about it, they
would murder her. He asked the " tall" man whether they
had not seen them (witness and his mate) at work on the Mon.;
day ; this person would not. answer, but the " short" one de-
nied it, saying he did not go that way on Monday.
A Juryman.—Did you make him understand what part off
the road you were alluding to ?—Yes, I mentioned near Mr.
Senior's. He also denied having gone into the field.
Elisha Horn, labourer.—About a month ago witness saw the
same men now in custody; and could swear to their faces ; they
passed him on the road on 'Wednesday and Thursday last ;
when the short man passed bins a month ago he looked ruddy
and well, but the last time he saw him he seemed very ill and
distressed.
Mrs. Fanny Norris, of Aylesbury, stated, that on Tuesday
afternoon, about three o'clock, she went to Weston turnpike
toll-house to visit the deceased persons, with whom she had
tea. She left them about five o'clock, both well. She attended
on Friday to give evidence at Berkharupstead, when two men,
who were in custody on suspicion of having committed the
murder, were examined. Some property found on the pri-
soners was produced for her inspection by Mr. Sheriff, the
gaoler, by order of the Magistrates. Among the articles so
produced she identified a pipe-stopper, as having been the pro-
perty of Mr. Needle. It was formed f copper, and seemed to
be washed or plated with silver-: it. was round at one end, but
quite plain, and worn round the edges. The deceased always
used this tobacco-stopper for stamping parcels. Witness had
not seen it for the last twelve months; but is certain it is the
same site had seen with Mr. Needle. She had herself fre-
quently used it, having lived in' his service, for nearly four
years. The shoes and stockings, which formed a part of the
articles-found on the prisoners, resembled articles of the same
description which she had seen in the possession of the mur-
dered persons, but she could not' swear decisively that they
were the•same. • . . .

Dlr. Sheriff, the keeper of Aylesbury gaol, here produced the
whole of the property found on the prisoners, of which a pair
of leather gloves formed a part. The right hand one was
much worn, as if from the wearer having been accustomed to
walk with a stick. . _ _

The witness being questioned as to this latter point, said
that the neceased, Mr. Needle, generally walked with a stick,
and almost always wore only the right band glove.
Mr. James Sheriff, keeper of 'Aylesbury prison, was next
examined. He was present on Thursday at Little Gaddesden,
and on Friday at Berkhampstead, attending the xamination
of witnesses against James Uroker and Thomas Randall, the
persons accused of having murdered the deceased. In the
course of the examination on Friday, the following articles,
found on the prisoners, were committed to his care,by the Ma-
gistrates—viz. a pair of worsted stockings, a pair of leather
baces, a large clasp knife, a pair of leather gloves, a pair o f
sloes, a tobacco stopper, lffs. 6d. in silver, and 4d. in copper;
add numerous other .trilling articles. The prisoners did not
confess any thing relative to the murder in presence of the Ma-
gistrates,.but the result of the examination was, that they were
fully committed for trial on the charge of murder. Witness,
in the drawer of a desk at the, house of the deceased; found
some nails of two sorts, which answered the description of those
in the shoes found on the prisoners ; which shoes he believed
to have belonged to the deceased Edward Needle.
James Wyatt, of AylesbUry, driver of Mr. Hearns' coach,
deposed the discovery.of the murder.
The Inquest was then adjourned at eight o'clock, to Satur-
day morning at nine, for which day several fresh witnesses
were ordered to be summoned. _ _

Aylesbury, Saturday night. 1
The proceeding before. the Coroner were this 'morning re. I
aumed.
William Woods examined..—Liles near Ashton Clinton, at
the • house which was formerly the Weston-gatehouse ; it is
about a mile from the present gatehouse. __Was very intimate
with the deceased Edward Needle, and had known hint for 20
years. He frequently visited him, and saw him last on Sunday
week. He then shewed witness a pair of shoes, and said he was
about to put some hobnails in the heels, to prevent him from
slipping. The decased was in the habit of sitting with his
shoes down at the heel. On Thursday last witness.saw on a
desk in the house of the deceased, some nails similar to those
which the deceased said he intended to put in his shoes.
Mr. Sheriffagain produced the shoes found in the possession
of Croker and Randall. Witness was quite satisfied that the
shoes then produced were property of the deceased.--(They
were down at the heels, and had each three hobnails in the heel.)
—The deceased generally wore a glove on his right hand, and
walked with a stick.
William Clarke examined.—Lives at Tring, in the county or
Herts ; is a constable. On .Tuesday last saw a tall man and a
short man going through the town of Tring : the men had since
told witness their names were James Croker and Thomas Ran-
dall. The tall man had a light-coloured fustian jacket on, and
the short man a darker coloured cloth jacket, or short coat. On
the following morning witness heard of the murders, and went
in pursuit of the offenders. He proceeded to Gaddesden, and
at about half-past nine arrived at the Bridgewater Arms. He
there saw the same men he had seen the day before, in
company with a woman, and took them int. custody, with
the assistance of another constable.- In an hour afterwards
he searched James Croker, and found on his person a pair

of stockings, a pair of braces, plated copper tobacco-stopper, a
housewife, and various other articles. The tobacco-stopper
now produced was the same witness took from Croker ; the
white fustian jacket produced, witness took off Croker's back.
There were several marks of blood on the elbow and cuffs of the
right arm. The jacket- was very wet and dirty when he found
it, as if an attempt had been made to obliterate the marks;_ the
stains had been covered with clay or dirt ; there were also
bloody marks on the back. 'Witness -also saw bloody marks
on Croker's shirt. Croker had a large black thorne stick with
him. ➢lr. Sheriff was requested to take care of Croker's shirt,
which he still wore.

William Martin, another constable of Tring, confirmed the
testimony of William Clarke, and was with him when Croker
and Randall were apprehended. There was a bundle and a bag
lying on the table near Randall, which he claimed. Witness
searched him in a private room, and took off his coat and
neckerchief. The coat was short and straight, and of cloth,
with white metal buttons. Witness produced the coat : it bore
several marks of blood on the flap, sleeves, and breast ; at-
tempts had been made to efface these marks. There were also
marks of blood on the neckerchief, where it had been tied.
There were also matches and,candles found in the prisoner's
possession, together with api of white striped satin riband,
which was found' iri his pocket : on the bag which , Randall
claimed as his, there was a patch of blood.
Mr. Sheriff having taken off Croker's shirt, according to the
request of the Coroner, now produced it. There were spots of
blood on the right ann and breast.
Elisha Thorn, the witness who saw two men on the Monday
previous to the murder, near Weston-gate, examined the coats
now produced by the constable ; and had no doubt the cloth
coat produced by Martin and taken from Randall was the same
which 'one of the men wore. He also spoke to the coat taken
from Croker, and was sure that it was worn by the other man.
Maria Allen, living at Ashton Clinton, deposed, that she
knew the deceased Needle and his wife for many years.—
She liyed with them for three years, and during that time she
frequently saw the tobacco-stopper produded by Mr. Sheriff,
and found on Croker. Mrs. Needle used to seal the par-
cels in which slid sent the money collected at the toll with it.
She had no doubt it was the same. The piece'of riband found
in Randall's pocket was similar to some which Mrs. Needle
had worn ; but she could not swear to it.
Isabella Allen, sister of the last witness, also knew Needle
and his wife, and had lived with them a year and three quar-
ters. She perfectly recollected the tobacco-stopper produced
having been in their possession. Witness was at the toll-house
on Tuesday evening before the murder, and Was.asked by Mr.'
-and Mrs. Needle to stop with them the night; but having
business at home, she could not.
Mrs. Norris again examined.—Was acquainted with the de-
ceased and his wife. He was in the habit of wearing a glove on
his right hand similar to that now on the table. The shoes
produced were like his. He usually wore them down at the
heel of a night. -
Joseph Ribble, servant to Mr. Senior, Of Broughton, depos-
ed, that on Monday last, in the forenoon, he saw a tall man and
a short man in his masters grounds, near to the Weston turn-
pike gate.
Joseph White, of Broughton, a farmer, knew the deceased
Edward Needle : he was positive the shoes produced belonged
to him : he had seen them frequently on his feet, and especially
on last Monday. Witness had been bred a shoemaker ; and
there was something very peculiar in the form of the deceased's
foot. It was short and dubbed.
Joseph Itnpey, ostler at the Bridgewater Arms, Little Gad-
desden, stated, he saw the two men in custody at his master's
house on the morning of Wednesday last. They were accom-
panied by a woman. He saw the pair of shoes produced lying
on a bench in the tap-room, after the men came in. They
were not there . before, and no other person was in the tap-
room but the prisoners and the woman. It had been a wet morn-
ing, and they went to the fire to dry themselves. They asked'
if there was any cold meat in the house ? 'Witness said no,"
but told em there was a butcher's next door; one of them
went tothe butcher's, and returned with two pounds of beef
steaks. 'When the constables came in, the woman went out
to the yard. He heard the men converse together ; and
asked them where they come from, but they did not tell him.—
They all appeared to be much fatigued. The tall man was
lame. .

•
Charles Finch again examined.—He looked at the coats, the
stick, and the bundle produced. The cloth coat he was quite
sure was worn by the short man he had described as baying
seen•on Monday and Tuesday; and the fustian coat was that
worn by the tall man. The blackthorn stick he was likewise
satisfied was carried by the tall man, who was lame ; and the
bundle was the same as carrried by the short man. The men
he saw in the custody of the officers were those he saw on
the road. _ _ _ _

John Hingham, of Little Gaddesden, was next called, and
stated to the Coroner, that he was appointed to sit up with the
woman who was apprehended at Little Gaddensden with the
male prisoners. On the morning after her apprehension, she
said it was a sad thing to conceal any thing which she knew in
such an affair, and then casting her towards a pair of shoes
which were under the table, seemed as if she wished to say
something, Witness took up the shoes, and said they were
very like old Needle's shoes, who had a very particular shaped
foot. He asked the woman where she got them ? She said, as
she and the two men were coming along by Lord Bridgewater's
.Park palling, they sat down by a new lodge which his Lordship
is building, and had something to eat. James (the tall man,
Croker) took these shoes from his pocket, and handed them to
the other man, said "I-fere, Tom, is a pair of shoes that will
fit you." Tom took them and put them in his pocket, saying,
he would not put them on there. They then all went to the
Bridgewater Arms.
The Coroner said he could not receive this evidence, which
was merely hearsay, unless the woman was accused of the mur-
der, which was not the case. Whatever evidence was received
on this subject must come from the woman herself, who, as she
was under commitment, could not be called.
The witness then described the woman. She was short, with
good face, and very thick legs : he had not seen her with the
men. She said she was 25 years of age. Her name was Mar- '
tha Barnacle. He gave the shoes he saw under the woman to
Mr. Sheriff; the shoes produced were the same.
Thomas Wyatt, of the parish of Tring, labourer, deposed,
that on Wednesday morning last, about half-past two o'clock,
he saw the two men in custody, charged with the murder of
Needle and his wife, going very fast towards Tring, in the di-
rection from Weston-gate. Witness said " good morning" to
them, but they made no answer that he could understand.
William Appleton, a constable of Aylesbury, was put in charge
of the toll-house at Weston gate as soon as the murders were dis-
covered, and continued there till. after the prisoners had been
apprehended. He did not suffer any thing to be removed from
the premises, anti was sure the articles produced, as found on
the prisoners, were not in the house-while he was in charge.
Other witnesses were called, who proved the fact of the three
prisoners having been altogether at Tring, drinking on the
night of the murder ; and that at half-past eight o'clock the
two men set out towards Ashton Clinton, saying, "if they did
not make haste, they would he too late."
The inquest was again adjourned at four o'clock, to enable
the jury to dine : and on their re-assemblage at six, the Coroner
summed up the whole of the evidence with great perspicuity.
At half-past nine he closed his arduous labours, and the jury,
after a short consideration, returned a verdict of " Wilful ,
Murder against Thomas Randall and James Croker."—All the
witnesses were then bound over to pro'secute, and the inquest
adjourned.
' The bodies of the unfortunate people were buried on Satur-
day at Ashton Clinton. Several of their relatives followed
them to the grave ; and a large concourse of spectators were
likewise present on the melancholy occasion. The expellee is
borne by the trustees of the road. The bodies were in, plain
elm coffins, with black plates, containing their names and ages.
The constables by whom the prisoners were apprehended be-
come entitled to the rewards which have been -offered, amount-
ing to three hundred pounds.
The prisonersrfrom other property found in their possession,
it was evident, had been committing depredations in the neigh-
bourhood for some days before 'the murder, and, among other
crimes, broke into a shoemaker's house at Stone, from whence
they stole a quantity of leather.
Up to the express leaving Aylesbury on Saturday night,
neither the men nor the woman had made any direct admission
of the murders. •

ESCAPE FROM DURANCE.—On Thursday one of
the Coventry weavers, who, having, been brought up for judg-
ment,
and sentenced to nine month's imprisonment, was com-
mitted
to the King's Bench Prison, previous to his removal to
a county, goal, contrived to disguise himself,so as to elude the
vigilance of the turnkey at the lobby, and got clear off. Such
an instance has not occurred in the King's Bench since the me-
morable and still inexplicable escape of Lord COCHRANE.
On Monday a fisherman at Selsea caught'some
oysters, and returning late, laid them in an out-house. On
going thither the next morning, a rat was found to have intro-
duced his foot between the shells of a large oyster which closed
so firmly on it as to prevent his retreat : he paid the forfeit of
his life for his_temerity.
We are sorry to have to record an accident
which proved fatal to the son of the Rev. Mr. Crew of Hawar-
den. Th e young Gentleman, we believe, had been out with a
hunting party on the morning of Friday last, and was return.
ing home in the evening, when his horse, which had become
very restive, threw him ; a man, going on the Toad between
Holywell and Hawarden with his cart, in a shark time after,
plaited him up, but life was totally 'extinct. He has left a
young widow to lament the loss of an affectionate husband, and
the poor of Hawarden, by whom he was greatly beloved, a kind
friend.--(Chester Paper.)
