THE FELL CASE.

[To the Editor of the Thames Stab,]

Sir,—There is a story going the rounds (like many other false ones) that I have forjvon Mrs Thompson for what she has done to my darling find loving wife and d ar little ones, who I think more of th n my life. Mr Editor, what would the public sayofine,andaboyeall, what would myde^r wife say, who is suffering the most intense a: j.ony at the present time in being parted from her dear little ones ? Think of it, Mrs Thompson has ceused my dear children to hi taken from their mother, and cast on to the world like two little orphans, no one to care for them but strangers. i\; r>, Mr Editor, I caonot forgive the Thompsons for what they have done, and what may yet come. My dear wife hse been confined of a little girl, and taken back to prison net of her bed before she was well, and the baby is fearfully afflicted through the seutence that was passed on my poor wife. The dear little one cannot live—it has not grown eince the sentence was passed—it is only a liitle doll, and, Mr Editor, if anything happens to my wife or the child, I will hold _/lrs Thompson guilty. Leb Mrs Thompson iook at the 21st chapter of Exodus and the 22nd and fallowing versep, and study them. There are several other places that I could mention. Lot her ask herself could I have the hear; to forgive her for what she has dona when 1 ihink of the painful meeting ray wife had with her dear children od Thursday las', and the trouble that we have gone through previous to this cast? Regarding the accident to my hand, which my dear wife— [God bless her—was blamed for doing, I am phased to say that ray poor wife is innocentj and of that, I cau swear before my Maker, DnriDg the 19 weeks previous to the case I never earned one penny and was starving, the only assistance being a little bit of >ewing that my dear wife got to do, which helped to keep things gem-:. My poor wife's brother, Hany Thompson, and his wife knew how we were siuated, aDd ntver came near or asked whether they could do anything to help us Now, Mr Editor, can I forgive them for what they have done. I will answer for my darling vife and myself, and say " no, not this side of the grave.'' Mr Editor, lam nuw left wi bout a helpmate, my hand is crippled, and I have two dear little children so provide for. One is 2 years and 7 months, and the other is a year snd 6 months. I have not a penny lo help me, and I have to seek expert medical advice b^ore I can do anything with my hand. Thsnkirg you, Mr Editor, in anticipation. —1 am, &c. Herbert Fell.
