'fl -SECRET CLOSET:
on, le E AV :ELL nr,;OI,GIR
Alittle more then fifty years ago, a man by
the name of Henry Thorapscn called nt the
house of John Smith, mresident in a retired
part .of England, and requested a night's
lodging. This request was readily granted,
and the stranger, having taken sotne refresh
ments, retired early to bed, requesting that
ho might bo awakened betimes the -following
morning. When the servant appointed to call
him entered' the room for that purpose, he
was found in Lis bed perfectly acad. On .ex
amining his body no marks of violence ap
peared, but his countennnee ]coked extremely
natural. The story of his death soon silvery!
arming the neighbors. and enquiries were
made 11c to who ho ions, nod by what means
he came to his death.
Nothing certain, however, was known. He
had arrived on hersclamic, and wan Been PcM
eing through n neighboring village, nboutann
hour before lie reneliml the house, where ho
came to his end. :,Ind then, as to the matter
of his death; so little could bo discovered that
the jury which were summoned to investigate
the cause, returned a verdict that ho died "by
n visitetion of God." When this was done
the stranger was bulked.
Des and vre:kks pn'svcd on, nnd little further
was known. The public mind, however, was
not at rest. Suspicion existed that foul means
lino hastened the stranger's death. Whispers
to that' offset were expressed, and 'in the minds
of nanny, Smith Wins considered as the guilty
man. The former altimeter of Smith bad rot
been gc od. Ile had lived a loose and irregular
life, involved himself in debt by his extraca
ganco, and at length being suspected of having
obtained money wrongfully, ho suddenly fled
from the town. More than ten years, however,
Lad now elapsed since Apia return, during
whi, h he had lived nt his present residence,
apparently it good circumstances, and with
an improved diameter. His formntlife, how
ever, wee now, remembered, and suspicion
after all, fastened upon him.
At the expiration of two months, a gentle
man one day stopped in the place far the pur
pose of making inquiry respecting the stranger
who .had been found dead in his bad. Ile
supposed himself to ho a brother of the man.
.The horse and clothes of the unfortunate. man
still remained, and were immediately knoivn
no having belonged to his brother. The body
itself was nice taken up, and though consider
___ably_chonged,.bore a_strong. resemblance to
him. He now felt authorized to nocertain, if
possible, the manner of his death. He pro,
cdeded,,therefore, to investigate rho circum
stances as well as ho was able. At length he
mode known to the magistrate of the district,
the information he lind' collected, and upon
the strength of thin, Smith was taken to jail
to be tried for the wilful murder of Henry
Thompson.
Tho celebrated Lord Mansfield was then'on
the bench. He charged the jury to be cautious
no to finding a bill against the priscfner, The
evidexice of his guilt, it' guilty, might be small
At a future time it might he granter; mare
information might be obtained. Should the
jury now find a bill against him, and should
he'bß ncquittod, ho could not be Molested
.again, whatever testimony should rise up
against him. The grand jury, however, did
find a bill, but it one by a ,majority of onhf
one. At length the time of trial arrived,
Smitirwas brought into nowt and platted at
the bar. th great crowd thrtnged the room,
eager and anxious to see the prisoner, and to
hoar the trial. Hehimself appeared, firm and
eollOted. Nothing in Ili/3lippenTance or man
ner indicated guilt; nntl when the question
was put to him by the clerk, "are you guilty,
or not guilty P" ho answered with an unfalter
ing tongue, and with' a countenance perfectly
unchanged,- "not guilty."
The counsel for the preseoutiorfnow opened
the ease: And it was apparent Lolled little
expectation of being able to find the prisoner
guilty: Ho stated to tho:jury that the cake
was involved in grentusystery. The prisoner
was a man of icapectabilityl:Mad properly..

had left London for tho purpose of meeting
trader-at-hull; of
,Whom hp expected - to' make
a large purChtise. The trailer he 'did meet ;
end :, tiner the departure of the letter, Mr.
Thompson was known to have in his possession
gold and jewels to a large amount.
, With these in his possession, ho left Hull
on his return to London. It wasinot known
that ho 'stopped until ha reached Smith's, and
the next Morning he wait discovered 'deed "in
his bed. Its died, then, in Smith's' hOlie,
and if it could bo shown that he ''Amo to his
death in tin unnatural way, it would increase
the suspicion that the prisoner was in some
way connected with the murder. -
Now then, continued the counsel, it will be
prosied boyeMl the possibility of a doubt, that
the deceaseddied by poison. But what was
th-r poison? - It was a recent discovery of
some German chemists, said to be produced
by distilling the seed of the wild cherry tree..
It was a poison more powerful that any other
. known, and deprived one of life so immediately
as to leave no marks of Buffering, mid no con
torticns to the f7intures.
But then the question was, by whom was it
adMinislered 7 One.cireumstanee, a small Otto
indeed, and yet upon it miF it hang a horrid
tale, was that the stopper of a small bottle of
very sinslar, description bad been found in
this prisoner's house, The stopper had been
examined, and said by medical men to have
-belonged-toga-German-phial ;: containing — the
kind of poison which he bad described. But
then was that.poition administered by Smith,
or at his instigation? Who were the prison
el.'s family I. It. eotisisted only of himself, a
housekeeper, and one man servant. The man
servant slept in an out hones adjoining the
stable, and did so on the night of Thompson's
death. The prisoner slept at ono end of the
house, the housekeeper at the other, and the
. deceased had been put in it room adjoining
the housekeeper's.
It would be proved that about three hours
after midnight, on this night of Thompson's
death, light had been seen moving about the
house, and that a figure holding the light was
scietrto go from the room in which the prisoner
slept, to the hubslteefier's room;• the light
11017 ditaitriPelireil for a minute, when two per--
sons were seen, but whether they went into
Thompson's room, the witness could not - swear ;
but shortly- after they were .observed passing
quite through the entry to Smith's room, into ..
which they entered, mitt in about fivo minutes
•
the light was extinguished.
IstitneE - .,i sio,old further state, that utter
thou 'croon hail teturned with the light into .
Smith's, room, and hefore it was extinguished,
Ire hod twioo perceived sumo dark object to
intervene between the light and the window,
nlmort aslarg,e as the surfado of a window
itself, end Vlldeli he described by saying it
appeared as if a door lied been placed before
the light.
Now in Smith's room, there was nothing
which could aceuunt for this appearance; his
bed was in n different part; and there was
neither cupboard nor prose in the rosin, which,
but f - r the bed, was entirely empty, the ram
in which he dressed being at a distance beyond
it. The counsel for the prosecution hero
concluded what he bud to any. During is
address. Smith appeetsed in no who to be
agitated or disturbed, tiled equally unmoved
was he while the witness testified in substance
what tho opening speech of the counsel led
the court end jury to expect.
Lord Minefield now addressed the jury,. 110
told than that in his opinion the evidence we
net sufficient to condemn the prisoner, and
thht if the jury agreed with him in opinim
the court would - discharge him. Without
leaving their seats, the jury ngrood that tlt.o
evidence was not sufficient.
At this moment, when they were about to
render a verdict of acquittal, the prisoner
arose and'addreesed the court. Ile said iio
had been accupcd of a foul mime, and the
jury had said that the - evidence • was 'not suf
ficient to convict him. Did the jury mean
that there was; any .evidence against him?
Was be to go out of the court.with suspicions
resting upon-him, after all? This ho waa.un
willing to do. H6'Wll9 an innocent men, And,
if the judge would grant him the opporinnity,
he would prove it. .He would eall-his

keeper, who would confirm Ts statement which
ho'would now make.
The housekeeper bad not appeared in court.
She had concoalod herself, or had been con
cealed by Smith. This was considered a dark
sign against him. But he himself now offered
to bring her forward, and atntedos the reason,
not that he was unwilling that sbo should
testify,•but knowing the excitement, he was
fearful that she might he bribed to give testi.
many contrary to fact.
Buhl he Val now ready to relate all tho
circumstances lie know; she, might then ho
called, an t d be examined. if her testimony
does not confirm my story, let me be' con
demned.
The request of the prisoner seemed reason.
able, and Lord Mansfield, contrary to Lis initial,
practice, granted -
The prisoner went on with,his statement.
Ile said he wished to go out 'Of the court re.
lieved from the . suspicions tvhich•were resting
upon him. As to the poison, by means of
which the stranger was said to have died, Le i
knew neither the unine of it nor the effect of
it, nor 'even the existence of it, until outdo .

„Witness the truth of wl at he said.
And then, as to Mr. Thompson,-he wee a
