THE POISONINGS IN ESSEX.
A communication having been made to Sir G. Grey by
Mr. Collins, clerk to the magistrates of Saffron Walden, in
consequence of a letter which Sarah Chesham (who is now a
prisoner in Chelmsford Gaol, charged under the coroner's in-
quest with the murders of Joseph and James Chesham) in-
trusted to the matron of the gaol to:post to Mr. T. Newport,
farmer of Clavering, and which was forwarded to the com-
mitting magistrates, and by them to the Secretary of State's
office, Inspector Shackell, of the metropolitan force, was sent
down to Clavering to assist the local authorities in capturing
Mr. T. Newport, and in the collection of evidence in the case.
Mr. T. Newport was apprehended on the 15th instant, and
on Friday last underwent an examination before Lord Bray-
brooke and Mr. Birch Woolfe on the charge of aiding and
abetting Sarah Chesham in administering poison to Soloman
Taylor, the illegitimate child of Lydia Taylor.
From the evidence of Lydia Taylor, it appeared, that
whilst she lived in the service of the mother of Newport, she
became with child by him, and that he urged her to take
drugs to procure abortion, which she refused to do. A month
after the birth of the child, Sarah Chesham went to see her,
said Newport was a good-for-nothing fellow, and promised
to call again. She did call again, in a month or two after,
at the house of Lydia Taylor, and brought some tea, apple-
dumplings, butter, &c. She took the child up in her arms,
when it became sick, and she said she had given it a piece
of sugar. She then begged Lydia Taylor to call on her at
Clavering, and bring the child with her. She did so, when
Chesham said she would take the child to its father,tnok _ and
r
ran across a field with it. Taylor followed, and overtook

of the child, the lips of which were smeared with what looked
like ointment. She said she had given
