Mr Pulford had frequently pur chased other drugs at witness s establish ment Mr Pulford seemed to be all right, and signed his name proper y. He did not notice any smell of alcohol Mr Pulford produced a bundle of letters, and said ho had more work than he could do, as he had to answer all those letters. Where deceased was found was about 320 yards from witness s 8h By Constable Graham : Mr Pulford also took twenty grains of chloral while in the shop! He wanted eighty grams and said that he was in the habit of taking that amount. Witness only gave twenty grains, as he knew that was a perfectly safe dose. Deceased remained talking with witness for some time. Had he smelled liquor, he would not have sup plied the chloral. James Harris, carpenter, deposed that about seven minutes to seven o clock on the previous night he was passing Tole's paddoclc. He heard a man snoring at the other side of the htidifo: and as he got up to the opening where the body was found he saw a young fellow looking at the deceased. \\ ltness asked what was the matter, and the man replied that it was somebody drnfifc, sleepim* it off.

Witness sent for Dr. Knight, and afterwards he removed the body to his late residence. He did not smell liquor about the body. Witness found upon the body a packet of chloral, pocket-book, package of letters, key, knife, and some small coin (produced). The jury, after retiring for a few minutes, returned the following verdict :-" That the jury are of opinion that death was the result of natural causes."
