father. When she spoke of her own suffering did she not mean the same misfortune that she then laboured under?--She said she should be glad Cranstoun should be taken and brought to justice; she thought it would bring the whole to light, he being the occasion of it all, for she suffered (by being in prison) and was innocent, and knew nothing that it was poison no more than I or any one person in the house. [Sidenote: T. Cawley] THOMAS CAWLEY, examined--I have known Miss Blandy twenty years and upwards, and her father likewise; I was intimate in the family, and have frequently drunk tea there. What was her behaviour to her father during your knowledge of her?--I never saw any other than dutiful. [Sidenote: T. Staverton] THOMAS STAVERTON, examined--I have lived near them five or six and twenty years and upwards, and was always intimate with them; I always thought they were two happy people, he happy in a daughter and she in a father, as any in the world. The last time she was at our house she expressed her father had had many wives laid out for him, but she was satisfied he never would marry till she was settled. |
