Husler—She was not drowned, my lord; I went thither and helped to pull off her clothes.

Jones—In what condition was her body?

Husler—Her body was very lank and thin, and no water appeared to be in it.

There was no water about her mouth and nose; there were bruises at the top of the collar-bone and upon both her ears.

Ann Pilkington saw the body, and gave the same evidence as to its general condition as the other witnesses.

Cowper—Had she any circle about her neck?

Pilkington—No, not that I did see.

Cowper—Pray, did you not make some deposition to that purpose that you know of?

Pilkington—Sir, I never did, and dare not do it.
