Mr. Slater, surgeon, said he got to the house
after Mr. Martin. Ile had heard the evidence ju
concurred in it ; but he thought there might have been two in-
cisions made in the child's throat.
Mr. Harrison, surgeon of the Southern Hospital, said he
was present when Mrs. Henrichson was brought to the hospi-
tal, and the female, her servant, and a boy,. her son. He de-
scribed the wounds. On the head of the boy there were nearly
thirty dis.inct wounds. Where the skull was tractured, the

scalp was torn almost to pieces. Twenty-two pieces of bone
were removed from the brain. The poker produced would
produce the wounds described. The child died the same even-
ing. He described the injuries sustained by Mrs, Henrichson.
She had seventeen wounds on the head. She was far advanced
in pregnancy. (Much sensation was caused in court by this

testimony.)
The prisoner again declined to ask any qaution, stating
ruptly, I have no questions to put.':

street, and was intimately acquainted with the deceased Mrs.
Ann Henrichson. Her husband's name is John Henry Hen-
rid-Isom and he is captain of a shin. I heard of what had hap-

pened on Wednesday, and went to'tbehospital, where 1 saw the
deceased Mrs. Henrichson, and her son, Henry George, aged
five, and John Alfred, then dead, aged three wears. I knew
that Mrs. H. wore a gold watch and chain. 'the watch and
chain produced are very like the same, but I know the chain
and seals much better than the watch. .

Mr. Morley, the beadle, being examined, said Re saw the
body of John Alfred Ilenrichson, on Wednesday last, in Leve-
son-street. His throat was cut. Ile nu-t Mrs. Corlett at the
Hospital. She identified the child with its throat cut.
Mary Knott, who used to assist in the house in Leveson-
street, spoke to the prisoner coming and taking the lodgings
on the Monday. She said the bat with crape on (produced)
was like that worn by the prisoner.
Anthony Carney being sworn, stated, as on his former exa-

mination, that he took the potatoes to airs. nennenson's on
Wednesday. His evidence was precisely the same as before
given. The prisoner, he added, opened the door, took the
basket in, emptied it, and returned it to him. Prisoner was
in agreat state of perspiration, and witness took him to be a

!)is mas'

Some gentleman of the jury put some questions. Witness
said the basket would hold three pecks of potatoes, and wit-
ness had to put it in on one side the door-way, as the door was
but half opened, and the prisoner was partly behind.
Prisoner asked witness what time be waited at the door to
enable you to say lie was the man IVitness.—Just so long as
you took the basket and returned it. I looked strongly at your
features.
By the Coroner and Jurymen.—When lie banded me the
basket I went away. Just as 1 got on the lower step I met
Mrs. Ilenrichson coining home. I asked her if the potatoes
were paid for, and she said they were. I might have stopped
a minute on the step. I left before Mrs. 11. got inside. The
door was not shut close to. The same opening of the door
admitted her. I did not hear the door closed. The prisoner's
hands were very red, as well as his face. I do not know whether
the lady or the prisoner closed the door. The prisoner never
spoke to me. .

The prisoner asked several questions, to which the same
answera were returned.

MELANCHOLY SUICIDE OF THE VICAR OF PRESCOT.
—lt is with deep regret that we have to announce the
suicide, on Thursday, of the Rev. Mr. Chapman, the
recently-appointed vicar of Prescot. The reverend gen-
I tieman, who was about ..thirty years of age, was staving
at the time of the dreadful occurrence with a sister, at
St. Alban's. He had only been appointed to the vicarage
of Prescot about three months ago. His health, we be-
Here, was indifferent, and the thought of the heavy
charge (from the extent of the parish) which he had un-
dertaken acting up#4, a conscientious and over sensitive
mind, depressed hif-§Pirits, and led to the commission of
the rash act. ThSsilicide was effected by cutting hie
throat. The app intment 'to Prescot rests, we believe,
with King's Coeee-CAl:abridge.
