It is not for ."; to say whether that charge is sufficiently proved beforel.:or beyond saying it is sufficiently proved to send you to a higve tribunal, there to take your trial. The facts which haiii been proved before me, uncontradicted as they now rem 00,0 certainly prove your conduct to have been that of a Noon,. guilty of great impropriety ; but whether you have cod witted the awful crime with which you are charged' to thereby caused the death of your husband is known only et Him who is above and to yourself, as far as aPPes..`"hee present. It will be for a jury of your country to s,?'Y "ow ther they believe you have been guilty or not. old for stand committed to the next assizes to take your trl- son. .I.ohl; the the wilfu lmurder of your husband, William Henry You may stand down.
