l sent for the chief constable, and he gave orders that the prisoner should be taken into custody. He was taken into custody by Detectives Holden and Livesey. We removed him by the back door, and the house was left in the charge of two police officers during the night. Next morning made further search with MT. Potts, and took down the bricks in the chimney piece. We found these portions of the skull (pro- ducing small pieces of bones). The pieces vary ill size. We also found a piece of paper burnt, which was down ill the draft along with the bones. There had been no fire in the grate for some time. Alter the prisoner had been taken into custody charged him at the police station with the wilful murder of Emily Holland, aged seven years, at Moss street, on March 29, 1876.
 Coroner-What reply did he make to
 Witness-He repGed: "I am inno- cent, and God knows am."
 The prisoners detailed confession is substantially to the following effect: That, on the day when the tragedy was enacted, he sent Emily Holland for half an ounce of tobacco. When she return ed he asked her to come in the house. He got hold of her and carried her up stairs, and in the front room committed the outrage upon her. He took @ razor and coolIy cut her throat. To prevent the blood from covering the floor he wrapped her clothes around her. Next he battered her brains out and cut up the body, putting the head and arms on khe fro which ha had raceDtlv kind1ed in that room, and wrapped the trunk and legs in newspapers, ooncealing the parcels till it would be convenient to remove them. After this he went down stairs and shaved some of his customers with the razor which had been used to cut the girls throat. The horrible work having been finished, he locked the door of his shop and went to the theater. Great sympathy is felt for the bereaved parents of Emily Holland. The mother is in desponding state. The father is little better now that the murderer has been found out.
