Mr. Page, who evidently stood in bodily fear of the prowess of his spouse, in doleful accents in— formed the Magistrates that for some years past his wife had been in the habit of attacking him, both with fist and foot, and that latterly she had addicted herself so inveterately to drink, that all his earnings found their way to the gin-shop.
