threw it into the sea. - Afterwards she met a man
by appointment, about two the same morning, and
during the timo rihe was fait with hith, t'i r). cook
removed all traces of what had happened, and
a,bseondA and was not heard of afterwards. There
was a great noise in the morning about the siok
bong missing, and sine (the prisoner) wanted to
leave also, but her master would not allow her to
do so, and made her s'ay a month longer. The
prisoner state I that she had been in great agony of
mind ever since, for the eyes of that child were
always looking at her, and exclaimed, Oh God !
lam a murderer, and am undone for ever."
Inspector Griffin said, that when he had finished
sealing the statement, he asked the prisoner if it
was true, and if she had made that statement To
which she replied, " I did ; it is all true."
Mr. Selfe—You found her in a house for fallen
females who wish to reform ?

Inspector Griffin—l did, sir.
Mr. Selfe—Was the prisoner calm and collected
when she said th© statement was quite true, and
that she Made it.

Inspector Gliffin—Yes, sir. She was quite col-
lected.

Mr. William John Russell said he WAS missionary
agent to the Society for the Rescue of Young
Women and Children. The st,ttment read by the
inspector was made by the prisoner to him. The
prisoner came from the Dover Probationary Asy-
lum to the a;yluna in Mount-street, three weeks
ago.

-Mr. Selfe—lt is right for me to state that you
came to me and asked my advice on the subject of
this young woman's confession.

Mr. Russell—Yes, sir, and you kindly gave me
advice how to act.

Mr. Selfe asked the inspector of police if the pri-
soner had given him any farther particulars, or
divulged the name of the gentleman in whose
family she had lived at Brighton ?
Inspector Griffin—No, sir ; I asked her the
name of the gentleman in whose service she was,
and the name of the cook who Oie alleged assisted
in the murder, and she would not tell me, and
said "I shill not trouble you long in this world,
and I will say no more about it at all." She ex-
claimed several times that she would commit
suicide.

Mr. Selfe asked Mr. Russell if there was reason
to believe that the prisoner was labouring under a
delusion ?

Mr. Russell—l should say not. She was very
ill and feverish when she made the statement to
me, but quite collected.
Inspector Griffin said the prisoner complained
of Mr. Russell giving information to the police.
Mr. Selfe—He was bound to do it. Let her be
well looked after. I will remand her for a weeic,
and you will in the meantime communic.ttra with
the Brighton police.
