ABDUCTION OF MISS GLENN. 477
1 believe I had slept there the night before. Mrs. Mulraine
was perhaps every day in or out; but I am not certain ; I
cannot bring it to my mind ; she had been there that day; I
cannot say what brought her there that night. I cannot say,
to be certain, whether she slept there; I believe she had not
dined there. I do not wish to say what I do not know; she
was there to tea. I do not know exactly what time she did go
away; we usually drank tea sometimes at five, and sometimes
at six o’clock; that night, perhaps, it might have been seven
when she left. I had not been at Holway, at the time Miss
Glenn was living there. It was after that I came to Mrs.
Bowditch’s. I was in lodgings first. I know her person,
but never before Miss Glenn came into the house. I staid
(here at first, I think, three days. Miss Glenn did not know
I was there when she was sitting on the side of the bed.
She talked to Mrs. Mulraine.
Francis Smith sworn; examinedby Mr. Jeremy.
I was at Mrs. Bowditch’s on the night of the 21st of
September. Mr. James Bowditch came after me. It was
about nine o’clock when he fetched me. It was ten when
I came there. I went to town after a gig. I drove the
horse and gig over to Holway, and left it standing under a
hay rick. I staid there. I got up in the gig and dropped
asleep. James Bowditch came and waked me, and told me
I should not go to sleep ; I then went into the house, when a
young lady came out of Mrs. Bow'ditch’s house. James and
William Bowditch came out with her. The young lady went
up into the gig, and Mr. James Bowditch went up into the
gig. The young lady said to Mr. William Bowditch,
“ Come up, there is plenty of room.” He said, “ No, I
shall come on upon the pony.” They had got two bundles
with them. I reached them up to the young lady in the gig.
Mr. Bowditch went on, and as they went away, the young
lady said, “ Let we drive along.” He told me to light out a
candle upon the common. They told me to open the gates.
I went into the house and took out the pony for Mr. William
Bowditch.
