BEFORE MR. LENNARD.

Michael Edward Fell, who claimed for a freehold house,
Park-lane, Mitcham, was, objected to, on the ground of
his having (as it was alleged) let the property during the
last twelve months. But as it could not be proved that
there was any interruption of tenantcy, the vote was al-
lowed, Mr. Lennard laying it down that a mere permissive
occupation was no disqualification.

FATAL STAGE-COACH ACCIDENT

Yesterday an inquest was held in the Board-room of St
George's Hospital, Hyde Park-corner, before Mr. Higgs,
on view of the body of Mrs. Eliza Vasey. aged 50, a respec-
table married female, whose death was caused by the upset-
ting of the Telegraph Worcester coach, under the following
circumstances :

The calamity was not solely confined to the death of the
unfortunate lady, the coachman and several other passengers
being more or less injured ; one female having been removed
with the deceased to the above institution, where she re-
mained some days, and then was removed to her own resi-
dence. On the arrival of the Coroner, the Beadle banded
him a medical certificate from Mr. PastOr, a surgeon, resid-
ing at Oxford, stating that Fossey the coachman was so se-
verely injured (several of his ribs having been fractured)
that he was unable to take a journey to give evidence at
the inquest on the deceased.—Mr. Charles Hawkins,
house-surgeon to the hospital, deposed that the deceased
was admitted on the 31 of last August, with a severe
lacerated injury on the left node ; she received every
proper attention, but notwithstanding amputation of the
limb was deemed indispensably requisite as the only
hope of preserving life ; the operation, however, proved
too much for her constitution, and she rapidly sunk,
and died on Sunday last.—Joseph Collett, the guard to the
coach, deposed that they left the Bull and Mouth Inn about
six o'clock on the evening of the 3d of August ; there were
eleven outside and four inside passengers, exclusive of Wit-
ness and the coachman ; there was a quantity of luggage on
the roof of the coach, which reached to the height of the
passengers' heads;. the coach proceeded at the usual rate
until it arrived at Hanwell, in Middlesex, where the axle-
tree broke, the result of which was that the near fore wheel
came off, and the coach fell over on the near-side ; the whole
of the passengers were precipitated into the road ; witness
escaped with a few slight contusions ; the deceased and
other injured parties were removed into the Coach and
Horses, nearly opposite to where the accident happened,
and three surgeons promptly attended, and having rendered
every assistance, the deceased and another female were re-
moved the same night to this Hospital ; Fossey, the coach-
man, had several ribs broken, and received other severe in-
juries ; when the coach overturned, the deceased was sitting
behind the coachman. The husband of the deceased, a re-
spectable middle-aged man, who was present and appeared
,deeply affeAed, was asked if he bad any questions to put
to the witness, who replied in the negative. The Jury re-
turned a verdict of Accidental Death—deodand Is.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

MARYLEBONE.

Charles Goodlad, a vender of water-cresses, who, on the

. „
night of Monday week last, was charged at this office with
the wilful murder of his wife, Sarah Goodlad, aged 65, was
brought up from the New Prison, Clerkenwell, yesterday,
and placed at the bar for re-examination.

A Coroner's Inquest was on Wednesday last held on
the body of the deceased, when, the parish surgeon refusing
to make a post mortem examination without being paid
for it, the Jury returned a verdict "that the deceased died
of inflammation of the lungs, caused by a broken rib."
Mary Ann Goodlaa,- aged 21, the prisoner's daughter,
resided with the deceased and the prisoner, at No. 2,
Smith's-buildings, Bell-street, Lisson-grove. On the night
of Thursday, the 10th of September, she returned home,
and, on going into the parlour, found her mother, who was
sitting on the bed, and the prisoner quarrelling. Prisoner
desired deceased to go to bed, in reply to which she said,
" No, you old ,1 won't." The prisoner then took 'up
a half quartern loaf from off the table and threw it at her,
and it struck her in tbq sign. The deceased .did not com-
plain till she went to bed, when she said to witness, who
slept with her that night, " I think he has broken my ribs."
In the morning the prisoner, who had sat in a chair all night,
went out as usual, and after breakfast deceased went to the
dispensary, where she was told that one of her ribs was bro-
ken. She returned home; and the next day took to her
bed, where she lingered till Saturday, the 19th, when she
expired, a few minutes previous to which she called the pri-
soner to the bedside, and, offering her hand, said she for-
gave him for what he had done.
Rachael Read, the wife of a •shoemaker, No. 36, Bell-
street, saw the deceased on her return from the dispen-
sary, when she said, " That old villain has killed me at
last—he has broken my ribs." Witness saw her no more
alive. _ _

Mr. RAwoNsoN asked the prisoner if he had any-thing
to say ? Prisoner--Nothing.
Mr. RAwLiNsoN— Then you are fully committed to
Newgate fnr trial ; but I tell you that, happily, it will not
affect your life.
The prisoner, who seemed very dejected, was then re-
moved to the lock-up.
