The Sun. — 1870-06-01 (London, England)

THE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVEMNG, JUNE 1, 1870.  the jacket sown up by a woman drinking at the bar, and, after going again to the public-house we were in first we returned to our lodgings. I was there when the prisoner was taken, about hall-past five. I did not take sufficient notice of the key to swear to it, but it was about the size of the one produced. Superintendent Jervis—l produce the key identified by the last witness. On Sunday last, the 29th of May, I took the lock produced from the front door of Marshall's house, which opened into the room where the bodies of Mrs. Marshall and her sister-in-law were found. I tried the key. It fitted the lock. There is white paint on the key similar to that on the lock. The lock appeared to have been painted with the key in it. Daniel Love, warder of Reading gaol, deposed that the prisoner was discharged from that prison on the Bth of January last. Ele gave him the cord jacket produced (which was found in Marshall's bed-room) and a pair of boots similar to those produced. Prisoner—Those are not the boots. _  Witness added that when the prisoner was discharged he said he knew a man who had got some money, and he would have it, and rather than have eighteen months again he would murder him. Witness told him not to do such a thing as that. Mary Ann Sparks, sister to Mrs. Marshall, who appeared in deep mourning, identified the coat, trousers, braces, necktie, shirt, collar, and knife found in possession of the prisoner, as having belonged to her brother-inlaw, Emanuel Marshall. She knew that he had a pistol like the one produced, but not so bright. She could not swear to the watch and chain, believing the chain was more solid. Mary Ann Marshall had a silver watch and gold chain. Thurra Spooner, sister to Marshall, said the watch and chain produced were very much like her sister's. She found £2O and a wedding-ring in her sister's box and drawers. .  The Siagistrate—Have you not a brother in America ? Witness—Yes.  The Magistrate—Does this man resemble him in any ? way Witness—No ; he is not at all like him ;my brother was taller, thinner, and much fairer. (While saying this, hoWever, there seemed to be an uneasy feeling about witness.) Mary Ann Sparks identified all the articles except the pistol. Thought the chain seemed more soiled than her sister's.  Sergeant Jervis produced a key sent by Harriet Willis. Witness went to Denham, took off the lock of Marshall's house, and compared the key with it. The key opened the lock, and the two corresponded in every particular. At the close of the evidence the Chairman of the Bench put the usual questions to the prisoner, who fumbled at a written scroll which had been under his arm all day, but said he had nothing to say. He was then committed to the next assizes in June on the charge of wilful murder. Before leaving the room prisoner asked to have the ss. 9d. returned to him which the police had found upon him, and except when one of the witnesses pointed at him he never flinched throughout the examination, although evidently impressed at times with the weight of evidence against him. He scanned most of the witnesses narrowly.  IMPERIAL PAULIA Ni
