short time after sold the house T*ltchell ca me
to 'Dyadic!) tusk eaid old womanhad plat a
large silveritrate on th e door, ' and what was '-he
to do; I lel him to let it be as it 'would avoid
trouble; at another time heaaid ho had a terrible
time.with the old lady;ahe accusing him of--rob
bing her; I edirlied, him to leave there; these
conversationswere•of nolnterest to me, and I
cautioned it was not prudent to
make such remarks; he came, to my, °Mee:
a nd add a very good thing might - be made by
buying the interest of the heirs
e f Htil, as it
could be bought for`oneshalf or one-third at the
eXtr(1:130; /11311; the old lady would rnot nee long";
I noticed always he spited-his' convenience by •
, saying she would. last long or, would not last
long; I told him he could- look forward at the
. death of the old lady to inherit, her estate, and he
had bettek submit to little troubles; he said she was
a very bad VoteanLl said alieseeme4 kintl,and he
said, "Oh,' ye I/
s, WIW . any one comes In the hotise
she knows hew to be kind;" he - always mani
fested a feeling at these interviews, and I en
deavored pueress it; he called her an old
b—b, 'end thet ' 'kind of language; I
thought little of :hese 'eircumstances until the
murder occurred; there, was some approach to
threats; he has said he would kill the old b—h;"
I always cautioned him atiaitist making the re
f marks, and tried to break down the feeling, tell
ing him he ought to leave the house; they were
strangers to me until I sold the house, and . I
lobkedupcinnim as a pleasant young man, and
I ruebidmi Yon might eon dolly; I'dropped
six or eight months ago; I used to stop at Mr.,
Yanleer's stable, Tentn street, below Walnut.
• where he kept his horses, and Etc him there; we
would go from the stable down talking, and fin
!fr.sh up the conversation at. Tenth and Pine,on the
corner. • •
Qtiestfon--How many horsebTid he keep ? -
Objected" to, as his keeping horses had nothing
to dolvithathe murder.
Mr. Start offered to show the prisoner kept
Viree,nortes and a phaeton, and had no money,
his property being levied on at the time of the
murder.
O'Byrne objected,as the embarrassments of
the prisoner could , not be shown at all, as you
cannot infer a presumption from a presumption.
The motive must ibe shown; nakedly, and not
• from an existing cause. • ,
Mr. Ilagert admitted that this was a case of
I , ,,eirenrettinces, , and 'he knew none more Ina.'
portant, than Ito show the 'want <of money, the
property being under execution. How could
motive be proved in,any Other way than this ? If
inateed Of the motive being lucre or gain it was
malice or revenge, could not the quarrels and
threats be shown ? In Winnemore's case it was
allowed to, be shown he was poor and could not
pay board.' No preaumptions were proposed,
but a fact was desired to be proved to show cause
for the murder. • • • •
Mr. Mann said It was the' octrine a good long
timetigo to'show that because a man was poor he
.• would be more liable to be tempted. It never was
• the law, however, then, nor is,it , now. A good
man will not give way to temptation, but the
/ tempter comes to all alike. In ,other cases,
money. the fruit of a robbery, was 'found on the
I:Abetter, and this led to evidence to show be had
no money before the commission of the crime.
Is it, a circumstance to add poverty to the case of
a Man whose house has been invaded and his
Iroother.killed? Would it be `contended the
afflictions of Job could be given in evidence were
be, cborged with murder? It, would be absurd to
she that a man living on the bounty of a woman
kinedher to stop that bounty.
JUNO Brewster decided that neither the pole
arty nor wealth of a man would affect his Status
in the eve of the law. The law is a practical sci
ence and deals , with a pan as it finds ,him. Mo
tives are always allowed to be proven, as shown
in Prof. Webster's case and those of Gottlieb
Williams and Winnemore; not because poverty
is an evidence of crime, but as showing motive.
It would be competent to show the defendant
was'prened. Einme men can`be ever so poet and
yet have contentment, which is great riches. In
addition to poverty a man may be extravagant
80 aa to lead to his, property having eta
, cations upon it, driving bini„ to pressure,
and this could be 'shown. If t a\ tumbler of
water were placed in a room and ItlrElB drank,
and circumstantial evidence showed that a man
entered the room and quaffed the liquid, it would
X,/ be competent to show the man was dying of
thirst. Here a human life had disappeared, and
certainly the Commonwealth has a right to the
• motive which occasioned the disappearance. I;
, had already been shown that a due bill of the de-
V;" endant was possession of the deceased, and it
ra was competent to show that • be had not the
money tojaay . it.
Judge 'Ludlow said he concurred In all said by
Judge Brewster, and for the reasons he gave.
1.0*,.' judge Brewster told the Commonwealth's of.
Beer to preCeed, leaving out the horses.

Hill's widow; he died in February, 1866; the 18th,
I think: he resided in Tenth street; opposite the
Jefferson College; Mr. and Mrs. Twitch.ell were
not residing with them at the time; they had been
married a year or upwards at the time of his
death; I visited Mrs. Hill occasionally after she
removed to Tenth and Pine; I was her agent after
the death'of her husband; Mrs. Twitchell and
Mrs. Hill appeared to be friendly until July last;
in the latter part of July,a gentleman, a stranger
to me, called at my residence and inquired for
me.

said I went to Mrs. Hill's residence and informed
her—
Objected to and sustained.
Witness resumed—Mr. Twitchell was not pre
sent at the interview;he came in the dining-room
after the interview; his wife went after him and
be came in in a very excited state, asking why I
came there making a disturbance in the family,
and coupled it with "I give you ten minutes to
get out of this house;" I told him I was in no har
ry, and be went on to state I had better attend
to my bnelnees; he demanded me to leave
the , holm° again' 'in ton minutes; , I
answered hitn I was there - ' on busi
ness with Mrs. Hill, and would not bo in a hurry;
he said if I did not go he would take Me oat with ,
a police officer; "I told him to use his plowilure,
probably, that would, be tbe better way; he got

amined the papers to see if the title was in Mrs.

The clothing was under the control of the Court;

to a doctor, and he was about to say, even then
the consent of the Commonwealth should be ob

lead to the destruction of vital evidence.

Mr. Collls-We can't tell yet who they are.
Judge Ludlow—Suppose a man took these
garments and immediately destroyed them.
Mr. Mann—We have no objection to Mr. Lud
low, the junior counsel for the Commonwealth,
accompanying the clothing.
Judge Brewster—An army might go, and yet a
man armed with one bottle of acid could destroy
an entire garment, together with the evidences.
As it is not desired to submit the clothing to
chemical analysts, why not have the expert ex
amine it in a room adjoining the court-room.
Mr. Mann—Because there may not be light
sufficient.
Judge Brewster—Well, name your expert, and
perhaps we may be able to arrive at a satisfactory
issue. -
Mr. Mann—No,'sir; and if we are denied we
will go to the jury wth the denial. Adjourned.
