lano Gaol, for the wilful murder of Jane Sax, a child
aged six years. The culprit, who was scarcely '2O years of
age, was tried and found guilty of the capital offence at the
last Kingston assizes. The only education he had was
that which he acquired during the time he was in prison,
to which he was first committed in June last. The length
of the imprisonment is accounted for by the postponement
of his trial at the last summer assizes.
