GEORGE TERRY." "Mr. George Terry, 26, Old Change." Sergeant Moss said I apprehended the prisoner at Eton, at a beer shop at the back of his mother's house. I said is your name william Smith, ho said yes, I asked him when he was last in London, to which he replied about the 10th of January last with his mother. I then showed him the letter given above, and said is that your handwriting, and he replied, "yes, it is, I now know what you mean ; I wrote a note for a man and took it to her for him." Prisoner's mother then came into the room and asked what it all meant, I said I had been asking him if he had been to London during the last week, and she slid she thought not. I asked what time he returned home last Wednesday, and she said she did not know, as she was in bed. She could not, in any of the questions I put to her, recollect what time she saw him last Wednesday. She said her son had been a great trial to her, that he would not work, and that is the reason ho has only ono shirt. I thought 1 would make him work and get another. Prisoner—l object to his evidence. Lord Mayor (to Moss)—Was the prisoner present when it occurred s Prisoner—l was not. Moss—He was, my lord. Mr. Woutner—Did you search the house ? Witness—Yes, and I found a suit of clothes spotted with blood.  Lord Mayor--Which you believe to be blood. Witness—l have no doubt, my lord. They were recent spots. I also found a mourning ring which he said belonged to his brother. I asked for his shirts, and his mother said he had but one. I asked her how he got it washed, and she said she (lid it while ho was in bed. His mother is one of the laundresses of Eton College. I told him I was a constable and should take him intocustody.for murdering. Sarah Millson, on Wednesday last, at 2, Cannon-sheet, City. Prisoner replied " that's a very serious charge, indeed. lam as innocent as a baby. I've not been in London since the Ist of February, when I called on a Mr. Fuggle, Aldermanbury about some money that is due to us. It was £lO my brother lent Mr. Fuggle. I first went with the letter alluded to, in the latter part of last year. I called about 3in the afternoon. She was washing 'up the things. I believe it was either Thursday or Friday the first time I went. She told me to come on Saturday, and I called on that day. I said did you write the receipt on the letter "W. Denton," and she said " Yes, it's ao good denying that, as you can prove my handwriting." I asked him why he signed W. Denton, and ho said " I have some times used the name, and I have called Mrs. Millson three times, She has paid me three sovereigns, and I wrote a receipt each time. I knew it was all wrong about the money, and I knew Terry was not entitled to it, and that is the reason I did not put my right name to the receipt. I told him it was most important for him to show that he was not in town at 10 o'clock on the night of the 11th of April. He said ho was with Mr. Harris, a hatter oteli;, in Eton, until after 7 o'clock that night, and then wen for a walk, and met a man whose name he did not mention Prisoner—Whose name I did mention. Moss continued—l am not sure about that. Tonwnlasight have done so while in London. prisoner said he innocent. Mr. Scarth—Did you make any inquiry about the prisoner at Eton ? Moss—Yes, of the police. The pri over was seen returning home about 12 or 1 o'clock on WQ.,llO$ night. d cl• •ht
