warrant from Tothill-hells PriFon, Westminster, in
which she had been suffering

orage a term of imprisonment
Mr. Joseph Samuel Lavies, a member of the Colege
of Surgeons, stated that he was the medical officer at
present, doing duty for the gsatleman who nOw holds
that appointment at the Prison.' It was his duty to
inspzct the whole of the prisoners and to attend to all
such as were sic!e. Oe the 21st of September, on
being informed that the prisoner was unwell, he went
to the prisoner's cell, and inquired how she
was, when she flew at him, struck him a vio-
lent blow on the side of the. head, tore his
cap with her nails, and kicked him. On the 2,1
of October she again struck him on the face, and a day
or two afterwards she emptied the filthy conter,t3 of a
cell-vessel over the lower part of his dress. Complainant
