am not quite sure about that date. I recollect the occasion
when some of Mrs. llowley's hair was cut off. Miss Bishop
was present when that circumstance occurred. Ni's

Bishop is Mrs. Rowley's sister.
By the Magistrate—Wo arrived at Frankfort about 4
o'clock in the afternoon. I can't be sure about the tree.
There was a substantial tea served on the occasion, and

there might have been salt on the table.
Examination continued—When Mrs. Rowley came down
to breakfast on this occasion she said she had been a long
time dressing her hair. I remonstrated With her, when she
said, "If I did not like it had better cut it off." I can-
not say whether there was one or two curls. 1 cannot say
whether I cut the whole of the back hair off. When I went
to fetch the scissors she was sitting in a chair. when I re-
turned she was in the same chair and in the same position.
cannot say whether I cut the whole off or not, but I cut it
off by her wish. I did not hold her hands. She never
held up her hands to prevent me cutting it off. She; id
not resist in the slightest. I did no wore than cut the de
curls off. There wore servants about,Bishop and I believe the
door of the apartment was o en. Miss
during the hole of the proceeding. I never tried to 011
her out of bed. She got out of her own accord. She had
nothing on but her night-gown. She ran down stairs and
ants
implored the protection of my valet. Tho other sere
came up and asked what was the matter. I had not used or
threatened her with personal violence. Tho slightest coy
wag present
wh
tradiction would cause hysterics It is most decidedly' uno
-
true to say I took up a meat chopper, and threatened t
strike her if she did not retire up stairs, but I daressy they
(Mrs. Rowley and her maidservant) will say I did se.
While living at Boulogne I paid her debts. It is false to
say I never gave her a single sixpence.
By the Magistrate—Mrs. Rowley had no separate settle
ment. She never had any occasion for any pocket monel
from me. She always wore a green leather bag round 11,
waist, which contained £1,500. I never controlled her.
she wished to spend any of this £1,500 she did so. It wag

her own monei.
Examination continued—l had brain fever while I wail
at Boulogne, and Mrs. Rowley said she would send
for a medical man, as I had said I would cut InY thrt
I never prevented my wife writing to her friends. I
dictated the terms of the letters no more than saying " 6'y
my love, &c." From Boulogne we returned to Eliglan:
During the time I was at Ryde I acted towards Mo.
ley with kindness. I never illtreated her.' I went to
shot to study, in order to pass my examination for the 16$::
Lancers. The letters put into my hands are in Mrs. ,1°
Y.
ley's handwriting. [Many of these letters were 101
Mr. SleigMet in his openin statement.]
Mr. h calfe asked for g copies, but it was exiling eu
any person on the part of Mrs. Rowley might insP7
them. f the
It being now past four o'clock, the further heariug °-
