POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day.
•
MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

A WIFE INCITING A MAN TO ASSA ULT HER HUSBAND.—
James King, of No. 7, Porter-street, Soho, described as
an engineer, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with as-
saulting Mr. John Jennings, a dairyman, of No. 5, Porter-
street, Soho.

W. E. Dillon Lewis, of Great Marlborough-street, ap-
peared for the complainant, and said that a few days ago
the complainant, who lived unhappily with his wife in
consequence of her dissipated habits, was charged at this
court with assaulting his wife, that Mr. Knox, who heard
the case, seeing that it was a trumped-up charge, dis-
charged the complainant. On Saturday night the defen-
dant went to the complainant's shop and demanded
a shawl belonging to his sister-in-law., which he
alleged had been lent to his wife. Ho was told by
the complainant that he would not get it, and he left,
but returned in about an hour accompanied by the com-
plainant's wife, and, without saying a word, struck the
complainant in the face, there being little doubt that he
had some sharp instrument in his hand at the time, as the
complainant's face and hand were cut, the complainant's
wife standing by all the time inciting tho defendant to
assault her husband by crying out, "Give it him, give it
him well."

The complainant gave evidence which fully bore out
Mr. Lewis's statement, and he further said that his hand
was cut in protecting his face. lie believed the prisoner
had assaulted him at the instigation of his wife.
The defendant said he merely went to the house to ask
for his sister-in-law's shawl, which had been lent to the
complainant's wife to enable her to attend the court last
week.

Mr. Tyrwhitt said it was a violent assault, and he should
fine the defendant 40s. or a month.

Mr. Lewis said he had to apply for a summons against
the wife of the complainant for assaulting him.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said he thought as she had incited the
defendant to assault her husband she ought to be sum-
moned, and granted one.
