the sheriff for contempt. At the end of December terin, 17IS, the courts adjourned to the fourth Tites- day in February, 1749, and ordered the clerk to make Capital Crimes and Executions .- The first case of hanging in this county was for horse-stealing, which at that time was a capital offense. Francis Pickering, aline Mason, aline Price, and Simon Hus- met at Cohansey Bridge, at the house of Isaac Smith, , sey, alias Anderson, both of whom were inhabitants of Maryland, and came here but a short time before, were arrested for stealing a horse and a mare belong- ing to Charles Davis, Owing to the insecurity of the all writs returnable at Cohansey Bridge. An election had been held by which the latter place had been se- Iceted as the county -- cat. At the February term they who kept a tavern on the west side of the river. Until 1752, when the first court-house was finished, they usually met at the Parvin and Cotting taverns. In August, 1759, one David Smith plead guilty to jail, although it had been built only three or four larceny, and was sentenced to " be whipt on the bare back 25 lashes." At the Angust term, 1752, they met at the court-house for the first time. December term, 1755, Elias Cotting, the clerk, presented a new commission to hold during good behavior. Hle died in H57, and at the December term of that year Daniel Elmer presented his commission as clerk. He died May 2, 1761, and Maskell Ewing presented his com- mission to succeed him on the 20th of the same month. At the Derember term, 1761, 1-aac Mills, Jr., of Stow Creek, had his tax remitted, " having been out in his Majesty's Service the present -cason." At the .August term, 1765, the record says the courts were " hohlen at Bridgeton," this being the first mention of that name, but it continned to be used after that. At the September teri, 1776, the date is simply the year, the year of the reign of the sovereign being dropped. During 1777 and 1778 the principal business was the prosecution of tho-e refusing to take the oath of alle- Fiance to the new State government, and of others for disaffection to the government, and some for reviling the same. Many of them were fined up to $100, and some were imprisoned for three months. In 1779-83 a number of those disabled in the war, and the widows of some who had died in the service, applied for half-pay, and it was granted by the court.
All crimes of a high grade coukl only be tried in the Court of Oyer and Terminer, which was held, previous to 17944, by a special commission author- izing a justice of the Supreme Court, who was named with the county judges of the pleas, and sometimes two or three justices of the peace, all of whom were also named to hold the court. When a person charged with a crime of the higher grade was ar- rested application was generally made to the Gov- ernor, and he then issued a special commission. By an act passed in November, 1791, the justices of the supreme Court and the judges of the respective courts of Common Pleas, or any three or more of them, of whom one of the justices of the Supreme Court should be one, were constituted Courts of Over and Terminer in each county, to sit in each county at such time as the Supreme Court should appoint. In 1792 an ast was passed requiring them to sit at the same the as the Circuit Court in each county, which then was twice a year.
years, the board of justice- and frecholders sent a special messenger to the chief justice of the State to induce him to solicit Governor Bernard to issue a special commission of Over and Terminer for their trial. The errand was a success, and on Aug. 22, 1,58, a special court was held in the court-house, pre- sided over by Samuel Nevill, one of the justices of the Supreme Court, and they were convicted and sen- teneed to be hung on September 18th. Hussey being a youth about twenty years old, and it appearing he had been led into it by Pickering. who had the char- acter of a notorious thief, the ju-tices of the county and many of the principal inhabitants petitioned the Governor for his pardon, and David Ogden, one of the justices of the peace, was sent to Perth Amboy with the petition. His errand was successful, and Hussey escaped the death penalty, but was im- prisoned about two months, and then released on the application of the justices and freeholders, who sent the sheriff to Somerset Court, probably to the chief justice, to get hi- discharge. Pickering was hung ou the day appointed, by Sheriff Maskell Ewing. The hanging took place on what was then a common, but is now comprised in the Presbyterian graveyard on Broad Street, near the northeast corner of the yard. .An oral account of it, which the late Daniel M. Woodruff; of Bridgeton, had from his mother, who was born in January, 1749, says that Pickering, who was a remarkably handsome man, had taken the horse for some purpose, and was within a mile of the place where it belonged and about to return it when arrested. However this may be, the extreme severity of the law was such that in 1709 the Legisla- ture passed an act reciting that the punishment of death, " which by the law as it now stands is directed to be inflicted upon every person indiscriminately convicted of home-stealing." had not answered the purpose intended, and enacting that thereafter the punishment for the first offense should be such cor- poreal or other punishment as the court should think fit, and for the second offense made it lawful to impose the death sentence as before, but even this harshness has long since passed away.
The next conviction for a capital offense was during the Revolution, upon a charge of highway robbery. A messenger was sent after Judge John Cleves

HISTORY OF CUMBERLAND COUNTY.
Symmes, who attended and held a special Court of square around the tree, and after the usual prelimi- Oyer and Terminer, and he was convicted by a jury. marie, the deluded mortal was launched into eternity amid the firing of musketry. The trees swarmed with men and boys as thick as blackbirds, and there w., a large turnout of the people from all parts of the county, as if it were a gala day."" The name of the prisoner is not now known. The party robbed was proved to be a Tory and a person of ill-repute, and the court recommended the prisoner for pardon, which was probably granted, as there is no record or tradition of his execution.
On Feb. 28, 1797, John Patterson, an Irishman, murdered Capt. Andrew Conrow, and attempted to kill two others of his crew, badly wounding them, on their vessel on Maurice River, between Dorchester and Leesburg. The cabin-boy escaped up the rig- ging, and thus saved his own life. and afterwards was the chief witness against Patterson. What induced this fiendish act is now unknown. On his arrest he passed hy the name of Robert Brown. A special term of the Oyer and Terminer was held in Septem- ber, 1797, and he was convicted, chiefly on the evi- dence of the cabin-boy. The trial took place in the Presbyterian Church on Broad Street, the court-house not being large enough to accommodate the people. The building was unplastered at that time, and it is related that "the beams above were crowded with men and boys eager to see the prisoner and hear the evidence against him. During the course of the trial, while the cabin-boy was giving in his testimony, Pat- terson, frenzied with anger, seized the lad by the throat, and seemingly endeavored to choke him to death. The aet created a fearful excitement, and it was with difficulty the people could be restrained from tearing Patterson to pieces."1 He was con- victed and sentenced to be hung, but hung himself the next morning with a silk handkerchief on the upper hinge of his cell door, thus cheating the gallows of the most deserving victim who ever faced that dreaded reality in this county.
At a court held June 7, 1799, before Isaae Smith, second justice of the Supreme Court, and Jonathan Ehner, Azariah Moore, Amos Westeott, John Mulford, and Eli Budd, judges of the pleas, the negro Joseph was tried for the murder of Peter Jackson, also a negro, for whom he worked. The crime was com- mitted near Page's Run, not far from Newport, and it is said that he was goaded to the act. This trial took place in the court-house, and the jury convicted him. Jle was sentenced to be hung on the 21st of the same month, and his body to be delivered to such surgeon as should apply for it, as the law authorized. The sentence was carried out by Sheriff George Bur- gin, on a int on the Roadstown road, just west of West Street. The lot was then uninclosed, and cov- ered with heavy timber, and it is said that an onk-tree was used for the gallows. " The condemned man was taken to the place of execution in an open cart, es- corted by the military, the band playing a dirge all the way there. The military were formed in a hollow

The next case of hanging was that of Rosan Keen, a mulatto girl about sixteen years old. She was em- played a a servant in the family of Enos Seeley, Esq., who about a year previous had been county clerk for a short time. Mr. and Mrs. Seeley were both taken sick, and in about ten days Mr. Seeley died, but Mrs. Seeley recovered. Suspicions were aroused when it was learned that the girl had obtained arsenic through a neighbor, and she was arrested. Mr. Seeley's body was taken up and the stomach sent to Philadelphia to be analyzed. After being in jail two or three weeks she confessed the crime. The arsenic wa- mixed in a lump of butter, and Mr. Seeley had ser- eral doses of it before he died. The motive seems to have been to possess some articles of dress or jewelry which she had seen Mrs. Seeley have. She was tried in September of the same year, Judge Daniel Elmer pre-iding, and was sentenced to be hung on November 3d. She was deficient in intellect, and there are grave doubts about the justness of her conviction. When sentenced she remained indifferent, although the judge and many of the spectators were in tears. The Bridge- ton Chronicle said at the time, "From what we have been able to ascertain in relation to the previou- character of this poor, ignorant, demented girl, we are fully persuaded that she is much more deserving a place in an insane asylum than some of those hom- icides who have recently been liberated from punish- ment on the ground of insanity." She was reprieved for a time on account of some efforts made to secure her a pardon, but was hung on April 26, 1844, in the jail-yard, by Sheriff Harris B. Mattison.
The next and last case of capital conviction was that of Charles T. Ogden and Washington Howard for the murder of Zadoc Damrell, a short distance above Shiloh, April 28, 1864. The wife of Ogden had left her husband in Gloucester County and gone off with Damrell. Ogden and Iloward hunted for them, and met them along the road, and Ogden as- saulted Damrell with a large pocket-knife, Howard holding him while it was done. He died frem the effect of the wounds in a few hours. The two were arrested, and convicted on June 2, 1864, Judge L. Q. C. Kimer presiding at the trial. They were sen- tenved to be hung on Inly 20th of that year, which sentence was duly carried into effect in the old jail- yard, by Sacrif" Charles L. Watson, on that date.
Judges of the Court of Common Fleas .-- Under the Constitution of 1776 judges of the Common Pleas and justice, of the peace were appointed by the Legi -- lature in joint meeting. No restriction as to the

GENERAL HISTORY.
number in each county was set out, and the varying party majorities in the Legislature kept the number at a high limit. Under the Constitution of 1844 the judges were appointed in the same way, but the number was limited to not more than five, and by an act passed in 1855 it was reduced to three. The ameudments to the Constitution adopted in 1575 gave the appointment of the judges to the Governor, with the advice and consent of the Senate. Since 1814 justices of the peace are elected in the wards and townships, not less than two or more than five in each.
