over it. Several men came down, and one of them'
Paid, that they would be content if witnefs would re I
fore half the feizore, which be refuted to do. He
was loon after informed by Jofeph George, brother
to the prifoner, that the fmugglers were about to at-
tack them. In the courfe of the everting the prifo-
ner atked the witnefs to reftore him his boat which
had been taken from him tome time before, but he
informed him it was out of his power. At one o'clock
an attack commenced, which was continued for up
wards of an hour, dining which time feveral of the
cuttermen were wounded with mulket !hot. The
fire was returned, but the fmugglers fired from fhel-
tered places, and there were upwards of twenty bar-
rels of donee thrown at them. Jofeph George re-
mained with the cuttermen the whole of the time,
and his wife, after the aition was over, brought a
fencible pike which had been made life of by the
Tmugglers. Witnefs could not identify the prifoner
as being one of about fifty who bad made the attack.

ployed by him the morning after the affray to con-
vey the goods on board the cutter ? to which witnefs

lodged in the head, two in, the knee, and in feveral
other part► of the body of witnefs ; he had ever fince

been taken- from him. Witnefs was pofitive that
three or nt,,re muskets were fired•togetherr in differ-
ent places :—he did not fee tbe. prifoner :intone
the mob.
