THAMES.—ALLEGED BRUTALITY OF A HUSBAND
TO HIS WIFE.—SINGULAR CASE.—THE WIFE OF
MANY HUSBANDS.—John Planter, a tali, gentlemanly-
looking man, about 50 years of age, was brought up on a
warrant before Mr. Selfe, charged with assaulting and beat-
ing Mary Planter, his wife, a woman who is well known in
this court, and whose repeated quarels with one of her hus-
bands, and the repeated summonses against them by sailor
boarders, have been often the subject of discussion.
Mrs. Planter, who is about the same age as the prisoner,
was fashionably attired. She stated that her husband was
formerly a mariner, and that she was now the landlady of
the Blacksmiths' Arms, Brook-street, Ratcliff. She married
the defendant three years ego, and she was then a widow,
and possessed of £450. The prisoner soon expended
the greater part of it in dissipation. He at last
persuaded her to take a public-house, and promised to
be careful and not spend her money. When they took the
Blacksmiths' Arms he began to ill-use her and beat her.
He pawned her plate, raised £l5 upon it, and remained
away for a fortnight. He beat her and kicked her in a most
brutal manner on Friday week last, and would have
murdered her but for the interference of her servant. She
found him a few days ago, and in company with a young
prostitute, near the Surrey Theatre. She asked him for her
watch, which he refused to give ber, and kicked her on the
back, for which she took out a warrant His inhumanity had
ben very great, and he was once committed for one mont h
by Mr. Yardley, for a savage assault upon her.
In cross-examination by the defendant, Mrs. Planter said
ehe had been married to four husbands, and did not know
what bad become of two of diem. One of them, named Jack
Hands was in Australia. She had indicted him for bigamy
at the 'Central Criminal Court, anti he was acquitted. She
might have lived with one only a fortnight. Would not
swear she hail not lived with other men. She gave the pri•
soner into custody at Bow-street.
Mr. Selfe—What for ?
The complainant fenced with the question a long time,
and then admitted that it WAS for steeling her watch.
Mr. Selfe—Don't you know your husband can't be
charged with robbing you?
Mrs. Planter—Well, I don't know.
Mr. Planter said he had been inveigled into an unfor-
tunate marriage with an infamous woman, and once con-
victed, on perjured evidence, of an assault. This was an
attempt on the part of the woman and her servant to get
him hack to the house.
Mr. Selfe—One would rather think the woman would be
glad to get rid of you. I can't place much reliance on what
she says after the manner in which she has given her evi-
dence.
Anna Sullivan confirmed the evidence of her mistress as
to the beating an 1 kicking.
Roche, the gaeler of the c .urt, knew that Mrs. Harris—
he meant Planter—lied nine husbands—(sensation)—but
con'd not say she was married to all of them. She bad hien
at that court for defrauding sailors, and because li (Roche)
relived her true character she had threatened hien,e and was
held to bail by Mr. Yardley.
Mr. Selfe knew the complainant too well 'in that court.
No good could result in the defendant ever living with his
wife. He held him to bail to keep the peace in his own
recognisance, and advised him to g.) to .9ea
