Dr. Morton, Summer-hill, Nenagh, on Saturday, the 12th instant. The priv- cipal evidence for the prosecuti ym was

that of Nanny Ralph, a servant in the| empl loyment of Dr. Morton, who deposed that on the day in question the prisoner | called at her master’s house and asked if Dr. Morton was in. She replied that he was not, Mrs. Mortou
