POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

GUILDHALL.
An ORDER of AFFILIATION was made by Messrs. Alder.
men WAITIIMAN and Lucas yesterday upon. 'lobed Louden,
apprentice with Messrs. Tucker and Everitt, drysalters' Bread-
street-hill, under rather singular circumstances. Mr.Jobson,
the Vestry Clerk of St. Andrew's, Holborn, stated that the
mother of the child was dead ; and the only evidence Ite,hati to
offer in the place of her oath and identification of the father,
where her declarations to others; the conduct of the reputed pa•
rent, and corroborating circumstances, such as letters addres-
sed to her. It was., undoubtedly, a very unusual case th,tis,, a
partyshould be fixed with the maintenance of a bastard end
without the mother being sworn to the fact of his being the
father". but it was not an unprecedented one.; for, in his own
experience, an Attorney in Gray's Inn had appealed against an
order of filiation made upon hearsay evidence of other persons,
the mother being dead; but the Sessions confirmed the order.
—Mrs. Harriet Wicks, of Dean-street Fetter-lane, said, that
Elizabeth Scarlett was brought to bed of the child in ques-
tion.in her house, on the 4th of January. On the 6th ofJanu-
ary, the husband of witness called on young Mr. Lowden, a
sand
on the same evening Mr. Lowden called at her house, and w
Elizabeth Scarlet; witness said to him, " You have a son
come to town !" lie said, " Have I?" He afterwards gave
the young woman 11., and sent her sage, arrow root, &Co
called several times during her accouchcment, and on one occa-
sion he said, " I wonder what my father would say, if he knew
that his youngest son was the father of a child before his
eldest ?" The young woman died in three weeks after she gays
birth to the child.--Mr. 'Wicks, the husband, in some degree
confirmed her evidence. He stated, that when he called "
Mr. Lowden, he told him " that ho had a son come to win.
Lowden replied, " I know Elizabeth, but of the child 1100
nothing." He also said he would do the best for the chiltlf
but could not take it himself.—Mr. Lowden, a solicitor,. Ana
brother of the reputed father, contended there was not evidence
upon which the Magistrates could make an order of aflinglono
Messrs. Alderman IVAITHIAN and LUCAS expressed thew
selves satisfied with the evidence, and ordered a week lOW
paid towards the support of the infant.—Mr. Lowden, the sod
licitor, said he should appeal against the order.
