It appeared that ,thedoupg Lady, Miss Elisabeth

Hickson. Erasmus. Webster is an attorney at Mandl's-
ter. his brother is a Sheiiff's officer; and Wild keeps e
public honie at Hanging Ditch, Manchester. These
persons, in conjunction with Mary Ann Buxton, bad
formed a plan for carrying off Miss Hickson, and she
to become the rite of Borten.' Welts*, the
attnrney, was promised 4001: for " generaling the
thing." W'th this sum he promised to pay various
debts; and when asked if he would nor gettifissellinto

une, when the elopement took place, Miss Hickson
left the residence of her parent, under pretence of taking
a ride, and joined the nrittmers, rho had provided a

Manchester, where they were married next day. The
young Lady's friends purtued the parties immediately
after the elopement took place, and traced theta to
Wild's house, at Manchester; and Miss Hickson ‘was
taken iron-ilk:ton and his sister and conveyed tuStenson.
After these facts had been proved, evidence iris called
to prove the charge laid in the indictment. Foi the
detente it Was stated that the marriage at Manchester
tas legal, ihasmuch as the young Lady bad willingly
consented to become Mr. Buxton's wife. The-proceed.
ings had not been commenced by the wish 'of Miss
Hickson; but by some (Thar rich relations, rho hid
thought proper to separate her from the man from

she st mild never be separated except by death.
Mr. Justice BAYLBY summed up. and clearly showed',
in doing so, that,in his opinioi4ll the parties were guilty.
The Jury consulted,' after a trial of eight hours, for a
few minutes, and then pronounced a verdict of
against Thomas Buxton. Wm. Webster, and Erasmus,
Webster; and of Aot Guilty against William Wild and

The Learned Junos then sentenced the three prisoners

to die, I hope it will be enough-4 hope they will spare
