an hour or three quarters an hour after that ;
her hufband and fon, and fun in law, were at the
houfe, guarding it ; the remained in the out-build-
ing until the firing was over ; when the firing

It the houfe belonged to him. Previouslo the
death of Mr. Spencer, the prifoner was his Rew-

fix in the evening, he was then getting vi6tuals and
drink, and giving it to the rebels ; there were
no other perfons there ; there were from thirty to
thirty•five rebels there at the time; the did not
hear the prifoner fay much ; the did not hear him
exprefs any concern for the murders, but he might
have been concerned, though he did not exprefs it;
the murders were perpetrated on Saturday; her
hutband and Eons were buried about nine o'clock
on Sunday morning ; the law the prifoner on the
Sunday morning in the houfe that ufed to be called

the was (peaking to him, a man named iNeal, a
filter's fon, came in, the prifoner faid, " loch a
man came in, and laid, I mutt give him five gui-
neas." The other ;liked him, " did you give him
five guineas ?" I did." "Then I will go out
and have him hanged (laid Neal), for he never
gave an account of it to our men." Sir did not
hear the prifoner fay any thing to that threat, the
did not fee him exprefs any grief, and as the faid

which the prifoner replied, " Hold your tongue,
or you will be killed, and I cannot Pave you."—

called upon the witnefs for provilions, and ill; :. •

it would have been dangerous for ar.y pert;,; ~
have expreffed concern at what had taken place
prifoner gave her a car to take her hufband att
Eons to be buried: one man al:lifted her to bury
them; the bodies`were not to have beer, butted,
the fentence they received was to be nailed nn a
wall or thrown into a ditch. She had known the
prifoner eighteen or twenty years ; he had been
longer than that with Mr. Spencer ; he had been
treated with great kindnefs by Mr. Spencer, 'a
had made a man of him ; he bad been treated %IA
kindnefs by Mrs. Spencer until the hour of her
death ; Mr. Spencer had recommended him to
feveral other perfons ; he never fled, butcontinned
to be employed by the friends of Mr. Spencer.
John Moore and his brother neatly corroborated
what had been hated by their mother. They ac.
knowledged that they had, as a proteaion, afkca
to have their names entered in the lift of Rebels;
though the affair happened fo long ago, yet they
had given examination only a few days before the
prefent Aflizes againft the prifoner.
On behalf of the prifoner, the Rev. Mr. Pow.
toy, fon in law to Mr. Spencer, was produced.—
He gave the prifoner a molt excellent cliarafler.
He thud, that the prifoner had laved all the pa-
pers and documents belonging to Mr. Spencer.--
That lince the murder he had fettled accounts
with him relative to the Duke of Leinfter, to the
amount of fic,oool. which accounts had been pok-
ed by the palter ; that without the attention of
' the prifoner, and his having Paved 114: pape:.., it
would have been irnpoilible to 11.1‘e don,: i;); that
he bad a very good opinion of him (nice the 3:.
bellion ; that he had known him in Mr. mipne::.'s
family for many years : that nothing L Imi I. • .ri
fworn againft him had altered his good .• pinini,—
and, upon a quellion put by the Couttli !"r ti-..e
Crown, he raid, he did nut believe he was CC3.
cerned in the Murder of Mr. Spencer.
The Duke of • Leiniter, and levetal Gen:l:Jim,
attended to tehlify to the charaEter of the prifoner,
but it was thought unneceffary to produce them.
The Jury, without hefitation, acquitted the pet.
