- '1hen came the evidence of Mr. Nolan. He described his visit to Mr. Needham on Saturday morning. He had received a- telegraphic message from Dublin relating to some nancial business, _ which he thought it desirable Mr. Nsedham should see. _Mr. Needhazn was in nancial dim- ' culties far more serioin than he, his sohci- tor, had contemplated, although serious enough to give him great anxiety. He found Mr. Needham not in his usual state of health, but d6pI'8:S61; looking very weary and tired, yetfull of intellectual and mental resource. He shouldn t say that be exhibited the slightest tokens of insanity. It was not his intention to stay and break- fast with Mr. Needham, but he remained, and they talked over a great mauv busi- ness matters in relation both to the London and the Dublin banks, and to `some ques- tions of mortgages and other securities. He left Mr. Needham about half-past three in the afternoon, and that was the last time he sawhim alive. j -.IHenry Neelham, brother of. the deceased, next gave evidence of an unimportant char- acter, with the exception of the `reproduc- tion of the letter with which the reader is - already acquainted. The witness was very much affected during the reading of the letter, and once or twice was so much over- come that ha paused and turnel away his head to wipe the tears from his eyes. The dead gilenc: in the court was ampie evi- I dence ofths deep sympathy that was felt for the witness and otliel` members of his family. ' T`l'___,_ 15,1. A :1, `(V ___ B1 ! Y r\ Horace Byles, of the" rm of Byles, Grant 85 Byles, solicitors, L'mb:1rl street, deposed that on the morning of Friday" preceding his dzafh, the deceasel, John Needham, called upon h-m anl asked for nancial as- sistance in the in terests of the N zeiham Joint Stock bank. showing him some tele- graphic messages 7119 had receive! from Dublin on the subject of their wan':s. pro- posed several schemes_ for witness consid- eration in regard to raising 111011)) , and `after he (Horace B Jles) told. him they were not such schemes as he could recommend or adopt, Needham grew `very excited anl ex- claimei, Great God! If the bank fails it will be my fault and the ruin of thousands." He Walked` abut the olce with his hand to his head, and urged witness to help him. He hal not been on very friendly terms with Needhatn for some time previously to this interview, on account chiey of adie- appointment in money matters. About a month before his death he remembered that a securitv Needham had given him, 11pO_.1 which he had found money for the Irish bank, had not been registe're_ andafter Need- ham lefton Friday he u Iermiued to have it registered. There was something so de- spairing in Needham s manner that he felt the bank was on the eve of collapse. During- the conversaion he (witness) mentioned this security to Needham, anl therewas something so strange in his manner he (witness) had a suddensuspicion that there was something wrong about it. ` He there- } tore sent his partner with the deed to Dub- 5111; On arriving there he was not long in `discovering that it was a `forgery. The _'_oi1`rity purported to be a deed given on ` e purchase of an estate in" the encum. bered estate; court.

It had a real seal of the encumberei estates court attached to it, but there was no doubt it had` been transferred from some other genuin: deed. He (witness) attributed Needhams death to his excitement about the Needham ban : and to `his knowledge that he (~.vitness) -`was -about to sani thia deed over to Dublin for registration. There were rumors of other for__;erie3, but `he knew of no other forge! deed than his own. Several of iMr. sNeedham s deeds had from time to time passed through his a handsjgo persons who had advanced money upon them, but he (witness)tha.d no, reason 1 .to believe that any one of them _;W&S not genuine, He did not -think anybody en.` t joyedthe deoea.sel s condence."

That was the o 11y in- dication in the entire story that could war- rant even a. thought of insanity; but this was overbalanced tremendously, in his esti- mation, by the other facts of the case. i With these suggsstions and instructions he ` left the verdict in the hands of the jury, and thanked them on behalf of himself and all concerned for their patient attention to the painful details of one of the saddest cases that had come under his attention for H many years. vri... 4...... ..9+m- a chart dnlihc-\rnti0n_ 2-ave many yeuns.

It was cold, the limbs rigid, the 3eyes gliztening, life-like; the face calm and placid, and there was a powerful odor of the essential oil of bitter almonds par- ceptible at the month. .There was no froth or anything toshow that the unfortunate gentleman had died of poison [except .the smell of it. He hatl made a post mortem ex- amination ot the body, and it had undergone little or no change. There were no marks of external violence, some post mortem con- geztion of the lungs, no valvular disease of the heart; a thickening was perceptible in the left" ventricle; the right auricle of the heart was distended `with bl nod, the left auricle empty; no odor of essential oil or almonds all over the body". The stomach containei-undigested food, and imbeddei in it numerous black particles perceptible `to the naked` eye. ' On examination they provei to be powdered opium, and they were stuck all over the mucous membrane, and so numerous as-_ not to be counted; The liver was hea1`.hy, the pupils of the eyes di- lated, the brain and membrane congested, but other wise `healthy and without any signs of inammation. It was quite possible the deceased had taken a strong narcotic as well as the essential oil of almonds, but the latter was the cause of death.
