When did Mr. Blandy first take medicines by your order?--As soon as he could swallow, on Saturday night, the 10th August. Before that time he was under the care of Mr. Norton. [Sidenote: B. Norton] BENJAMIN NORTON, examined--I live at Henley; I remember being sent for to Mrs. Mounteney's, in Henley, on Thursday, the 8th August, in order to show me the powder. There was with her Susan Gunnell, the servant maid. She brought in a pan. I looked at it and endeavoured to take it out that I might give a better account of it, for as it lay it was not possible to see what it was; then I laid it on white paper and delivered it to Mrs. Mounteney to take care of till it dried. She kept it till Sunday morning, then I had it to show to Dr. Addington. I saw the doctor try it once at my house upon a red-hot poker, upon which I did imagine it was of the arsenic kind. Did you attend the deceased while he was ill?--I did. I went on the 6th of August. He told me he was ill, as he imagined, of a fit of the colic. He complained of a violent pain in his stomach, attended with great reachings, and swelled, and a great purging. I carried him physic, which he took on the Wednesday morning; he was then better. On the Thursday morning, as I was going, I met the maid. She told me he was not up, so I went about twelve. He was then with a client in the study. He told me the physic had done him a great deal of service, and desired more. I sent him some to take on Friday morning; I was not with him after Thursday.[9] Had you used to attend him?--I had for several years. The last illness he had before was in July, 1750. I used to attend him. Did you ever hear Miss Blandy talk of music?--I did. She said she had heard it in the house, and she feared something would happen in the family. She did not say anything particular, because I made very light of it. Did she say anything of apparitions?--She said Mr. Cranstoun saw her father's apparition one night. How long before his death was it that she talked about music?--It might be about three or four months before. Was the powder you delivered to Dr. Addington the self-same powder you received of Mrs. Mounteney?--It was the very same; it had not been out of my custody. Should you know it again?--I have some of the same now in my pocket. [He produces a paper sealed up with the Earl of Macclesfield's and Lord Cadogan's seals upon it.] This is some of the same that I delivered to Dr. Addington. Cross-examined--Who sent for you to the house?--I cannot tell that. When you came, did you see Miss Blandy?--I did. She and Mr. Blandy were both together. What conversation had you then?--I asked Mr. Blandy whether or no he had eaten anything that he thought disagreed with him? Miss Blandy made answer, and said her papa had had nothing that she knew of except some peas on the Saturday night before. Did you hear anything of water gruel?--I knew nothing of that till it was brought to me.
