O'Clock in the residence of the deceased the n E.
corner of Pratt and Paca streets. Drs. Bear and
Donivan were in attendance, and having examined
the appearance of the body, and it being in evil
dence that she had been Incorporate, and was un-
der the influence of liquor a short time before
her death, their opinion was that she died from in
temperance. The jury rendered a verdict in accor-
dance with the opinions of the physicians The
body was placed in vault in St. Peters burying
ground. About two hours after the rendition of
the verdict, Thomas Cafferty, the husband of the
deceased was, upon the suggestion of the brother
OF Mrs Catferty, arrested by officers Mcdonald and
Collegiate and taken before Justice Logan, charged
with poisoning his wife. The justice having pa
tently heard the statements on both sides and ex-
ahmed numerous witnesses, could discover no
grounds for the further prosecution of the CASE
lie therefore dismissed the prisoner The brother
OF Mrs Cafterty was not yet satisfied, and it was
agreed between himself and his brother-in-law that
post mortem examination should be had upon the
body OF the deceased this morning, at the grave
yard and for this purpose the assistance of Doctors
dunbar and Smith was secured. The former being
selected by the husband-the latter by the brother

oence, NO. l23 Cross street. 1t appears from the

get, as he alleged, some medicine On Monday he
was taken very sick, and on Tuesday night died.
During his illness, he confessed to some neiphbors
that he had poisoned himself, and that he procured
the poison at store on Light street. He showed
them paper which had contained a powder, and
was labeled "Rat Poison" Doctors Addison and
Benson called in on Tuesday evening. but
they could not relieve him. He leaves a wife and
hve small children. The jury rendered verdict of
