1 WEST DERBY UNION.-ALLEGED NEGLECT
OF A RELIEVING OFFICER.

A special meeting of the Board of Guardians, for the
West Derby Union, was held yesterday, for the purpose
of investigating into certain charges against Mr. William
Tristram, one of the relieving officers of the union. The
investigation was conducted by Mr.' Austin, Assistant
Poor-law Commissioner. There was a moderately full
attendance of guardians.
The charges against Mr. Tristram were contained in the
following resolution :—" It having been stated to the
Board by Mr. Peers, a member thereof, and one of the
Overseers of the township of West Derby, that James
Parkes, labourer, recently and suddenly deceased, had ap-
plied to the Relieving officer of the West Derby District
in this union, on Tuesday, the 15th December instant, for
relief for himself and family, consisting of a wife and four
young children, the said James Parkes labouring at the
time under a severe asthma, so that he was wholly un-
able to work ; that the said application was made at the
workhouse during the sitting of the Guardians, and that
the said Relieving Officer dismissed the applicant without
taking him before the Board, without relieving him, and
without afterwards visiting him or his family, who, as it
has been ascertained, were at the time in a condition of
perfect destitution, as to food of any kind. That the said.
James Parkes with great difficulty reached his home, a dis-
tance of about a mile from the workhouse ; and that on
arriving he told his wife, as Mr. Peers is informed, that
his heart was broken, and he died the next day. It was
resolved, that this case be duly investigated by this Board,
and that all parties acquainted with any circumstances re-
lative thereto be requested to give evidence thereon. That

a copy of this resolution be forwarded to the Poor-law
Commissioners, with a respectful request that the Assist-
ant Poor-law Commissioner do attend to conduct such
inquiry, and that an early day,, not being a Board day,
be apointed for that purpose.-JOAN SHEPPARD, Chair-
man." . .

The proceedings commenced by a statement from Mr.
PEERS, the main facts of which will be found contained
in the following evidence:—
Mr. Peter Bradshaw, of Prescot-street; Low-hill, was
the first witness. His examination, like that of all the
other witnesses, was taken upon oath, and the questions,

in the first instance, were put to him by Mr. PEERS.
He said, I am a rate-book clerk and assistant-overseer of
the township of West Derby. On Wednesday morning,
when Mr. Peers entered the Public-office, I asked him
What the Board had done with .a Door man who WAR
