with being concerned with two other men, named George
Pybus and Charles Dunn, in threatening Alfred Gilland,
traveller, in the employ of Mr. Still, ginger-beer manu.
facturer, of Wells-street, Oxford-street. The complainant,
who was some years ago a witness against Dunn, was on the
evening of thel4th with his brother in his van in Saville-street,
Marylebone, when the three men above-named came up to
him, and Bacon, after remarking, " There's the Gillands,*
stopped the horse. Pybus then got into the van, and.
struck the complainant's brother, and Dunn drew a km!. e
and threatened to stab the complainant for " laggyag "
(transporting) him for five years. The complainant
jumped out of the van to get away from Dunn, when
Bacon put out his leg and tried to throw the complainant
down. Dunn, who is a "ticket-of-leave," having been
convicted of burglary, and Pybus, who has severe'
times been convicted, were brought before the

for neglecting to provide adequate ventilation in th,
pit. The defence was that the ventilation of the pit
was always good ; that there was no deficiency in the
care taken by the management to provide for the
safety of the men ; that an accident which had taken
place arose from extraordinary circumstances, namely,
a fall of a mass of coal on the night prior to the ex-
plosion, which impeded the ordinary ventilation.
