Immigrant arrivals, Skelton; Joseph 42, Frances 34, Alice 5, Robert 4, Louisa 3, Joseph 7/12 The good ship St Leonards arrived in harbour yesterday morning shortly after 11 o'clock from London, after a very good passage of 90 days from land to land, She brings Government immigrants, and 18 saloon and second-class passengers The ship is a fine powerful iron vessel of 999 tons, and has the appearance of being able to give a very good account of herself under canvas. The saloon ia a most spacious and handsomely fitted one, whilst her accommodation for the immigrants is most excellent. The St. Leonaids is under the command of our old friend Captain C. Potherbridge, who for many years traded between this port and London in command of the ship Countess of Kintore. The ship, about two hours after rounding the North Head, was boarded by Dr. Philson, Health Officer, and Major Green, Immigration Officer. These gentlemen, with Captain Burgess, chief Harbour-master (who is also a member of the Health Board), inspected the ship), and expressed themselves as highly pleased with the very excellent appearance of the accommodation provided for the immigrants. The passengers were also examined by Dr. Philson, and all found to be in excellent health. Directly the anchor was dropped off the Queen street Wharf, the whole of the passengers assembled in the waist of the ship, and gave three cheers for Captain Petherbridge and his officeis. A very flattering testimonial was also presented to the captain, and to Dr. Goode, the medical officer in charge. The immigiants will be landed at 10 o'clock this morning. The ship which comes consigned to Messrs Owen and Graham will be berthed at the Queens street Wharf on Monday next to discharge her cargo. We are indebted to the captain for the follow report of his passage: - The St. Leonards left Gravesend the evening of the 19th of June, and brought it up the Nore for the night the following day got into the Downs and came to anchor, left again on the 21st June, with the wind from the west-south-west, which continued all the way down Channel, and with very thick fog most of the time; landed her pilot in Torbay on the 23th, and took her departure from the Eddystone at 9;30 p m the same day, with the wind at north west, light.

W on the 13th on the 20th, At 3.30 p.m Amelia Jones, an infant of two months old, died, (The attention of the medical officer at Gravesend was called to the child's delicate state before the ship was cleared ) Crossed the equator on the morning of the 24th of July, in longitude 25 west, with a fine south-east trade wind, which continued good until the 31st, when we lost them in latitude 22 S., longitude 33 W.

INQUEST AT THE HOSPITAL. An inquest was held at the Provincial Hospital at 2 p.m. yesterday, on the body of Robert Skelton, a boy, who died from injuries caused by a fall from a horse. The inquiry was held before Dr. C. F. Goldsbro', coroner, and a jury of 13, of whom Mr. John Wilton was chosen forman. The jury having viewed the body, the following evidence was laid before them Charless Tothnul, mining agent, deposed that on Monday morning last he was standing on the road near his house at Mount Eden, waiting for the newspaper to come. It was between 8 and '9 o'clock. He heard a horse that was coming along the road, stop suddenly, and then there was a cry. He looked round and saw a boy Iying on the road close to the horse's fore feat. Witness picked him up, and saw that his left aim was broken. Witness took the boy to his mother's house. Deceased seemed to be quite sensible, and was crying out "O, my poor arm." Witness took him into the house, and, after placing him on a couch and assisting to remove his coat, went for Dr. Stockwell. Dr. Stockwell was at home, and promised to attend immediately. Witness did not ask the boy how the accident occurred. William Stockwell, duly qualified medical practitioner, deposed that he was called to see the deceased at 9 a.m. on Monday. Deceased was in his father's house at Epsom, lying down, but quite conscious. He did not complain of pain till witness moved the broken arm. Witness took some wet rags from the arm, and found the bone protruding just above the elbow on the outside of the arm. Nearly two inches of tbe bone were exposed. There did not appear to have been much loss of blood. After making further examination, witness recommended that deceased should be taken to the Hospital, as Skelton's house was not a suitable place for him to remain in. Witness saw doceased the following morning. He was couscous, and seemed to be very well under the circumstances.-Thomas Moore Philson, M.D., deposed that the deceased, aged 81/2 years, was brought to the Hospital by Dr. Stockwell in his buggy, at 10 a.m. on Monday. The witness then described tbe injuries which the deceased suffered from. There did not appear to have been much hemorrhage. Witness, after consultation with Dr. Stockwell, decided not to amputate the arm, but to endeavour to re-set it. Deceased was put under chloroferm while the operation was performed. Deceased passed a good night, and no hemorrhage took place. On being awakened he did not complain of pain; he took nourishment, and appeared to be progressing favourably. Between 12 and 1 p.m. he was suddenly siezed with a convulsive fit, the right side of the body being violently agitated. He frothed at the mouth, ami bit his tongue, which protruded. He wae attended to, but the fits continued to occur at intervals up to 4 30 p.m., when he expired. Post mortum examination was made 18 hours after death. The appearance of the brain was sufficient to account for the fatal convusions Joseph Skelton father of deceased, deposed that deceased told him he was going past. Mr.Tothill's on the horse, when Mr. Tothill's white hat caused the horse to shy and throw him over its head. The horse is a quiet one, and deceased was accustomed to ride it. At the time of the accident deceased was taking the horse to water and driving along some cows.- The jury, after a short consultation, returned a verdit of Accidental death. |

Joseph Skelton v. Albert Smith, claim, £3, damages.
Mr Coleman for plaintiff, Mr Hesketh for defendant.
The parties in this case were neighbours at Remuera, and the cause of action was
the impounding of cattle. Sarah Ann Treney remembered the evening of the
1st of November. She saw seven head of cattle near her father's house,
in the ti-tree. Alice Skelton was in charge of the cows. It was just before milking time. They were on the allotment by Remuera Road. Mr Smith, defendant, rode up on horseback, and drove the cows onto the road, and trotted them off to the pound. She spoke to him of the wrongful act, when he said it was not her business, and if she interfered he would take her to a court of law. He galloped after the cows. She sent her brother to apprise Mr Skelton of what Mr Smith had done. Cross-examined by Mr Hesketh. Francis Mary Treney corroborated her sister's statement. Joseph Skelton deposed that he was a dairyman at Remuera, and on the Ist November Mr Smith told him he should take his cows. He told him that he dared not take them from the allotment. The cattle were lying down at some distance from the road. His daughter Alice was in charge of the cows. He was informed that Mr Smith had driven the cattle away, and looking out, he saw him trotting them to the pound. He spoke to Smith about his conduct, when he said "You must talk to Mr Wilson", the chairman of the board He paid half-a-crown a head (I7s 6d) and liberate the cows. He estimated his loss at £3 Cross examined by Mr Hesketh. |

Neighbours' Quarrels.— The Court resumed at 2 o'clock for the further hearing
of the assault cases at Remuera, between a milkman named Joseph Skelton,
Frances Skelton (his wife), and Alice Skelton (his daughter), who were charged,
in various ways, with assaulting Reuben Scarborough, of the same district, and
with rescuing cattle on the way to the pound. There were present in the Court a number of the residents of Remuera, who took a lively interest in the feud between the litigants. Mr. Samuel Hesketh appeared for the plaintiif; Mr. Laishley for defendant, and Mr, Thorn for defendant's wife and daughter. The evidence of Frances Skelton was further continued from the preceding day, Alice Skelton, Philip Otto, and Thomas Woulds also gave evidence for the defence. This closed the case. The magistrates retired to consult, and on returning into Court announced their decision as follows That the Bench was of opinion a breach of the peace had been committed by Skelton, and, therefore, fined him 30s and costs, or a month's imprisonment, also to find sureties to keep the peace for six months—himself in £30, and two others in a like amount; Francos Skelton, defendant's wife, to find sureties in £30 for a like period. Alice Skelton, defendant's daughter, to be discharged. The fine had been made light, owing to the heavy costs in the case, but if a similar breach of the peace occurred again the defendants would bo subjected to the full penalties of the law. Mr. Thorn applied for costs on behalf of Alice Skelton. The application was opposed by Mr Hesketh, but the Bench allowed one guinea for counsel's fee. Mr. Laishlov applied for a decision as to the charge of rescuing the cattle; The Bench stated that its decision practically amounted to a Dismissal of the case without costs. |
