fwear to the perfon of the prifoner.
The Learned Judge told the Jury that they musk
acquit the prifoner of the burglary, inafmuch as there
was no breaking to enter the dwelling•finafe, the rob-
bers having taken an opportunity of forcing their
way when the door was opened for another perfon.
But if they believed the prifoner to be one of the
thieves, they would find him guilty of healing in the
dwelling houfe.

the dwelling houfe to the amount of 401.—which
equally fabjeds him to be hanged.

left knee fell in the belly of the deceafed. He imme-
diately cried out very much, and begged to be led
glum make water ; they led him to the door, but no
water would pals. He begged to be laid on his back
