juently befot Anderson ; Mr. Anderson gave he bought arsenic in Newark ; stated these facta to was Dr. Perrine; I spoke to my wife about it; I did itina joking way; said to Dr. Perrine that there was an officer alter it; he wanted to know all about it, andItold him; An- derson had conversation with me about the foun- tain, ‘Mrs. Howell testified that they came home from a ball very angry and had very hard words; M Anderson was Very angry at the attentions to her by Dr. Irish; they seemed very unhappy next day; I told my sister-in-law that I should re- turn home; she said that it almost always occurred when they went out together, gud that it would oon blow over, ‘ Q. Did Mrs, Anderson ever say anything to you on the subject of her relations with ker husband, and if so, what? Mr. Tracy objected that these ex parte declara- tions had already been excluded by the Court, and went on to argue that the defence had confined itself to the affectionate relations between the husband and wife, and thi Was perfectly competent. Clearly that kind of evidence was admissible for the purpose of contradicting the evidence of the Coburns that Anderson was jealous of his wife as early as 1869, and without reference to their feelings at all the fact that Anderson continued to live with his wife happily down to the day of his death was the only evidence they could introduce to show that ANDERSON LOVED 118. WIFE and had faith in her till the day of his @eath. Such evidence did not open the door for any ¢ parle declarations made by Mrs. Anderson. Mr. Britton briefly rejoined that the question had already been passed upon by the Court. Judge Pratt ruled that the question was ad- Dissible. Exception taken. Examination resumed—Question repeated. Bhe said that she “could ear him—that SHE HATED HIM— that she didn’t care if she neversaw him again un- less it was as a corpse, and that if she saw him a corpse she would be @ happy woman,” (Sensa- tion.) Q. What further did she say? A, She said she would never like him again—that she could never forgive him. She said she had been offered a home 4s a companion for Mrs. Irish. She said that SHE LOVED THE DOCTOR— that he was a very affectionate man and that, sbe could be a lad: This was all In one conversation, Q. What did she say about her friends ? Objected to and excluded, The District Attorney processed to show that she stated that all her friends despisod him. Q. What did she say about going to ride with the Doctor? Objected to. Judge Pratt said the witness could answer any uestions which tended to show Mrs, Anderson's eee to her husband, Mr. Britton remarked that the question could be stricken out if it were not admissible. Mr. Tracy—This 1s not exactly a horse trial. (Laugiter.) uestion excluded. o . What did she say on the subject of her hus- band having forbidden her to ride with the Doctor? Objected to and admitted as evidence to show the stato of feelings. Exception. A. She sald that Ed. was so ugly he WOULD NOT LET HER GO OUT RIDING ANY MORE ‘with the Doctor, and that she had had a nice time riding at Prospect Park with the Doctor, but Pouldn’t do so any more because Ed. was so ugly. Q. What did she say im reierence to the Doctor having a night-key to her house? Excluded. . ‘ Q, State any other conversation in relation to her feelings for her husband or his for her. A. On the 6th of March last she told me.he had been ugly for @ month at my house at Yonkers, and that there huust be something done, because she couldn t live with him, \ CROSS-BX AMINATION, | To Mr. Morris—Was examined before the Coro- her; can’t say whether I stated any of these things before the Coroner; I stated that Mra, Anderson peavey she could not bear him; did not state any- ut bout the subject of her riding with the Doctor; stated that they were living very unhap- ily together; had ne idea that there was an im- roper ered between Dr. Irish and Mrs, Ander- jon when I invited her to my house; believed her be @ virtuous woman at that time. { REDIRECT. : Was not asked respecting these matters to which [have now testifted at the Inquest, JOHN P. ANDERSON, heing called, testified :—I saw Mrs. Anderson at my nee house the morning after her husband’s leath, Mr. Tracy objected to any evidence as to admis- pions made subsequent to the death. Q. Do you remember any declaration made by her on the subject of her relations with her husband during his lifetime? A. She said that she had been allalong airaid of him. : Mr. Tracy—Was this during his lifetime? Wit- ness—No; I never heard any during his lifetime. ISAIAH ANDERSON @eposed—I am a brother of the deceased; I never had any conyersation with Mrs. Anderson as to he: relations with her husband. <j Q. Had you any conversation with your brother pn that subject ¥ , Mr. Tracy—During his lifetime ? Mr. Britton—He could not talk any afterwards, A Laughter.) Mr. Tracy—That isn’t so certain. It’s necessary Yo be careful in these days as to that. * Mr. Britton offered to show that Mr. Anderson knew ail about THE CRIMINAL INTIMACY With Dr. Irish. Mr. Tracy strenuously objected that this was not legal evidence. ¥ e Court said that whatever the mind of Mr. Anderson might ave been it threw no light upon his motive un she Knew it. Any declaration to be admissibic must be made in presence of the accused or ol Mrs, Anderson. FORREST COBURN ‘Was recalled and examined. He remembered the circumstance to which he heretofore testified; had a conversation with Mrs, Anderson subsequently. Q. What did she say in reference to her feelings at that timer Objected to and admitted. A. I met her on one occasion when she had a BiIK dress on, an id she was dressing very gay, ‘and she sald it was given her by the doctor (this answer was stricken out); remember about the conversation in reference to her asking the doctor to apologize to her husband. Q. What was itt Dbjected to. Q. What did she say of hating Ed. and loving the doctor? Objected to. A.—vn the morning of Mr. Van Gilder's funeral I found Mrs. Anderson beside my sister in her artments; my sister was crying; Mrs, Anderson said, “As true as there is a God inteaven, if it was Ed fa dance on his grave;" she said she wished it was Ed; in i869 1 have heard her four or five tames say that Ed was a drunken loafer, and only once that she wished he was dead. Cross-examined—To Mr. Morris—I was not at Mrs. Bloomer's the otner night; have been-there since I was last examined; didn’t kick up arow at the tea table; never bad any words in her house; spoke to her at the area way door, and didn’t say tt was her fault because the exposure of me had been made of me in Court; toid her that she, among others, had been making remarks about my charac- ter; didn't say it was her fault; asked her tf she had said anything in regard to my character, and she said she had not; went for information to find out the man who had been talking about me; there ‘Was no quarrel; saw no boarders; had not a loud talk; this Was two or tree night ago; didn’t write a letter to Mrs, Van Glider to send me seme money to bring family here; can't say if remark about dancing upon Ed’s grave was heard by Mrs, Van Glider; I didn’t say anything to her; don’t know how near she was to Mrs. Van Gilder; don’t know who she was speaking to; she was consoling Mra, Van Gtider, and made this remark to console her, I suppose. Re-direct—To Mr. Britton—When I went around to Willoughby street I went around to try and | ot mip my character, which, I understood, was eing impeached. Wrote to the District Attorney ‘for money to come on, and it was understood I was have expenses paid if came on; Mrs, Van Gilder DISAPPEARANCE OF A WITNESS. Mr. Tracy asserted that the defence had had an ‘officer at Mrs. Van Gilder’s residence every day for the purpose of subpaenaing her, but that she was not there, and had been taken out of the city. Witness—Last saw her at twelve o'clock to-day; “saw her on Tuesday and took medicine to her. Recross-examined—To Mr. Morris—Don't re- member swearing that Monday was the last time I saw Mrs. Van Gilder; didn’t understand the + an to call for that; went around to Mrs. lonn’s to protect myself against slander and libel on my character. WIS ANDERSON L (recalled) deposed , State any conversation with Mrs, Anderson prior to death of her husband as to her relations with him? A, Called at their house about two weeks previous to his death, and she commenced to speak to me of her husband's unkindness to her; that he had been to a Dutch ball all night and she had to put tea leaves on his eyes, and that on one occasion he had THREATENED TO SHOOT HER and she hid his pistol my father, but she but she said she was going to the country for a few days and when she came back she would put @ stop toit; she also said that had got so bad that Anytime he went out sme didn’t care if he came 1m dead or alive, HANNAH COBURN festified to having heard Mrs. Anderson ray that Ed. was vothing but a drunken loafer and she Wished be was «i and heard her say to Mrs, Van Gilder, while weeping for her husband, that if he was dead she would dress in red, white and blue and dance on hiv grave, J. W. COBURN testified that on one occasion when he asked how Ed was, Mrs, Anderson replied that she wished he was dead. It was now adjournment had arrived. ‘The District Attorney ald he had a few more witnesses to examine and would only occupy about an hour and a half more. The Court, after consulting the convenience of the jury, adjourned Court till half-past ning to-day, | BM. ¢ this was the first time together, and as unacquainted chanism of ous guns, the shooting made by them in the course of the afternoon must be set down as first class.
