8 THE PARISH WILL CASE. Surrogate’s Court. Before A. W. Bradford, Raq. EXAMINATION OF DR. DELAFIELD CONTINUED. Q. How much of remedy or treatment was supplied to him, in the general tenor of his chronic illness? A. After immediate and more dangerous illness had sub- sided, and the object was to aid the efforts of his consti- ution in restoring mosion to the paralyzed parts, several remedies were employed; strychnine was used; eleotro- magnetism was employed a considerable time; NMttle else ‘but what was addressed to bis general constitution and condition. Q. Du his chronic illness, was he under any regimen a8 to diet, and with what degree of strict- nese’ A. During a large portion of the time | endeavor- ed to enforce @ somewh@t strict regimen—abstinence from wine and other stim ‘but mainly—re- ducing the amount of animal food, restricting it as much as possible, Q. fed =o attack how did you find ‘bim in regard to the obser of ), a compared with bis disposition and conduct his illness? A. For the frst few years lhe was more amenable to advice 1B these particulars than when in good health previously to the attack, but gradually he became less and less under control, and, in fact, during the latter year or two I found it made so littie diiference when he indulged in his oyrn way that I ceased wo urge it upon him. Q. ‘was the general tempersment of Mr. Purish affected by or after the attack? A. His nervous temperament be- came very much impaired, rendering him irritable, more easily excited than be‘ore, and to a certain extent chang- ‘ng bis disposition; I shouid nave said his nervous system became impaired, instead of his nervous tem; ent. Q. How did this impression his nervous system avanitest itself? A. As | bave y stated, mally by altering his disposition, but also by cai emotions of almost any kind to be more easily excited—if, for in- stance, a former friend would see him for the first time aiter his ey i Rod Ara ra Agcan ysm of weeping; was rincipal effect pro- juced, aside from the effect Spon depot generally. Q, What was bis temper as to after his at- tack, and was it consta2t or variable’ A, It was very constant, entirely changed trom its previous condition— habitually |, his count ance always wore an un- hai expression, and it .was a very rare thing to aes coe Q. Did you acquire from’ your observation ‘Orattendance upon him, any know! of the cause of this unhappiness or de; jon? A, It appeared to me obvious Unat it was ne Seer of re- covery, more especial Powers of speech. a Dia you give up, and te ‘90, at what time, the expecta. tion of his recovering the power of speecat A. I did give it up, but gradually, nst at a nite time, becoming less and less hopeful, until atter three or four years [had ceased to hope: What indications, on bis part, in re- fation to the po or exercise of speech, led you to ca tertain expectations of his recovery of that power? A From the efforts which at ene Gme he make to speak, which as [ have already stated in a few instances succeeded; but ‘a8 time went on, these efforts gradually and entirely ceased. Q. From what period were the efforts of Mr. Parish to- wards speaking laid aside’ A. Without attempting to be precise, these efforts were probably made in the first two , and not afterwards. to avy great extent, but as we repeat dly stated, | cannot tix dates in such things. Q. What was the general temper of Mr. Parish, a3 re- a evenness or placidity, previous to his attack? A. ery amiable, very placid habitually. Q How was it im these respects after his attack? A. The ch fe was not sudden, vot so retuarkable in the early " of bis disease; but by degrees he became more and more irritable ; this irritability I did not however attribute always to a change of disposition, but to the faet of constant difficulty in making himself un- derstood; again | may explain farther that im hi: case as iy the case of all mutes, the attempt to make up for the ‘Want of the power of speceh, by violent gesticulation, Was constantly made, and this gesticulation gives the ap- ‘of anger when none js felt. @. What tendency. ‘any, towards irritability of temper, does sickness or the condition of ap invalid generally produce? A. It Sours moat tempers. Q. What teadency, if aay, has im- paired health an: restriction or confipement, iv respect to the strength of the nervy system? A. It impairs the of the nervous system add increases its irritabili ty. Q Is this its tendency as a mere condition of i\iness jadepencent of the epecitic character of the di a ALAS a general rule it is true, more eepecially ip paintu! diseases, but with numero. exceptions im particular cases, con- samptives for ims!) « maintain amiable tempers through Out. &. What wae (Le genera! temper of Mr. Parish before his ilinese, iu respect to firmness or plivbility of will? A. He ‘was & wan of very nm temper, very decided in carrying out bis determination, whea once fully made. althe ‘ag I have already “tated, they were made «lowly, an might even apply the torm obstinate with correctness, to. his dispostion. Q What was his general temper, in the respects last inquired of, after bis attack? A. f observed novery marked change—tf any, the last word, obstinate, ‘Was more appiicabler Q. What was the manuer and de- meanor, as to intimacy and ailection, between Mr. aud Mrs. Parish, during their married life, up to the attack? A. There was nothing remarkable in it; he exh. no want of aifection; he was always amiable, kind, indulgent, excoedingly ; he was not a man of sentiment, but [should fay that perhaps the first part of my answer comes ax was nothing remarkable, nt of affection of hasband ‘as ,between most married couples, wife Q. What was the manner and demeanor of Mr. and Mrs. Parish towards ench other after the attack! A. With regard to Mrs. Parish she was undeviating in her devotion to ber husband during bis entire il!ness in every possible mode which could be expected of a good wife ; she would occasionally be disturbed, and her ner ‘vous system, from long continued watching and distress, a8 well as his, would sometimes be acted upon ; ia this respect, however, exhibiting no more than the common infrmiies whi h Buman dis tions are liable ; as to Mr. Parish, for some time, w was no remarkable e, but be gradually became more nervons, more ie, and especially as in the matter of dot. it was mecessary to crow: his inclinations very freq. ily and very constantly, and his wife was necessarily the instrument through whom all these crosses were juficted, he . frequently betrayed anger. and exhibited it by riciemt xesticulation, but it quickly away, and he woul relapee into his ordinary con . Q What was the Labit of intercourse between Mr. and Mrs. Parish before the attack, as respects the in. uence of the oue ever the other’ A. 1 should say ge perally that Mr. Parieh was in the habit of having his Own Way, and not being inflaenced by his wife; but ne. be was ap imiuigenthasband. Q. How was it im this reepect after the attack? A. AS far as she had influence at all, it became gradually lessened as far as } could see, which I attributed to the fact already stated, of the ne sessity under which she was placed, of constantly crossing him. @. Upon what occasions, amd as from wat Causes did you see exhibitions of {uritability oo the part Of Mr. Parish after his attack, of which you have spoken’ A. Cpon occasions, for instance, where articles of food he wes of he would be urged not to take; now and thea, when he was apparently propoweng a 4 body, and anxions to get the \aformation, silow her to interpret for him, and was this would, of course, get him into greater difficulty and increase his impatience.

The Fort Washington Affray. CONCLUSION OF THE CORONER'S INQUEST—TESTI- MONY OF THE ONE WHO, IT WAS REPORTED, STRUCK THE LAST BLOW—VEBDICT OF THB JURY, BXONERATING ALL PARTIES FROM BLAME. The inquest upon the body of George Bolster, the coachman in the employment of Mr. Hopkins, of Fort Was! jon, who was killed in an affray on Sunday, the 20th WR, was concluded on Saturday by Coroner Hills. The evidence furnished was exceedingly interesting, e3- pecially as ‘‘the small man in white clothes’? came for- ward and delivered his testimony in the case. Thename of this person is James F. Wenman. He was on a visit to Mr. Stewart's house on the day of the occurrence. Mr, O'Conor was also recalled and examined briefly. The following report of the proceedings will be read with interest: — Charles O’Conor, recalled, deposed—Tbat he returned to the honse, immediately after deceased wa3 struck, to quiet the family, there he made use of some expressions, but he could not say that they had any reference to the ‘ jttle man,’ he returned to deceased, when it was said that be was dying, 1 picked up the club with the pail in it; [ could not reeognize the little man if he was here; I offered my stick to this little man once, but he refused to take it, as he had one already; I think that the act was purely justifiable; if I did know the name of the man who struck the fatal blow, I would not feel bound to give information on that point; | think I aa the first turn of the around the legs of deceased. Thomes J. Stewart, being duly sworn, said:—I reside opposite Mr. Hopkins’ place; about half-past 8 o'clock on Sunday evening one of my daughters told me that there ‘was dreadful fighting going on at Mr. Hopbins’ house, aud that Mrs. H. had come over to beg my assistance; | ran towards my back gate, when I met my gardener; [ asked him to go with me; he said ‘Yes, sir,’’ bat made no mo- tion to go; be is naturally timid; n told him to follow me, which he did, with great reluel ; I was without my bat, arms, or stick of any kind; as we approached the house, I saw that the disturbance was in the east ter- race; Mr. Hopkins was on the ground, while deceased was ‘on top of him: Mr. Havens was bent over, pulling off the drunken man; the ladies of the house and servant maids were screaming with fright; I mrcnas 20 the drunken man, seizing lim by the Lap Say h forced bim to let Mr. H. up; no other men were the place; my gardener also seized him by the arm; with great ex- ertion the drunken man got upon his feet again; I then for the first time saw his face; when he got om his feet he struck at us, and we retired; the family fled to the beuse; ae he turned, Hopkins and myself seized him again: [think at this time three or four persons, stran- gers, were there: fiuding we had aid, I called’ out to throw him down and tie bim; we did the former; & rope was brought trom the kitchen, but be- fore we could fasten it around him, he made a few desperate struggles and agai freed himself; ax he arose, my head being bent down whip aiding in ticing him, be struck me a blow upon the cr@Wn of the head and immediately afterwards seized me by the hair, bringing my bead to the ground, which ed him over, he carrying me along with bim, rping me by the Lair; about this period some cne, 1 don’t know who, struck him in the face, which forced him to release bis grasp of my hair; be was then rolled off the terrace on the gravel waik. about five feet in distance; he then ran towards the stable, as I thought, for a weayon; be ran = although intoxicated; when he got near the stable seemed to change bis mind and rap towards the kiteben door; all this time he was ci and threaten- ing Havens and Hopkins; there were or ten per- sons en the terrace at the time; we moved towards the kitchen door to prevent his entry to the fe ap be seemed to desire to do; we all tried to soothe ; When within eight feet of us he stood a few moments undeter- mined what to do: we exp: stalated with him; Hopkins anc Havens were both in the house; my gardener did nos remain — the time ——- was rolled off eee George thea ran towards the east gate, apparently to fol- low our aivice and leave the place; he went out the east gate; some of the ladies then came out, but exprefsed fears that he might retarn when we had gone. We walked along the roadside fence to try to discover him. It was now quite dark: I found m: near the west gate with Mr. O’Conor and his stepson, when I saw the man in the wood near the gate; I turned to go ont of that gate towards my house; my object was to get some arms or weaj wv my own life; the man had a large stone in hiv ri hand uplifted, with which be menaced me; finding that I could ne out of that ithout coming in close contact bim I ran to- wards the east Mr. O'Conor and stepson following me, the man keeping pace with us on the road and mena- cing us l remarked to Mr. O'Conor that I was going for i; hie stepson exclaimed, ‘I will lend you mine,’ handed me; 1 took the pistol, whieh was an or. divary pocket pistol, single barreled: [ said, « very well, l wil pow stay; ' the man entered the east gaie and ap- prouched us three; a servant maid, who was near, ap- proached lim and tried to soothe him, begging nim to re- tire; this seemed to exasperate him the more, and he was in the act of striking her with the a stone; Mr. 0 Conor was evidently alarmed lest be should do so, and cried out i a loud tone, “George, we are going to fire— we will shoet you,’ orwords to that effect; he algo added, eave, OF ZO Awa, making gestures for him to go away: this topped bis apparent attack upon the woman. be Was about eight paces from us; be left the woman ran towards me, g the stone upraised; when he had got half the distance I presented the pistol towards his legs and fired; I could not possibly haye missed him if I bad fired towards his body, as we were so near; I had no desire to take his iif, but simply to jaune him to protect myself, be stood a second at the smoke, and then sprang at me: | turned and towards the house: 1 do net Know with what the pistol was loaded, George «lipped on the grass and almost fell, twice ] looked around and saw bim continuing to run towards Hopkins’ house; he fell prostrate upon the wel walk, which alone enabled me to get up the steps, r or five persons ran up to him; a general scuffle en- sued, I cuteret the honse; being exhausted | romained in the houre from five to ten minutes to recover; Mr. H.
