SHOCKING TRAGEDY.

A Deatli-Bed Marriage,

Ihc Bride Dies Under Suspicious

Circumstances,

Discovery that she was Poisoned

with Arsenic,

Considerable scmation has boen caused in town by the ducovery of a shocking tragedy, surrounded by circumstances of a most mysterious nature. It is an exceedingly difficult matter to ascertain the complete facts of the case, while on the other hand thore is a certain portion of the information which has como to our knowltdge which it would be injudicious to make public before the. official enquiry i« held, it would appear that on Monday last the police wens informed of the somewhat sudden death of a young girl named Surah Emily Johnston at a house in Grey-street. 'Enquiries were mado, and tho medical men who attended her not being satisfied concerning the causa of death, a^o^mortenjpxaminatiou of the body was held. Quantities of arsenic were found in the stomach, leaving no room for doubt that she had

Met her Death fi'om.Poisoning, Further inquiries revealed the fact that de ceased is the same girl who was committed for trial at Cambridge several weeks ago on a charge of concealment of birth. Her maiden name was Saruii Emily Johnaton.and she is the daughter of re*pec'.ablc people at Cam. bridge, her father being a g»rdcncr, It is saidthatmorethanaytaragoshewaskeepiug company with a young nun named Thomas Cleaver, then employed in Waikato as a tailor. People believed the couple to be engaged, and it was understood that a marriage was to have taken place. An estrangement, however, seemed to have happened, but no reason was assignod for it at the time. Cleaver lef; Waikato for Auckland, and, rather more than a week later, suspicions were aroused concerning the condition of the giil, who was then employed as a domestic servant in the Masonic Hotel, Cambridge. She was several times Accused of being Mnciente, butinvariably denied the charge. Early on the morning of Tuesday, August 25th, the police at Cambridge received iuformaiiou to the effect that a girl uamed Sarah Johnston, a servant afthe Masonic Hotel, Cambridge, had been conlined during the night and had made away with her child. Constable Brennan at once proceeded to the hotel, where the unfortunate girl was lying, and made enquiries into the matter. The girl, on being questioned as to what she haddone with the child, denied ever having one; but Dr Cushney, who was in attendance, | gave the constable to understand that it was a case of concealment of birth, and that the child had been made away with. A search for the body was instituted, and after some few minutes the bsdy of a male child was discovered buried behind the pigstye, in a hole about eighteen inches deep, and was at once removed to await the inquest, tor some time previously the girl had been ampecUd of being pregna»t, bat 01 being quistioiod by her employers and friends always denied the fact. Having worked up te the night preceding her confinament, no occurrence of .the kiud was expected, and the circumstance when made known created general surprise.

The Inquest.

An inquest was held ou the body of the child the samo evening, before Mr W. N. Seoiancke, coroner, MrK.W, Djorwatched the proceedings on behalf of tin girl John ston. The evidence of Lizzie Crawford, a servant at the hotel, went to show that the mother Of the child slept in the samo room with two other girls on tbc night she was confined, nud that she rosa and weut down- Stairs about 6 o'clock ia the morn ing. Witnesi followed her dovvmtairs about t,«n minutes after, and asked her what was the matter, when she replied that there was nothing wrong. Accused had nothing in her hand when leaving the room that she noticed, nor aid witneis hear apj; noise of a suspicious character pre viously. Accused had been keeping com pany with a man named Tom Clearer, a tailor. When she left the room in the morning to go into the garden she had nothing on but an ulster, her I«et and head being bare, and

She Was Suffering from the jMeasles,

F.oto Winter corroborated the'evidence of tlio previous witness.—Constable Brennan deposed to finding the body. Ho went to accused in her bedroom, and told her he had found the child, when sho replied, "I know now it ■was wrong to make away with it, bnfc did not think so at the time." Accused had hitherto borne a To;y good character. — The evidence of Doctor Cushney went to show he had made a post mortem examination ot the body and submitted one of tbc lungs to the usual tost. It was doubtful whether the child was living at the time of its birtb. It might bare breathed once or twice, but owing to bodily imperfections it could not possibly have lived for any length of time, —The jury, after some consideration, brought in a verdict of " Died from natural causes." Committed for Trial. , It will be remembered that as soon as the girl bad recovered from the sfi'ecti of her confinement, she was arrested, and brought before the magistrate on a charge of con cealmcnt of birth. Evidence similar to tb.it given at the inquest was adduced, and the unfortunate girl committed for trial. Ap plication for bail was made and the request acceded to, and the eirl was then released on the customary sureties, It would appear that Mrs Cleaver, who re tides in Grey-street, disapproved of the action of her son-, in leaving the girl, and strongly recommended him to , marry her. He refnsed for some time, bat at length yielded to the solicitations of his mother, and

Consented to the Marriage Taking Place.

A correspondence between the parties followed, and Miss Johnston wrote ex pressing her willingness to be united to Cleaver, and promised to come down with out delay. She arrived by the afternoon train last Monday, bringing her. luggage with her, and a meeting with the Cleavers took place. The relations between the couple appeared to be of a most amicable nature, and that evening they visited the Waxworks with several friends. It was discovered thai, according to the provisions! of the Marriage Act, Miss John a'on mnst be a resident in Auckland for at least three days before the wedding conld take place. Arrangements were therefore made that she should stop at the house of Mrs Butler, a friend and neighbour of the Cleavers, in Grey-street, until the intorval bod elapsed.—Mrs Butler is an invalid, and on the first night Miss Johnston occupied tho same bed with her. Mysterious Illness. During the . night, Mrs Butler was awakened out of her sleep by' »c sudden illness of ber lodger, who got eat of bed and commenced to vomit. She desired to go outside, bat Mrs Butler declined to allow her, pointing out that this was un necessary, as, being an invalid herself, she had every convenience in her apartments. Aliss Johnston continned ill during the Whole night, and next morning was even worse. The symptom* were vomiting and great bodily prostration. Mrs Cleaver, finding the condition in which the unfortunate girl was, had her re moved to her own house, where she "was very tenderly nursed by the lady in question. fo improvement boiiig noticeable, Dr. Kichardson was called in and prescribed for her, The cose, how ever, surprised and puzzled him, and Dra, Purohas and Walker having been sent for, ho had a consultation with them. Various remedies were applird without effect, and the girl sank until Monday last, when she died. Manned on Her Death-Bed. When it became apparent that theio was no hope of the girl's recovery, Mrs Cleaver was more anxious than ever that the only possible reparation should be made to. the injured girl, and that the marriage should take place. A marriage license was obtained from the Registrar of Births, Marriages, and Deaths, the name of the Rev. Mr Tebbs, incumbent of St. Matthew's Church, being, iuserted in the document as the "clergyman i authorised to perform the ceremony. The rules of the Episcopalian Church, however, precluded Mr Tebbs from conducting tbo marriage, A Special License being nocessary in cases of marriages in private houses. As the death of Miss Johnston was believed to be imminent, he advised her friends to procure the services

of the Key. A. Reid.the Wesloyan minister, in churge of the Pitt-street church. Mrs Butler proceeded to that gentleman's resi dence, but finding him out, requested'the Rev. Mr Hodgson, IVo Methodut clergy man, to perform the ceromonr. Mr Hodg. £ son

I Proceeded at Once '• to Mrs Cleaver's dwelling, arriving there at ten minutes to fovgr iv the afternoon. He found that liKS*^- Mr Tebbs had just concluded thqjrdminis, tration of the Sacrament of the Lord's ' Supper to the uufortunate girl. Tho marriage took place in the bed-room, Miss Johnston being partially raised on pillows. Besides the bridegroom ther» wore also present Mrs Butler, Kobert Cleaver, and . one or two other persons. There was no manifesta ion of unusual fecliag, and i though the girl's relatives a'l appeared to be under the impression that she had hut au Hour or so to Live it struck Mr Hodgson that she displayed a large amount of energy for a person in extremis. She appeared to be a person of great muicular development, and her re plies to the respousos were given, in clear, : unwavering tones. The Bridegroom, etood by her side, and as he clasped the hand of tho woman who was soon to be a '•bride to the worm," displayed no traces of uneasiness or grief. The ceremony was coucliuled at four o'clock, and when the signing of the nuines iv the marriage register took place, Mr Hodgson, for the first time, noticed signs of exhaustion in the bride. Sho wrote her name with extreme difficulty, indeed the cramped charactoraj&'tke register, which was shown to our reporter, bear ample testimony to this. She subscribed herself "Sarah Emily Johnston, servant, spinster, aged eighteen, birth - place, Hobart, Tasmania." Cleaver signed his nanib as "Thomas Cleaver, tailor, bachelor, ased 25, birth-place, Aucklivud." And so ended this novel tying of the nuptial knot. Dr Walker, of Upper Grey-fctreet, who, with Dr. Richardsaii, ntiended the deceased, and subsequently as*istad that gentleman at the post nwrtem examination, was inter viewed \»y a reporter of the Stab this morn ing. Dr. Walker stated that on Friday hut he was called, by Dr. Richardson, to see a joung woman Darned Sarah Johnston, reiiJing in Grey-streat. He found her to be in a complete state of collapse. The extremities were cold, the pul»c weak, and all tlio indications favoured the supposition that the woman was sutTcr ing from

Inflammation of the Stomach. Drs. Kichardson and Walker diagnosed the case similarly, gastritis being the ail-' ment under which it was supposed the deceased was suffering. Neither gentle men could, however, supply a cause for tbe indisposition. Dr. Walker did not again see the young wsmau alive. On Monday last he was iuformed by the other medical man that she was dead, and they arranged to make a private post mortem examination of the body on the following day. " The Autopsy was matte on last Tuesday. The stomach and small bowels were found to be in a highly congested condition. One portion of the email bowel bad been ulcerated, earning perforation, and thraugh this hale a quaatity of yellow coloured serous fluid had found its way into the abdominal cavity. The gullet wai also found to be in a stato of congestion.. After concluding the post mortem, the doctors took a .vay with them portions of the stomach, bowels, and a quantity of the serous liquid referred to above. Dr. Walker, astisied by Mr Mor gan, chemist, of the "Golden Mortar," analysed the fluid, no fewer thsn six separate tetta being applied, the result he iiij; that the presence of Arsenic ia considerable quumitics was detected, The first test applied was what is known as lieinsche's, which produced a number of small crystals. These, on being placed under the microscope, wero fouid to be octahedral in shape, and were imme diately pronounced to be particloi of arsenic. Another Test was the treatment of the seroue liquid with ammonia and nitrate of silver, which produced a yellow precipitate; and a third test with ammonia and sulphate of copper gave a liquid having a' fine green colour known :as Schecle's green, When the vapour test was applied, viz , by tho heating nf a por tion of the suspected liquid, the odour given oft resembled, as Dr. Walker described it, " garlic and tallow candles," a perfume characterise of the deadly miuerdl poisnn, The tissues, that is, the portions of the stomach and bowels, were found to be strongly impregnated with the poison. Dr. Walker reported the result ot his investi gation to Dr. Kichard9on yesterday, and found that that gentleman's experiments had

Fvoduccd Results Exactly Similar to those obtained by himself. Yesterday evening the doctors received instructions to complete the post mortem examination; it mutt be remebered,that at the first autopxy the investigation had been entirely continue! to the stomach and bowels. The body was found to be in astute of excellent preserva tion ; indeed, the smell given oil' was less noisome than two days before. It is a wll-kuown scientific fact that arsenic is an excellent preservative of the tissues of the body, the presence of the poison no doubt accounting for the fresh ness of the body. Bnt to return to the autopsy. The braia was found to be in a healthy condition, and the lungs and heart were likewise entirely tree from disease. The liver was, however, somewhat en larged. From the remarks let drop by the young woman while ou her death-bed, Dr. Walker ascertained the following tacts, which certainly would not agree very well with a Iheory of Suicide. The deceased stated that she left Kamil. ton in excellent health. At Mercer she had a cup of tea, and in the evening of the day of her arrival at Auckland, had tea at Mrs Butler'o, Cleaver being present. An hour or so later she went to bed, and at 10 o'clock that night the symptoms of stomachic irritation first" became apparent. During the whole of her illness she gave no reason to think she had partaken of any thing deleterious, and cheerfully took the medicines prescribed for her relief, Mr Robert Johnston, father- of the unfortunate girl, was inter viewed this afternoon. Mr Johnston, who is 76 years ot age, has taken the s»d occur rence very much to heart. He said that after his daughtei's trouble about the child he bailed her out and did .Ms best to comfor, and cheer her. During the illness that succeeded her confinement, some friend removed a razor from her bed room, fearing that she might become delirious awl lay violent hands on herself. About a week before she came to Auck land, she was in excellent health and spirits. She had been informed of the removal of the razor, and referring to that circumstance, said to her father, '! Do yon. think I would be such a fool as to take away my own life." Mr Johnston is porfectly certain that her death wis not occasitned by any act of her own, bat is quite unable to snpply facts that would help to clear up the mystery, fle in formed our reporter that " Sarah came from the Waikato to get married to Cleaver much against my will. 'Ihe Rev. Mr Willis and others persuaded her to come down and marry Cleaver, and I was overruled. lam as positive as I am alive that Sarah did not commit suicide." Thomas Clecwer, the bridegroom, was al<o seen. He is a fine-looking young roan, aged about 25 years. In response to a question it he had any statement to make, he said that all he knew about the affair was already pub lished. He' promised, however, to supply us with any tacts that may in future come to light, Tlie Stomach of the poisoned woman was taken posses sion of by the police, placed in a sealed jar, and banded over to Mr Pond, analytical cbemist. The result of his investigations will be made known at the adjourned in quest, ' The Funeral took place this afternoon immediately after tho conclusion of tho inquest, There were a large number of relatives and friends prosent. . The Inquest. An inquest on tbo body of the deceased was held at 2 o'clock this afternoon, at the ■ residence of Mrs Cleavor, Grey-street, before Dr. Goldsbro' and a jury, -of whom Ihos. Teasdale was chosen foreman Mr Super intendent Thomson wan present on behalf of. the police. The jury having viewed the body as it lay coffined in one of the bacK rooms of the house, Mr Thomson applied for an adjournment till Wednesday next. : The enquiry accordingly adjourned till i Wednesday next at the Naval and Family i Hotel.

Arsenical Poisoning. It may be interesting to mention, with , reference to arsenical poisoning that a fatal doac, according to Dr Swainc, is from two to three grains. Death may occur in a few hours, or after a lapse of days One man who took thirty gruina of powdered white arsenic died in six days. The symptoms, when given as a slow poisou, may be readily mistaken for those of inflammation of tho bowels.
