REMARKS.

I

[This was a case of Murder, and I prepared the Bill in that shape. The Grand Jury, however, ignored_it. thought it my duty to try them again on a Bill for Manslaughter, which I sent in, and which met the same fate.

I think this case ought to be proceeded with again, particu-
larly as the Government offered a reward of £100 in
the apprehension of the Prisoner.
