place, by the statute of thesth and 6th of Edwa4
the Fifth, was equally prnbibited from such a
transaction occurring in, and it was further en.
acted, that persons•so.adending against that Ma.
tile (particularly the Churchwarden, whose duty
it was to keep the peace daring Divine Service),
were liable to be suspended.
Thu Learned •Juuae was clearly of opinion,
that the Churchwarden had not discharged his
duty in so strict and correct a manner as he ought
to have done—that his conduct was•very improper
on the occasion ; but under all the circumstances
and considerations of the case, he •should dismiss
the Defendant, and condemn Minis VI. costs.

lours of the witness's house, and the witness be-
ing one day employed. in the kitchen underneath,
was alarmed by severe/ heavy knocks upon the
floor above, the last of which brought down part
of the ceiling, and the witness thought she heard
it succeeded by a sort of a smothered groan. She
immediately ran lip to the prisoner's apartments
and inquired • what she lout beets doing, who an-
swered he had been doing nothing. The wittiest,•
however, on looking at the child, was extremely
shocked to perceive t countenance distorted, and
its eyes swelled very much, and again inquired of
the prisoner what she had been doing; the pri.•
soner'acknewledged she had been lifting the unfur
tunate infant up 'by its neck,- and proceeded to
show the witness in what•manner, till the child'
again became black in the face., The witnesscte,
monstrated with the, prisoner on her conduct,
which she told her wouldsooner or later terminate
fatally to herself and the child toe ; the child was
frequently sent to school in the morning without
having any thing given it to eat, and on those
and other occasions the witness used to feed it.

the window, perceived the Prisoner plunging the
child into a large stone Cistern, and every time she
took the chikl out, its bait rubbed against the tide
of the cistern, by which the flesh was lacerated.—
Upon the witness milling to her, the Prisoner de.
sisted. The witness. soon after went up to the
Prisoner's•apartmeet, to see how tl►e child was,
and discovered it in a mustklreadful'contlition. She.
perceived -several marks of blood on the floor of
