attended with thunder, lightning and rain, Jones, who was a spectator, stung with guilt and horror, rushed through the crown, exclaming, 'I AM THE MURDERER!' and delivered himself into the hands of justice. The woman was immediately cut down, and medical aid procured, but the vital spark had gone for ever. He fully confessed his guilt, but declared the murder was not premeditated, but he was struck with a desire to gain their riches, and he intended to have murdered his sweetheart also. He is fully committed for trial at next Assizes.
copy of verses.
Yu servant girls both far and uear,
I pray you to attend,
And be advis'd by theae few lines,
Which I in jail have pen'd.
While you are in your Master's house,
If you'll be rull'd by me,
Don't let your sweethearts come by night,
A courting nnto thee.
