.oom Hogh, the eldest child, was five years X slept in the cot at the foot of his bed. Alick, the next one, slept with his father wbi'o tho infant was only two months old. I have alwaysfoundthe htfuse Ib be well aupplied with necessaries. After ' L inquest I had a conversation with Mrs . Hamilton when sho told me that everything W passed off very satisfactorily, that Dr. Pliiifon was a perfect gentleman, and that none of the jury had seemed to misdoubt het statcm- nt ■ ... Bosanna Pooley deposed :-I am the w.ie nf Wm. Daniel; Foo'cy, a carpenter, resid ing in West-str^t. . I called at Hamilton s house bn tho 28th of November, as I knew the family, although not intimately. I saw Mrs Hamilton on that occasion and had ' some conversation with her about her husband's death, when she explained to me how it kappened. She told ma that he had fallen neatest the edge of the bOd, which she shewed me. It is tho one in Court. Only otto portion of the bed (a piece about a firmer length at the foot) was exposed, and I asked her if it was there he had fallen, the r.piled, " yes," in a low tone. There was a tablo standing at tlio head of the bed, and a cot at the foot; I looked at the exposed patt Of the bed and it s-.cmed ouite clean. Tho mattress did not extend * the whole length of the bed ; there was about a linger length exposed at the foot. I didnotnbtice any blood then, but I saw Ebme on the floor and wall. The mattrass ; at the head of thb bed also siemed to be ' Vefy much s'.-lined with blood. I bad seen Hugh Hamilton on the eVching befoto lth627th) about 7.15 o clock, at my husband's house. He was then on ' his way to the Lodge, and I hid a few minutes conversation With him, He was 1 not In drink, nor was there any sigd of his having been drinking, I know Pnestldy by sinht inly. About two mouths ago 1 saw him in Mrs Hamilton's b:d-room, Mrs Bamltoli being then ill in bed, This was after her confinement; I was iv the room when he camo iv. He came hurrying in without giving any notice of his approach by knockUg or otherwise; "" he brought a letter for Mrs Hamilton, nnd then left the room. Mrs Hamilton read it. and then askod me to hand it over to Mr Priestley iv tho kitchen. That Is the only occasion on which .1 have known him to b« in ber bedroom. . Christina Cooper depoied ;. I am a , monthly nurse residing in Dublin-street,, Ponaonby. I know the female prisoner. ... I attended her in her last confinement, which took place oa or about the 4ih ' October last. I was three weeks in her house, and during that time her husbana Beemed to treat her well. She had everything that she askei for, and that I thought she should have. I never saw him illtre.it ber, aod if he had done so during that time I must have known of it. Sho did not appear, however, to appreciate her husbands kindness. I know the prisoner Priestly. He was very olten In the houso in the kitchen and in her bcd-ioom. Mrs Hamilton seemed to appreciate his attentions. On more than one occasion I refrained from en tering the bed-room for tbo purpose of doing various thing", simply because ' Prie tl'ey and Mrs Hamilton seemed to be : engaged Ii an interesting conversation. 1 "ain't at this moment say what were the "'duties I had to peiform, but I could have 'entered tbe room if I had liked, as the door * was open. I daresay I would havo gone if Priestley had not been there ;..my duties required me to go in. I have had at times conversations with Mrs Bamilton about her husband, when sho uicd to talk of her unhapfims* with him. Sometimes, 100, she talked ot getting a separation from A. him. Sbe al«o 'aid if it were not for Iter I . m tbei's grey hairs sho had an offer ot £50 to clear.out a»d live where fche wuuld never "ba heard of. On Saturday night I left Priestley and Mrs Hamilton " alone together, and went into her brother's. J i had not been lpng there when ,T returned, and faund Priestley in the and Hamilton running about look- Ting for a brandy bottU. I ask»d the latter ,Srhat was wrong, and ho said that hit wife "' had gone off in a faint. I remarked that 'that,was straiga. Hamilton and I went intoher room in order te restore ber, aud 1 Priestley thon left th« house. I complained lo Hamilton that she should go to often 'into a faint when he came home, aud he re r plied that when he he»rd ia the atreets that ' .Priestleywas so .frequently in the house | with his. wife he could not help feeling , sagryi In allusion to the matter of separa tion, Mrs Hamilton told me once that if an) thing were to bo done it was . ,'hereelf that must do it. She also mentioned that her hro'her was coming np from the Bay. During the time I was in the houso tho two elder . children slept in the room with their father and the infant with its mother. I cannot ' say that the bedstead in court was the one on which Hamilton slept; I think tho one he slept on wasla'ger than the one pro duced, and the whole ot it was covered with the mattrass and clothing It had, too, a sort of a c«uitcrp»no which hung over the bed so that the ironwork was : entirely covered over. The straw mattress was the full length, but the flax mattress was hnrdly so long, but it was the full width- It droopid a little towards the first. Sarah Neilsm depostd : I am iho wite of .Robert Meiison, one of Mrs Hamilton's .brothers, aud 1 )i»ed next door to the Hamilton's on the 28th November las', lt was at 7 o'clock on the morning of that day I first heard of Bamilton'a injuries. I was In bed at the time, lat ence dresiei my self, and went into HamiLon's house, . when I saw Mrs Hamilton. I asked ber how the affair bad happened, and sh» "replied that he had knooked himself against the bedstead. I then enquired what time he had come home aud she said .'Befoze 1 o'clock" as it was before the clock struck that hour. She did not tell mo what he did after he came in, At this time a doctor had been sent for, theraessen ger being Mrs Hamilton's other brother Alexander l«eilson who lived at Mount JBden. rH° bad oalled in on his way to his , work. 1 was present when the doctor came when I was told by Alexander to send her "out. I told her that she bad better go out and a little while afterwards she went into her mother's house, no one helped her out .Priestley was alodger in my mother-in-law's house, where also I lived. Be was mo=tly in Mk Hamilton's, two or three times every day, and 1 have been iv her house when he has been there. He did not confine himself to one room in it; I have heard Mrs Hamilt m speik of a , separation (between herself and her husband, shesaid that nothing would bring her happiness but death; or divorce. 1 can't say how Hamilton treated his.w'fo; I never knew him to ill-use her. As far as I saw, the house was supplied with everything that; was neces'ary,. The prisoners seemed to be on friendly teims, but 1 never saw any thing between them of which I could not approve.. r< ■•■' Elizabeth Hamilton deposed: I am the mother of the deceased Hugh .Hamilton. I went to his house on the morning of his: death, end I saw his wife there^ I asked her bow the affair happ?ned. She told me that he had come home drunk between one and two o'clock in the morning, and that she had called to him not to remove the lamp from her room; that he then went lo his rOom; when she heard a heavy fall j that she took no notice of it, but went to bed and fell asleep, not waking till daybreak, which weuld be about faur o'clock. She also said that when she got up in the morning she went into his room and bathed bis head with a spon«e. I cried out "Oh, my; did you let your husband bleed to death? and she replied, "How could I go for assistance 1 with a sick baby la my arms!" I said that I would have put the baby down in any comer and gone for a doctor-that 1 would have put the baby down and gone in my stocking soles rather than let my husband bleed to death _ The Court then adjourned for luncheon. On rcutniog at 2,15 o'clock, Dr. Golds bro' asked leave to administer some medi cine to the prisoner, who was very weak. Dr Goldsbro' was, however, first recalled by the Crown Prosecutpr. He said :—I do not believe that after receiving the fracture to his 9? mil he could have spoken again, risen, c'if traversed any part of the room. It muflhave produced instantaneous insen uibilitf j , . ..'.', . * M^J'arl: It is merely a question of be lief, cßc'or, isn't it ? . ' Dr VGolbsbro': No; insensibility must have betm the immediate result of the fracture/ lt was like the felling of a bullock.7 , , , , . „ The bViness was then suspended for a. quarter M an hour in order that Priestley mieht receive the needed medical relief. John barker was then called. He deposed^ I have charge of tbe packing de partment in Archibald Clark & iron's ware house. M'J be deceased -was employed in the «amepi|ceup till the time of his death. When iXheard of that event, on the 28th of Noveml/er, I went up to his bouse. I saw Mrs Hamilton there. In answer to my questions, sho told mo that her husbandf came home about 1 o clock, thatmolning, and went to her wmtogrt alishtACuauallydid. She sahL" Don t remove it; 1 may require it, as the child w m'^.tbatherepli^'aU right," n went away. She also told we tha 3 a fine, moonlight night,

After he had gone away she heard him fall five or six limes, and that she wodld never . forget tbo last fall; that it made the whole house shake' She said that *lie called to him, and he an swered that he had failed. Shotbcbiose dnd went into his bedrooiti when he sdid, pointing to the bed; '■ I have fallen and cut my hcitd. Try and stop the bleeding, ior lam getting faint with loss oi blood. But Ifwill haVe to tell my wife When I gd lioms," She told him, " You are in your own house now," bdt he niade no answer. Those were tho ■ last words he Spoke, fHo got hiiii intd liii bed with a great struggle, and bathed his head, after which he seemed much easier. I asKed her when she got tho doctor and (he said, "Abmt 7 o'clock." I asked her why she had not got him sooner, and she loplhd that she could not, as tbe baby was so ill that she could not If aye it, 1 sa;d: " Why did you not call your mother, next door ?'' She answered that her mother was very ill, and that the doctor was coming to see her in tbe merning. I then re-, marked "You could have got your sister thctt," and she repliod that Bhe waa not able to come, but that she had gone tin to the verandah to See if anyone was passing, either man or boy ; that she bhw no one until her brother Alick was passing, when she sent him for a doctor That i< all that I passed between us. Hamilton was rccetv- I ing £2 10s per week when he died, having reenved an advance of 6s some weeks pre viously. He was a good workman, sober, i I and steady. Mary Patterson deposed : I am the Wifo of Joseph Patterson, ahd reside at Mount Eden, I was Blightly acquainted wivh Hugh Bamilton. I went to his hou eon the morning of his death, about elcVtn o'clock. I saw Mis Hamilton there, and she told me that h«r husband had fallen against the ■ bed; thit sho heard a .groan, and on going to see what was the matter, fou.d him lying on the floor; that sho had to change his dnss and put on bis night shirt; that tbe blood had soaked thiough tho matting on the flaor, aud lay there in a clotted pool; and that she bad taken an iron spoon and »cooped it up. Shu said, 1 also, that she called her mother at 5 o'clock in the morning, nnd accounted for tbe de lay by explaining that she had not thought for a moment that Mr Hamilton was seriously hurt. Mary Anno Pnrccll deposed: Inm the Wife of Jame* Purcell, residing in Kixon stteot, «twton. I know the prisoner, Mrs Hamilton, and her brother, Mr Alexander Neilson. Shortly after Hamilton's death— on tbe 6th of December—Alexander Neil son came to me, and in consequence of what he told mo I went next m rniog t<> Mrs Hamilton's. I saw her, aod she showed mo where the bedclothes (blanKets, quilts, and sheets) were that I had to wash. Thoy woro soaking in two tubi. and the water was bloody. I washed .them,, nnd in doing s<i I noticed: a small bit of skiu nud hair, which I threw away. I also washed some other cl.thes that weie nut soaked, They were not bloody. Mrs Hamilton told me that the water ou the other clothes — the blcody once—had bctn changed twico; that her brother had changed the water on the night he came for her. On a snbsc quent occi'sion she washed sundry other articles, such as blankets, etc, tor Mrs Hamilton, besides cleaning tbe iloor of de ceased's room at herrtquost. Thee wore several spots upon tho flour, but no matting. 1 never had seen Hamilton before tho morning on which I went to wash for her, ' Mzabeth Hamilton, junior, deposed: I am the sister of Hugh Hamilton, and reside, with my porents in iho Domain. On the day of my brother's death I went to Mrs Robert Neilsoa's house about 1 o'clock, and ftom there 1 went into my brother's house, as Mrs Bamilton asked mo t) do so, I wont in through the back door, atd pn cod ing into the kitchen sat down on the sofa at the left hand side. [Placo maiked on sketch plan.]. I stopped in the house all night. A bunt 7 o'clock next morning I was sitting in tbo kitchan nursing tho baby, when.l saw Mrs Hamil ton coming thiough the passage Irom the direction of the frout rooms carrying a broom and an axe in her hand. Tbe broom produced is tho one, and I believe the axe is tho same one. The broom was.. carried in front of the axe. She went through the kitchen and the scullery to the back door, and passed through it to the yard. 1 stood up, and l,:ok'ng through the window taw her place tbe axe at the' b»ck of the well, aid cover the grass over it with her right hand. The' grass was tall at tkat place —between which aid the well there is a fence. She tben came back into the house with the broom. On tho previous night Mrs Hamilton drtw my attention to some blood in tho passage, saying, "Poor wretch I look what he has done." This blood waa on the wall in two places. Robert Nci'Son dep-.sed ; I am a settler residing at the Bay ot Islands, a brother of Mrs Hamilton, and the husband of Sarah Neilson, who* at present Uvea with fur mother in Bast-street, Newton, next door to the house in which the deceased lived, I arrived in Auckland from tbe Bay of Islands early oh the morning of tho 28ih November. It would be between eight and nine o'clock when I got home. When I got ther* I beard of tbe accident to Hugh Hamilton, After 1 had an interview with Mr Macnicol and ray mother 1 went into Hamilton's, and saw the body. They told me be was gone, and then went out on to tbo verandah, and walked up and down it for some time, and then returned to my mother's* There is a square inclosed apace (three feet square) at ihe end of the verandah, between tbe two houses, and I picked up there the axe produced. There were sdme spots upon it as if it were wet with the dew from the grass which grows there,to a height of 9 inches or 1 foot, ' The ends of tbe varandahs are boarded, and the space botwecn the two houses contains a close boarded fence six fet high. The fourth side of the encl'os td square contains a small picket fence, and as the grouud is high it could not be seen from the road»ay — only over the end of the versndnh. I throw the axe back where I found it, snd went into my moth- r's. I saw tho axe in the samo place >üb-equently on the same day, but not after that, George B. Monro, deposed: I am a minister ot the Presbyterian Church, re siding at Bemae.a. 1 ki.ow the pr soner, P iestley, well. T saw Lim or. the 6th of December at the meeting of the Presby'teiy in . Anckhwd, and had a shtitconv ration with him there. He asked me out of the Court; into the vestry of St. Andrew's Clinch, saying thit he had something to commun'ca'c to me, I asked him what it wa«, and lie sa;d that the det-ct'vea bad been at his lodgings, and told him rhat bo was sispected of being the cause of Hugh Hamilton's death. I said to him, "If thatisthecsse.howcanjouclear yourself if you are suspected ?" Be i epliod that he bad slept at Sliort's, at Maigare, on the Motday night upon which Hamilton was allegid to have leceived this Injury. I then advised him to go out to Mr short's, and get him tj assure him that he would come forward and givo either oral or written testimony to that effect. He said that he would go at once, I did not offer to defray his expense*. He did not retnrn to me, aid I have not seen (Left sitting),

Such withdrawal was not intended to be, and must not be, construed as any reflection or imputation against you in any way whatever, ether personally or professionally, and I shall sincerely regret if any persons so misconstrue it. My withdrawal was owing to tie fact that I felt convinced there was a want of congeniality between us, aad I therefore determined, both for your sake and my own, to sever the partner ship connection at the earliest possible moment.
