The COURT said he deemed the evidence was proper and important; it had been proved that a daguerreotype was found in a coat, and if the prosecution can prove that that coat belonged to young Watts, and that this is the daguerreotype this witness gave him, it will go far to connect the prisoner with the transaction on board that sloop. The Court thought the evidence not only eminently proper, but very material and important testimony. _Witness continued._—When I gave him the daguerreotype he put it in his coat pocket; I saw that coat since in the District Attorney’s office (coat produced in which Captain Weed found the daguerreotype); I think this is his coat and this the pocket he put it in; he then jumped into the cars (daguerreotype produced); this is the same one I gave him; I don’t remember any of the other clothes of Oliver but the coat. _Cross-examined._—The coat was shown me in the District Attorney’s office; they showed me one coat and asked me if it was Oliver’s, and I said not; they then showed me the other, and I said it was Oliver’s; I identify it from the yellow lining in the sleeves, and the cloth being worn off the button; it was on the sidewalk, right by the cars, I gave Oliver my daguerreotype. HARRIET ROBINSON (mother of the last witness)—My former husband’s name was Dickerson; I knew Oliver Watts for three or four years; he used to stay at my house when home from sea; he had not all his clothes when at my house last; he had a pair of pants which he took away with him; he wore on that Tuesday his best coat; I should suppose this (the coat in which Captain Weed found the daguerreotype) to be the coat; I know it from the lining, etc.; he said he gave $16 for it; the other I think was his every day coat. _Cross-examined._—Nothing material elicited. ABBEY HUBBARD deposed—My first husband’s name was Watts; I am the mother of Smith Watts; the last time I saw him was on the 7th of March; he started to go with Captain Burr to Virginia (identifies a portion of the clothes belonging to her son, Smith Watts); I patched this shirt myself; this bag has the initials of my present husband, Lorenzo Hubbard, on it; I put my son’s clothes in it that morning myself; I knew the shirts; I cut them myself, and had them sewed; he was very large, and could not get shirts to fit him; I cut them in the old fashioned way myself; I have had no tidings of him since, only that I suppose he was murdered. (Sensation in court.) _Cross-examined._—I reside at Islip; I am not any relation of Captain Burr’s family, but I was acquainted with him for fourteen or fifteen years. _Re-direct examination._—Witness exhibited further signs in stitches and patches, by which she positively identified her son Smith Watts’ shirt; the pantaloons have a new pocket, which I put in, as he had worn out the other one; all those things that I have identified my son took away with him in the bag which has my husband’s initials on it.
