room. There were ft few spots of Wood and .{jjains oar the head of the bunk in which decti'Sfd hurl flept, {) s rved a few s-pota of blood fiom the room rut lo where the hcuiy was. Ii was alou' 30 yards from ."Mary Sutton's room to the place where Packer slept. Always knew the Maori by (became of Hff only. Hadbea'd his Maori name, buf'hb.* forgotten it. He had worked for his father off and on for years. Knew that de ceased had accused the Maori of robbing him, and the Maoii had told witness that he bail offered to give Packer £1 to a;<y no more about it, Harry aaid Packer v ould not take it, bur, wanted £1 10s. J'he Maori did' not seem to have any strong feeling neftiuas deceased. Witness knew that Paclur ha^ reported ihe matter to the police. Understood that de ceased had four £5 notes in his possession and several sovereigns. Believed the Maori knew of two. Harry bad no business at the farm that morning so early. He was not; ex pected that day till S o'clock. Saw a newly made grave in a little lane at the back of bis father's house. It was about ten o'clock ■when he first saw,it. There was a f-pide belonging to his father found near it. A bill hook also, belonging to his father was found in the hydrangea busb, close to where the body was found. The bill-hook used to be kept in the shed, but the spade might have been in the garden. That produced is the foill-hook which was found. Ie is now s'.ained with blood, and has some hair attached to it. The hair corresponds in colour to that of deceased. Edwin Parker had only been in the colony about four months and was about to leave Kpsom to go toWangarui. He had packed up bis luggage and was going to leave on the day he was ruuidered. Hart known the Maori to be accused of theft before. The Maori had not been since.

To a Juror : Mary Suttoa did not say she saw the Maori and Packer come out to gether. The next witness was Dr. Chas. Field Goldsboro' who gave evidence of having per formed, a post mortem examination of the deceased, and described the wounds which had caused his death.

The examination of this witness took up quite halif-au-bour, and the injuries were de tailed .in scientific language which would possess little interest for our readers. The evidence reduced to the level of ordin ary intelligence showed that Edwin Packer died from receiving five or six fearful wounds on the left side of the head and neck whick ihad split his skull, penetrated to his brain, and injured the spinal n.arrow.

Chas. Higgs, a boy <i eleven years old, was next sworn. He depostd that his father was a butcher, living at Onehunga. He knew a Maori by the name of Htnry David, who worked for Mr Oleghorn, up to the 27th of last month. He used to lodge at his father's, and slept in the same room and bed with witness He remembered the night of the 26bh ultimo. He went with the Maori to Mr B. D. Davies' entertainment. Returned home between ten and eleven o'clock. His father and mother were in bed. The Maori went to get a. drink of tea, and then came to bed. He did not get into" bed, but lay outside the blankets. He nearly always did that. He took off his boots, but whether he took off his clothes witness did not know, nor what time Harry went away. Witness woke about half past Eix o'clock and he was gone then. Had not seen him since. All the Maoii'si things were left at his father's house. Tbf ; purte fyroouced) belrn^ed to the Maoii.

By the Fort-man : The Maoii had not bten drinking on the Dif;ht he was with him. He was in his tuual health and spirits. Be knew the purse belonged to the Maori: George Paton gave it to him.

By a Juror : The Maori left Mr. Green's and said. ' Taihoa until I see that man."

James Mahoney, lab< nrer? deposed that he found the purse productd in a water-trough, about 150 yards from the giave. The grave was newly made, and a spade was found near it.

Constables Jackson and Greene gave evi dence as to the findirg of the body, the bill hook, and the clothes in the grave near the furze.'

Samuel Scarborough, a little boy 8 years old, deposed he was the Bon of a ploughman residing at Remuera. On Thursday morning on the Kemuera road, near the butcher's shoi, lie saw a Maori running. He came up to him and asked which was the Maori place. Wii ness ajked him if he meant Hauraki,' and he said yes. Witness showed him the road, but the Maori did not go tha1 way, tut went by the Hobson-road. As he walked away he noticed that ha nad fresh blood on the backs of his trousers.

David Kenealy a milkman, was the next ■witness. He resided ce»r Orakei Bay. On Thursday morning the 27th ult., he saw a Maori on the Orakei-road at about a quarter past six, abonb a quarter of a mile on this side of Lis own place. The Maori stopped him on the road and wanted to know where a maori named Marsh was working. Witness replit dhe did not know him, but there were some natives working for MrKdtb. The Maori gave him to understand that the natives he wanteo were working at corn, so be pointed out Keith's land. He turned from behind the cart and went towards Keith's. He was di essed in a black sack coat, a soft black hat, which he pulled over his eyes when speaking to witness, and either moleskin or canvas trou sers of a whitish colour, but all wet.' It was a fine morning and had not been raining. His boofs, too, were all wet. There was a creek at which he might have washed Ms trousers not far off. The next witness was the Maori Brassey. When the native came in lie looked very sullen. Mr. Brown was sworn as interpreter. The examination was as folkrws : I am an aboriginal native of .New Zealand, HviDg at Orakei. My original name was Maiki or Marsh, my present name is Paraike or Bras sey, I knew Jtfenry Wynyard. 1 saw him on the morning of Thursday the 27th inst. at Orakei, on the sea-side of his hoi; se. I cannot say what time. It may have been six or seven. I had no watch. Wejall spoke to him. I mean myself and the women be longing to the place. My female companions firat greeted him. W« called to him to come and have some food. 'I said, " Come and have some food." He replied, "I am satis fied, lam not hungry." That was all that took place We then sat down. Henry was shut out from view by the docks. Thai is all that took place between us. Wynyard did not enter my house. I have not teen him since, and do no kt,ovv where he is. If I did know I would conduct a man there to pay him out for ihe tiouole I've goc into. His coat was a black one and his hat a soft black felt. He had light, trousers. . I could not say positively that they were wet. I was too far off. They appeared to adhere to his legs. I.worked for Mr Paton with Harry ; that is how I came to know him. Barry was excited when he spoke to them ; my femaie companions were flightened. I cannot say how he went off, as he was out of view wnen I sat down.. By a juror: He did not work for Mr Keith on the day of the murder, because he bad other business to attend to. The jury after a deliberation of ten minutes, returned a verdicc of " Wilful Mjrder" againso the native Henry Wynyard.J^^JS^S
