cuts of a sharp instrument on her face, one on her neck, and
on the left side of her chest. As far as he could judge, he
believed they were inflicted with a knife. He did not con-
sider either of the wounds dangerous at the time. She is
still under his care, and the wounds are all healed, except the
one on the side of her chest.
John Carter, surgeon, and dresser to Mr. Chandler, senior
surgeon at St. Thomas’s hospital, said, that on Friday the
26th of September last, two wounded persons were brought
to the hospital: one was Mr. Jones, the other his servant,
Mary Berry. He examined and dressed the wounds; they
appeared to be incised wounds, and had every appearance of
being inflicted by a sharp instrument: they might have been
done by a knife like the one then produced. [Here the wit-
ness was shewn the knife the prisoner took with him to
Jones’s house.] Mr. Jones was wounded on the left side of
the cheek and neck, and part of his left ear was cut off;
there was also a wound on the back of his left hand, which
had divided one of the tendons and part of another; he did
not consider the wounds dangerous. Mary Berry was
wounded on her right arm by a very deep cut, her hand was
cut, and one of the tendons of her finger was divided; she
had also a cut on the left side of her neck, and one on her
forehead; he did not consider her wounds were likely to
prove mortal, when he examined them; both Mr. Jones and
Mary Berry are still under his care.
Mr. Win. Lukes, surgeon, St. Thomas’s hospital, said,
that on the 26th of September, Mr. Jones and his servant
were brought to the hospital. The clothes he produced
were those worn by Mr. Jones when he was wounded; they
were covered with dirt and blood, and exactly in the same
state at that time as when he first received them. The knife
he produced he received from a young man; it was bloody
then, and is become quite rusty; he delivered the knife to
Holmes and Mr. Hall; an officer received the bloody
clothes.
