LENT ASSIZES.

NORFOLK CIRCUIT— IN ETFORD, 51.utcn 25.

In the Ring on prosecution against Holum v. Higgins, which it
was referred to Mr. EDGEELL to adjudge the amount of damage
upon, that gentleman awarded that the bl. should be refunded, and
30/. additional paid.
James Brookes was placed at the bar, charged with having, on
the 6th day of last January, In company with another person, coin.
mitred an assault upon James Rayner, and robbed him of a sore-
reign, and a considerable sum in silver, and some half-pence. The
other person who was with the prisoner is in custody, but from ill-
ness could not be brought up to take his trial.
The learned JUDOZ asked Brookes if it was his wish to take his
trial now ?

The prisoner said it was, and Rayner, the prosecutor, was called,
and examined by Mr. Pay Mx.
This witness was so deaf, that it was with the greatest difficulty
he could be made to understand the questions put to him. He saw
the prisoner on the day in question, at the Crown at Wynch ; it was
about half-past six in the evening. The prisoner and his compa.
don went out first. I went ten minutes after. I saw both go down
the high road. About seven, as I passed in my cart, one came on
one side, and one on the other. The man not here was the wan who
first amended the cart ; he had a stick in his hand half& yard long,
and struck me two or three times. The prisoner struck me also. I
did not think m
tibenlife would be worth one farthing. They robbed
me of every hi ny, and every shilling 1 had. They took what.
ever they could nd; one sovereign, 71 shillings, and half-pence. I
never showed them one shilling ; they right real robbed for it. It
was betwixt light and dark ; there wu a cloud over the moon.
B the Coustr—l bad seen the prisoners before, at the Crown,
at Wynch, that same evening; Br twen is the name of the land-
lord. (The witness wu mistaken in the name of the sign, but there
is only one public house there, and it is kept by Brightwen.) I got
very much injured indeed, and did not thinker any thing but dying.
After they had done It, I said, " I know you, and I'll have you."
The Flames Is one as safe u I am here to speak.
The prisoneruked how the men were dressed P—The witness said
one had a blue coat, dark trousers, boots, and spurs on. The other
had such a dress u made him look very big. He had a fustian slop
on, and a dark jacket underneath; the slop came below his knees.
The witness mentioned a conversation that he overheard.

BaronVstto f you were as deaf as you are now, how could
you hear them ? The witness did not give a very satisfactory answer
to this question.
Another witness deposed to seeing the prosecutor and the pri.
Nonni at the public.house at Wynch. It was not the Crown but
the Maid's Head (thought to have been intended for Queen Eliza.
beth's.) He heard the prisoners asking about the prosecutor certain
questions as to his property. A red net worn by the prisoner was
produced, and part of the cost he wore, which Indicated rather a se.
vere struggle between the prisoner and those who apprehended him.
The coat had been torn to pines.
The prisoner, who was of pale visage, but of determined counts.
panes, with a mixture of sinister expression, put several questions
to the witnenes, but which did not help him much.
The prosecutor was recalled by the I.aned Judge, and asked if
he did not say before the Magistrate that It was the other man, and
not the prisoner, who beat him and made his head bleed?
With great difficulty an answer was procured. At last he said,
" No, I did not."
Mr. Boys Aldham....l was the magistrate's clerk on this occasion,
and heard the witnesses examined. The depositions were put into
his hand. They are correct, and were fully explained to him.
They were reed, and it appeased that he had ascribed the greater
degree of violence to the other prisoner.
J. Johnson, Governor of the Castle at Norwich, sworn--.—By the
Cont"—ls the other prisoner in your custody ?
Witness—He is.

The Junos.—What is biz state and condition ?—His thigh
pelvis, left arm, and all the ribs on the left side, are broken. His
had also is injured. A large tumour is forming in the hollow of
the back of his bead. He is as bad as he can be to be alive.

How come be in this condition ?—He attempted to and
from a height of more than 70 feet be tried to let himself by
blankets and other things. They broke, and he fell almost the
whole distance ; he had rebounded several times, and was insensible.
There seems to be no hope of his life. The prisoner at the bar was
all the while at the top of the wall, and we were obliged to ascend
by a circuitous route to fetch him down.
The prisoner was then called upon for his defence and said, " I
near robbed the man in my life."
After his Lordship had summed ap,
The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty.
MI. Baron Vauttwax-..-I shall not direct record of the sentence
nowt I shall consider of it, and in the mean time we shall bear
further of the fate of the other prisoner.
