Attempt to Poison a Family.--On Saturday, Jane Riley, domestic servant to Mrs. Knotman, Plumtree Street, Nottingham, was brought before Mr. Close and Mr. Heymann, borough magistrates, on a charge of attempting to poison her mistress and four children. It appears that a few days previously the prisoner had prepared some gruel for the children. Mrs. Knotman, perceiving that it was of an unusual colour, tasted it, and became ill in consequence. Her suspicions were then aroused, and she questioned the prisoner as to what she had put in the gruel; and after some hesitation she acknowledged that she had put some copperas into it. Mrs. Knotman asked her for what reason she had done so, as she had been previously told that the copperas was poison. Prisoner said she was quite sure she did not wish any of them to die, but could not explain why she mixed the poison in the gruel. The prisoner was remanded.
