POLICE COURT.
Adelaide: Friday, February 25.
[Before Mr. S^Beddome, P.M.]
Mary Cox, wife or George Cox, of Norwood,
brickmaker, was charged, on remand, with
maliciously wounding Mary King, wife of John
King, on February 11. Mr. Smith for. the
defence. On a former occasion the evidence
given was to the effect that a dog belonging to
informant had gone upon defendant's roof, when
she (defendant) came out and struck the dog
with a line-prop. On being remonstrated with
she took a log and hit informant on the head,
injuring her severely. Mrs. King said that she
had been obliged to go to the Hospital again on
the previous day, when the wound on her head
had broken out, and she had lost much blood,
as the doctors had much difficulty in staying the
flow. Witness was cross-examined by Mr. Smith,
but her evidence remained unshaken. Defendant
was committed to the Supreme Court for trial,
Mr. Beddome informing her that as soon as he
saw that Mrs. King was out of danger he
would admit her to bail.
