consistency and clearness. It appeared that the criminal's
name was Thomas Parton, his ago sixty-four, and he was
sentenced to seven years' transportation in the year 1818 to
Van Diemen's Land, where he became free and resided seine
years, though latterly he had been living in the bush in this

Colonel Ravenshaw, and met with a woman named Elizabeth
Howell, at Dorchester, Oxon, who was cognisant of the fact

he, in order to frustrate her purpose, at once felled her with
a stick, and afterwards stabbed her; she died, and he im-
mediately started for London : there was no witness of the
deed. He also confessed that ho had afterwards murdered a
