". . . when we got home I found the prisoner there; he was in the breakfast-parlour downstairs, the front kitchen — he had caused a great disturbance in the house before I came home — I said to him, "What business have you here!" — he said, "I have all the business here, and I intend coming when I like" — I said, "You have annoyed me sufficiently, and I hope you will not do so now, I have removed into a new house, and I do not wish to disturb my neighbours by such a man as you; pray go, don't disgrace me" — he said he would not go, he should remain as long as he thought proper — I said I would send for a policeman — he threatened me with an oath, and said if I dared send for a policeman he would set the dog on me — he had a large Newfoundland dog with him, and he frightened me very much, and I allowed him to remain, thinking he would go when he thought proper, without any disturbance — I asked Mr. Fisk and Mr. Flower to remain in the house, as I was afraid of the prisoner, and they remained in the breakfast parlour — Mrs. White, Mary, my sister, and myself were there also — the prisoner remained there till daylight — he never left the house during that time — I left the room with Mr. Fisk, and went with him into the parlour above, leaving the prisoner below — I did not see him leave the room — when I came back again I found the prisoner there — that must have been between 1 and 2 o'clock — afterwards, about 4 o'clock, he went out of the room — I don't know where he went to, he followed Mrs. White — I remained down stain — Mr. Fisk and Mr. Flower were still there — it was quite daylight — the prisoner left his dog there — it was let out, and soon afterwards Mr. Fisk and Mr. Flower went away — after they were gone, the prisoner came down stairs — he said, "Where is my dog?" — I said, "I don't know" — he said, "They have taken my dog with them" — I said, "No, they would not do anything of the kind, if you think I have your dog, you can come and see, look over the house with he followed me upstairs to look over the house — the dog was not there me — I said, "You go home, and you will find your dog is at home, if not I know where my friends live, and I will go to them directly" — he went away, and never returned again — I never saw him afterwards till he was in custody."
