THE REV. JAMES BONTVELL' S CASE.

COURT OF ARCHES.

THE BISHOP OF LONDON V. THE REV. JAMES BONWELL
(Before Dr. Lushington, Dean of Arches.
The promoter of this suit is the Bishop of London, an
the defendant, the Rev. James Bonwell, incumbent of Si
Philip's, Stepney, in his lordship's diocese.
Sir J. Harding, the Queen's Advocate, and Dr. Tristram
appeared for the Bishop. Mr. Bonwell conducted his own
case, assisted by Mr. Sorrell, his solicitor.
Sir J. Harding said he had little to say as to the opening
of the case, which he thought he should be able to prove.
With regard to two of the witnesses he should produce he
had to say that they had been in Mrs. Bonwell's service,
and were thus as it were brought out of the opposite camp.
(The learned advocate afterwards said he did not mean to
imply that the witnesses had been in Mrs. Bonwell's ser-
vice).
Mr. Bonwell said he was prepared to declare that the
evidence of the witnesses alluded to he could easily uoset if
they were called, Their evidence had been concocted, and
if they gave such evidence as was stated in the articles he
should certainly prosecute them for perjury. One of these
witnesses stated in the articles that iss Yorath wore a
nightcap. He had ascertained that Miss Yorath never
wore a nightcap.
Mr. Collis, a clerk in the Consistory Court, proved the
license of Mr.,Bonwell to the perpetual curacyof St. Philip's,
Stepney, on 11th April, 1845, vacant by the resignation of
the Rev. G. T. Duffield (now rector of Bow), on the nomi-
nation of the Principal and fellows of Brasenose College,
Oxford. He produced a certificate of Mr. Bonwell's mar-
riage with Miss Sophia Bird, at Christ Church, Bradford,
Yorkshire, on the Ist of January, 1839. Mr. Bonwell was
described in the certificate as a bachelor and a schoolmaster.
Mr. Humphreys, coroner of East Middlesex, gave an
account of an inquest held in September and October last
on the body of Philip Yorath, the child, out of whose death
the present inquiry arose.
Miss Georgiana Ames said she now resided in Bath with
Major Watts, her grandfather. She had known Elizabeth
Yorath for two-and-a-half years. She paid a visit to
Major Watts on the 12th of September, 1858, at Margate,
and left on the Ist of December. She knew a Mrs. Robin-
son at Margate. She recollected meeting Mr. Bonwell at
their house. That was the first time she had met him.
Miss Elizabeth Yorath was with her. She was not aware
that Miss Yorath had met Mr. Bonwell before. They became
acquainted on that evening, and talked together. After that
Mr. Bonwell called at her granlfather's house, when Miss
Yorath was there. He called on Miss Yorath. He called
frequently, and they were often in company together, She
had seen them sitting on the sofa together. She had seen
him put his arm on her shoulder and round her waist, but
she had not seen any improper conduct. This was not till
he believed he was engaged to her. From his general
conduct to her she supposed he was engaged to Miss Yorath.
He was exactly like an engaged lover to her, and Miss
Yorath told her that she was engaged to him,
Mr. Bonwell—That is not evidence.
The Judge—Certainly not.
Dr. Tristram—Did Mr. Bonwell ever tell you that he
was engaged to Miss Yorath? Witness—No.
Mr. Bonwell—l never told any lady so.
Examination continued—She did not remember that Mr.
Bonwell ever said anything about his being a widower.
Mr. Bonwell—lt shall come out in evidence that Miss
Yorath knew all the time that I was married
Examination continued--She remembered Mr. Bonwell
and Miss Yorath going together to Ramegat©. She thought
they went to Ramsgate two or three times while they were
all at Margate. Mrs. Robinson accompanied them, with,
oho thoughtit one exception. She believed they went alone
when Mrs. obinson did not accompany them. On that
occasion they went away between one and two o'clock in the
day, and returned between eight and nine in the evening.
She did not see Miss Yorath again until the Bth of June,
1859. She called at Major Watts' house in Margate, and
left on the neNt clay, She believed, from her appearance,
that Miss Yorath was pregnant.
Cross-examined by Mr. Bonwell—She did not remember
on what day it was she accompanied Miss Yorath alone.
Mr. Bonwell—What do you believe to be the distin-
guishing characteristics of an engaged person ?
Witless--a-You were very attentive to her.
Mr. Bonwell—l was very attentive to you, was I not?
Witness—Yes; but not so attentive to me as you were
to Miss Yorath. (Laughter.)
Mrs. Anne Robinson, wife of Mr. Henry Robinson, said
she was living at Margate in September, 1858, and was on
friendly terms with Miss Ames and Major Watts. She
made the acquaintance of Miss Yorath there at the time,
through Mill Araelz• lk 0 also made the acquaintan9l3
re!
Mr. Bonwell through having seen him at the Bedford
dto
Hotel. He was afterwards several times at their h.
of se
with Miss Yorath, and dined with them on the 14tbt
October. Mr. Bonwell's manner to Miss Yorath was v
W_e_rye
polite and gentlemanly. 1-le seemed pleased with her. I
