THE WATERLOO-BRIDGE MURDER.

Nothing whatever has been discovered which
warrants the hope that the perpetrators of this
crime will be speedily brought to justice. The
following letter has been forwarded to us from the
Superintt:ndent of Police at StafforJ, who fancies
that it contains a clue for the identification of the
murdered man :

"TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
" reference to the late horrible murder and
mutilation I respectfully beg to call your attention to the
Following

" Oa the 29th ultimo a person who gave the name o
Hugh Patterson called at the residence of Mr. John Lea
a respectable shoe manufacturer of this town, and pur
chased of him a large quantity of boots and shoes, for
which he paid. He stated that he had recently returned
from Melbourne, in Australia, where he kept a large
shoe ',hop. He said be intended going to London, and
from there to his native place in Scotland, where a boy
of his not lorg ago met with an accident which caused
his death, and that he might be again expected at Stafford
in about three weeks. He had a large carpet bag that
corresponded most minutely with the description given
of the one found on an abutment of Waterloo-bridge on
the morning of Friday last. When here he sad the bag
contained about 3,800 t. in gold, and asked both Mr.
and Mrs. Lea to lift it ; owing to which they had each
an opportunity of inspecting the same, and, as before
stated, they say it exactly corresponds with the one
found.

"He appeared between 30 and 40 years of age, and
about 5 fee., 7 or 8 inches high, dark hair, and dressed
in dark clothes, bat had other clothing ; it was noticed
that he had red lining in the sleeves of his coat, and the
legs or bottom of the trousers were very wide, He wore
a black silk necktie, and a shirt collar turned down. He
a!sl called at the manufactory of Messrs. Bostock and
Woolley, of this town ; likewise at the manufactory of
Mr. Bostock, of Stone, from each of whom he was about
on his return to make some large purchases. Their de-
scription corresponds with that given by Mr. and Mrs.
Lea, and they are all of opinion that the deceased is the
same person that was here.

"B a said he intended to call at Homan and Co.'s, 25,
Skinner-Areet, London.

" Snould I derive any further information I wi
appriee you thereof forthwith.

"In haste, yours very respectfully,
"M. RICHARDS, Chief of Police,
Borough of Stafford.

" P.S.—I have sent a copy of this to Mr.-Superintend
ent Durkin."

(Front, the Lancet )

By a concurrence of circumstances that might well cause,
the most careless to pause and think, there has, apparently,
just been brought to light the evidence of an atrocious
murder. A carpet-bag, containing portions of the remains
of a human being, was carried on to the north end of
Waterloo-bridge at half-past 11 o'clock last Friday night,
to be got rid of by letting the bag and its contents quietly
down into the water by means of a cord. This bridge and
this hour were undoubtedly selected because a person car-
rying a heavy bag could then cross without suspicion,
since a train started from the terminus of the South-
'Western Railway at a quarter to 12 o'clock. The bag was
to be lot down into the water, lest the splash occasioned
its being thrown over the parapet should be heard by watch-
men listening to the sounds which too often give notice that
" one more unfortunate, weary of breath," has sought re-
fuge in a watery grave. From one of the recesses of the
bridge the bag was carefully lowered until the strain was no
longer felt, and thou the cord by which it had been guided
was also allowed to fall. But this very excess of caution
defeated the Iniquitous object. From one small por Lion
only of the parapet of the recess could the weight have
been so lot down that it would alight on a shelving abut-
ment of the bridge, a short distance above the level of the
water. This one spot was that from which the bag was
lowered; and the care with which the revolting burden
was lot down enabled it to rest on this shelving abutment,
from which it would certainly have slid if allowed to fall
rapidly or with a jerk.
The bag contained a portion of the bones of a man about
5 feet 8 inches in height. The parts deficient were those
by which identification could be established with greatest
certainty, namely, the hands, feet, and head. In the bag
were five lower dorsal vertebrae, separated by the divi-
sion of the cartilages with a knife, and by cutting the
processes with a raw. Considerable force had been
employed, as a portion of the spinal cord had been
dragged out of the canal of the upper dorsal vertebra.
The pelvic bones, larger than those of the male usually
are, had been separated with laborious care. Attached
to the pubis on one side was found a small portion
of the corpus cavernosum, thus placing the sex beyond
dispute. The left elbow and right knee had been bent at
right angles when the body stiffened, and this was the
condition in which it was found ; the division of the
femora having been effected by sawing through their shafts
below the trochanters and also above the condyles. One
upper extremity had been removed by sawing through the
neck of the scapula. The sternum had been split by a
vertical section. On all tha bones remained fragments of
muscle, which had been evidently roughly hacked away.
The knife used was a blunt one, but the saw sharp.
We particularly mention these appearances, as they
serve to refute foolish rumour which was spresld on the"
first discovery of the remains, that they- had been depo-
sited by some medical students for a " hoax:" Such an
absurd suspicion could only have originated in the densest
ignorance. Students have no greater opportunities of
obtaining poseession of remains in the condition in which
these were found than any other members of society, and
we can only express our extreme disgust at the morbid
obtuseness of the slanderer who dared to impute such a
barbarous outrage by intelligent and educated men.
There was skin adherent to four parts of the remains—
on the back of each wrist, on the tubercle of the right
tibia, and over the left side of thesternum aboutits
In this latter situation there also remained a portion of
the origin of the pectoralis, perforated by a stab, which was
apparently inflicted during life, and penetrated between
the third and fourth ribs. Now, the clothes had also
been thrust into the carpet-bag, and in the left side of the
shirt-front were marks of seven or eight stabs made by a
thin clean blade, one of the holes precisely corresponding
with the above-mentions] incision. Had this small re-
maining fragment of flesh been removed, there would have
been lost the most presumptive evidence of murder. Had
the fragments not been by some means preserved, decom-
position would have rendered it impossible decide that this
stab was inflicted previous to death. The clothes are per-
forated by many stabs, and have evidently been roughly
cut and torn from the stiffened body.
The pares of the body deficient, including the viscera
and muscles, form a mass so difficult to appropriate that
the detection of the murderers may occur even whilst these
observations are passing through the press. That more
than one person was concerned seems probable. And there
were found entangled among the remains long, fine, brown
hairs, which lead to the suspicion that a woman, with her
hair lishevelled, was present when the body was hewn to
pieces.

We cannot outer into further details en this subject at
the present time for obvious reasons; but the points al-
ready indicated aro of such professional interest that we
need not apologize for commenting on them. It only re-
mains that we should direct attention to the minute case
and the great professional skill and intelligence with which
the romaius have been examined by the police surgeon, Mr.
13,. B. Paynter, of Brydges-street.

(LETTER FROM MR. RICHARD BUDD PAYNTER, SURGEON
TO THE F DIVISION OF THE .111ETRTPOLITAN POLICE
FORCE.)

(To th,e Editor of tne Lancet)
Sir,—As I find there is still an opinion held by a few
medical gentlemen, as well as by some of the public, that
the bones recently found at Waterloo-bridge are not those
of a murdered man, but the remains of a dissection, I
think it may be well to send you a short account of what I
have observed hitherto in the matter, especially as I am
the only medical practitioner that has yet reported on the
case. I therefore propose, on the present occasion, to give
a short anatomical desc:iption of the case, and will pos-
sibly, at a future period, give a more detailed account.
On being shown the bones at the police-station, I pro-
ceeded to fit them together, and soon ascertained that they •
all belonged to one person-e-an adult man of an average, or
perhaps above the general size. The head, the whole of
the viscera, all the cervicaland seven of the dorsal vertebras,
were wanting, also the left clavicle, portions of the ribs,
acromion process of the right scapula, both hands, both
patallee, lower third of the left fibula, and both feet and
tarsi. Of the bones present, five dorsal and two lumbar
-were in ono piece, the ribs being sawn from the former.
The upper and lower portions of this piece of the backbone
was separated from its adjoining bones by cutting the in-
tervertebral substance with a knife, and the articular and
transverse processes with a saw. The lower lumbers were
cue in half through their bodies and attached to the
pelvic. There were five portions of the thorax, three of
them belonging to the right side, and forming, when put
together, eleven ribs nearly complete; the two other por-
tions were from the left side, one of which consisted of
probably the second, third, and fourth ribs, with part of
the sternum. Between the third and fourth ribs, near the
sternum, was a cleanly-cut stab, having its long axis up-
wards and downwards, and exactly corresponding with the
direction and position of the cuts in the coat and under-
waistcoat. Around this wound, for a distance of two
inches, blood was infiltrated into the tissues both external
to the thorax as well as beneath the pleura. The next ribs
below, probably two or three, were missing, the other piece
of the left side above-mentioned being most likely parts of
the seventh, eighth, and ninth. Thus the ribs immediat. ly
beneath the parts where the greater number of stabs in the
clothes appear are missing. But the characters of the cut
above-mentioned are quite conclusive as to the wound
being inflicted during life. The thorax had not been
opened in the invariable (as I believe) manner of anatomists
—viv., by cutting the costal cartilages, but the sternum
was sawn down the middle vertically. The right clavicle
was left hanging to the upper rib, and ha I a square inch
of dark skin on it. The right scapula was detached, and
had lost its acromion by the saw, and was roughly disarti-
culated from the humerus. The right radius and ulna
were in one piece, but separated by rough disarticulation
from the humerus and baud. The left scapula was also
separate, but sawn from the humerus, to which the neck
remained attached. At the elbow-joint the heads of the
left radius and ulna, partly sawn and partly broken off
by great force, were also attached to the humerus. The
remaining portions of radius and ulna were together, and
pronated. On the back of each wrist was a large patch of
dark skin, with numerous long, black, or darkish hairs.
The pelvis was divided with a knife (I believe) at the
physis-pubis, and with a saw down the centre of the sacrum.
It was of large dimensions, the internal measurements being
at the brim rive inches lateral, and four inches and a quar-
ter antero-posterior. Attached to one of the rami was a
distinct portion of the corpus cavernosum. The heads of
both femora were articulated, but sawn from their shafts
and was firmly fixed, pointing almost at right angles
below the trochanters. The right stump had muscle around
it,
to the body of deceased. Tho capsular ligament of the left
hip joint was cut open, ana an endeavour had boon made

to wrench out the head of the femur, but it was held by
tholiganientum teres. Tho shafts of the femora wereagain cut just above the condyles, the right lower portion
still remaining attached to the tibia. The left was sepa-
rated and detached by rough cutting. The right tibia was
cut at the junction of its lower thin]. The right fibula
were similarly sawn. The lower portions of the right tibia
and fibula and the left tibia formed sc,pa.rate fragments,
and were di articulated from the missing tarsi. The right
knee was strongly fixed, and had a large piece of skin with
hair, as on the wrists, firmly allicrent to the head of the
tibia.

All the bones had portions of muscles, nerves, arteries,
(lthiuject°(l)9 3ce, alhering, cut about in a rough,
haggled" manner, and bad not been dissected. The
of the parts was reddish-brown externally, redder if out
into. No decomposition had taken place, exceptidg in
the left acetabulum, where there:were blue discolorations,
and a very strong smell of putrafaction. No portions of
skin were present but those named. From the condition
of the tendons, ILAN ies, cuticle, &c., I should not wonder
if the parts had been boiled.
It is evident that when cadaverous rigidity set in, the
right thigh and leg were strongly drawn upwards and out-
wards, the latter partly flexed on the former. The left
humerus must have been abducted from the side, and the
forearm half flexed and pronated at tt:o saute time.
Some dark hairs were adherent to the remains, and also
a few long ones of a lighter colour. Some saline gritty
particles were found on the muscles,
bably, be analysed.
I think I have said enough in this hurried note to show
that a foul murder has been committed. I have not Hine
&c. Those will, pro-
to add more, or speak of the clothes, and my chief object
in writing this at all is to endeavour to free my medical
brethrrn from the horrible imputation that they dispose of
their subjects, used for study, in such a manner as this.—
I am sir, your obedient servant,

CITY SHERIFF'S COURT.
(Before Mr. Prenderga4t, Q C )
IMPORTANT TO HOTEL AND TAV,UtN KEEms.—BATTY V,

SAWYER AND STRANGE.
The plaintiff in this action is an extensive oil and
pickle manufacturer in Finsbury-pavement, and the de-
fendants ars the proprietors of the newly-erected hotel
at the corner of Chancery-lane, Fleet-street, and the
action was brought to recuver the emu of 3/, 15s. 7d.
for goods sold and delivered.

Mr. Howard, a warehouseman to tho plaintiff, was
called, and proved that a person of the name of Harding
called and stated that he was making some sauce fur the
defendants, who had authorised him to get the materials
from where he I.lted ; and be ordered goods to the
amount claimed, and directed them to be sent to the
defendant's premises. They Were accordingly sent, and
Mrs. Sawyer signed the delivery-hook. No invoice was
delivered,
havingthe lust it On the road.
Mr. Buchanan,det,ndaut, asked whether
the boy
for
Harding had shown any authority to give the order, or
was present to prove it, and WAS answered in the
negative.

His
Honour thought the case was clear enough. 'Mrs.
Sawyer had rec ,ived the goods and signed the receipt.
Mr. Buchanan said that was so, but he would prove
that Harding was nut authorised to give the order. He
had offered to make some sauce, and to do so on the
premises if Messrs. Sawyer would permit, and this they
assented t 3, but on his going the neat day he
was incapable of beginning from having imbibed
too much ale, The day after he called and apologised,
and said that he• had ordered home goods to be sent,
which he would take with him and manufacture
the Eauce at his own place, and the materials were then
given up to him. The learned gentleman contended the
mere signing the de!ivery book did not make the defen-
dant liable, for it was very common thing for hotel keepers
to take iu goods for their customers, and if the defendants
were held to be liable in this ca-s there would be no end
to their liability for watches, jewellery, &c. The entry
in the book only showed that the goods were to be de-
livered at the place, but there was no invoice to show
who they were for.

Mr. Saw er was examined and proved the facts as
stated, and iwore that be bas noverouthorised Harding
to givettriftretiam... orderc•were gilierrin Writ-
ing, and be thought plaintiff ought not to have sent
goods without an order.

- Mr. Howard said that they knew Harding and would
not have trusted him.

Mr. Euchanan said that was the greater reason plain-
tiff should have satisfied himself that he was an autho-
rised agent.
His Honour thought that the goods having been
taken in and a recaipt
given was binding on the defen-
dant. It was not al ways necessary that the agency
should be proved, as the parties might adopt the acts of
the agent, which they had done in this case.
Judgment for the sum claimed.

MRS. CUNNINGHAM AND HER COOK.

At the New York District Court, on September
29, a suit was brought by Hannah Coulau, against
the notorious Mrs. Cunningham, who was so deeply
concerned in the Burdell tragedy affair. The de-
I fondant was cook to Mrs. Cunningham, and sued
for 35 dollars of wages.
Hannah's depo-itions set forth that in the latter
part of June, 1856, she went into Mrs. Cunning-
ham's service, in which she continued till January
31, 1857, the night Dr. Burden was murdered ;
that about the Ist of Auuustshe left, and after three
weeks returned to Mrs.'eunningham's ; that there
was no agreement between them as to the wages
she should receive, although she considered her
strvices worth 7 dols. per month ; that Mrs. Cun-
nigharu did not pay her anything, but only gave her
some muslin valued at 2 dols. 37 cents for her ser-
vices from the time she returned until she left in
January ; that Mrs. Cunningham made her a pre-
sent of the muslin, but she would not accept of it ;
that after Mrs. Cunningham had been discharged
from the Tombs she had a conversation with her in
Dr. Burdell's house in regard t the wages ; that
Mrs. C. told her, in the presence of Mrs. Wlt, to
wait until she got rid of the young one, and then
she would make it all right ; that she said she was
going to sell her property up town ; that Mrs.
Wilt was not- present at this last obiervr bon, but
Mrs. C.'s daughters were ' • that on. New Year's-
dry Mr. Eckel gave Hannah a dollar, which Mrs.
C. took from her to keep it for her, but never re-
tu.ned it ; she said she would keep it for her until
she should buy something for herself.
Upon Hannah's cross-examination it appeared
that she was acquainted with one Joseph Gilmar-
tin ; she was sure that she was not married to him,
and never told him to get any money from Mrs. C.
for her, but she told Mrs. C. to give Mr. Gil-
martin seven dollars for her ; that Miss Helen gave
her a bedtick and a towel with Dr. Burdell's name
marked upon it ; that Miss Helen was afraid of
her mother, and told Hannah to say so ; that she
knew Mrs. C. paid Gilmartin seven dollars ; that
when Mr. Eckel gave her the d he told her to
buy a handkerchief with it to keep her nose clean
this cold weather ; that Mrs. C. told her that when
ale got rid of the child she expected to go to Europe
or leave the city ; that at Mrs. Wilt's house My.
C. put her hand in her pocket and sail she wanted
a settlement wi thher ; this wasthe day befo. e thetrial
before the Surrogate ; that Mrs. C. said if sh?,
Hannah, would keep her mouth shut and not swear
she would give her any amou t of money, to which
she replied she did not want any money betide her
wages ; that deponent never went to Mary Donahue
to get her to swear about the wages ; that she did
not strike Mary Donahue in her life, since God
made her.

Mrs. Cunningham's depc*Won set forth that she
paid her girls $7 per month ; that when Hannah
left her the first time she p tid her $lB, which was
all that was due to her ; that subsequently she
loaned Hannah $2B, upon representations that
Gilmartin was going to set up au oyster-stand, and
that things were going to b 3 made comfortable
between them ; that it was distinctly understood
that• Hannah was to work out this $2B ; that she
never took the dollar from Hannah ; that on New
Year's-day Hannah had a dispute with Gilmartin,
and that Hannah was drunk ; that on the premises
of Gilmartin she found some dishes and a hair
pillow belonging to her, and a towel bienging to
Dr. Burden.

During the reading of the last deposition, Han-
. nail, who was in court, volunteered some remarks
upon it, and interposed sundry objections, &c.
The Judge said tbat if Hannah could not keep
quiet, she must go out of court.
Miss Helen Cunningham then took the stand and
was sworn. Her testimony did not materially differ
from that disclosed in the deposition of her mother.
In the course of her examination Hannah again
offered some remarks, and she was put out of court
by the officer in attendance. She returned again in
a few moments, but did not interrupt the proceed-

—Mrs. Wilt was also sworn, but her tc3t7mony was
unimportant,

Tho case was summed up, and tho judga reserved
his. decision.
