ed for nuisance, the jury returned verdict Of
guilty.
William Henry Gault, indicted for all as
sault and battery on Mrs. Eleanor Holden, of
Oakham, or the 22d day of August last, was
acquitted. Charles Brimblecomb, Esq, for
defence
- Howard, of Winchendon, agent of
alactory there, was indicted for an assault with
intent to ravsh Mary Ann Burley, grl aged
about l6 years. The only evidence for the
government was the girl herself. There was
no rebutting testimony except that of six wit
nesses from Winchendon, who testified that
the girls reputation for truth and veracity was
bad. To meet this evidence, the government
called from the Court room, without consulta-
ton, Messrs Ware and Caldwell, of Fitch
burg, and J. S. Watson, deputy sheriff of
Winchendon. The two former gentlemen tes-
tilted that Mary Ann Burleys reputation for
truth and yeracity was good. The Winchen-
don deputy sheriff testified that the reputation
for truth and veracity, of Mr.. Bacon, one Of
the witnesses for the defence, was very bad,
and that that of Mrs Crawford, another wit
ness, was bad also. The case was not given
to the jury when the Court adjourned.
