Charlotte Taylor
...stated, that she was nine years
married, and had two children now living. On
'the 14th of April last, having occasion -to go
to Newington Butts to see . a friend, she went to
the house of the Defendant and received two one
pound notes from him as wages due to
,her hus.
band. She happened at that time to mention
that she was going to the place she had already men,
tioned, When site came to the White Horse Cel.
tar in Piccadilly by the stage coach, she was sue.
prised to see the. Defendant had come to town at

the
.same time by another conveyance. The De.
fendar t followed -seer from thence to 4 variety of
other }laces as she desctibed. At length wishing to
return Grime, anti being disappointed in' her hope of
focerine! ith a return Chaise, she walked to Ham-
mersmith ; the Defendant still continued 'to follow
her. Mal) she came into that town she went into
the Windsor Castle Inn to try if sl)e could meet
with a chaii,e there. The Defendant went into the
parlour al,‘llg with het.' She was again disappointed
of rn..eting will) a NA -chaise.. The Defendant and
she, I wever, had some rum and water together.

The witness proceeded to dq,046 as to the mode
in which the' aiiault war attempted to be orrimitted.;
hut as her testimony was not borne okit, and as the
Defendant -was actinittrd, we think it unn'teessary
to give any statement of the remaining i!art of her
evidence.
J. B. Taylor, the husband of the prosecutrix, ad.
milted that she had not informed him of what had
pas.,ed till about the sth of August. In September
he went to an attorney, and the indiamtnt was pth.
ferred in the course of November..
Mary; Morly, cha!nbermaid at the Windsor Cas.
Ile, that the Defendant went up stairs first,
the Witness fallowed with a candle, and the Lady
immediately after. the then left them a candle,
suppofing them to be man and wife. There were
other chambers on the same floor, so that if any
noise was made it must have been heard.
I.ilargatet Rose, 'wife of a man who Worked in the
same shop with the husband of the Prosecotrix, re.
lated some incoherence in the different stories
which the Proseguitix had told her of the circum. '
stances.
