Details: WOUNDING WITH INTENT. John McDermott was indicted for wounding Stephen Matthews, at Wee Waa, on the 10th September, 1850, with intent to do bodily harm. It appeared from the evidence of Stephen Matthews, John Ketland, John Reading, and Thomas Rushton, that on that day Matthews, a carpenter, working for Mr. Loder at Wee Waa, met the prisoner and another man at the public-house there, and treated them to a glass each; the three men then left the inn together, and went to Mr. Loder s station; there they had some rum in a hut, seven or eight men drinking among them a pint of rum; the prisoner, who was not drunk, but under the influence of liquor, drew his knife, and flourishing it, swore he d rip up any man who came near him; he got close to Matthews and told him he d drive that into him, and then struck him with the knife in the breast, the knife entering still stopped by the handle; Matthews bled greatly, and going into another room where prisoner had gone, he asked prisoner what he did that for, telling him he had killed him; prisoner said, - Well, if I have begun it I ll finish it, and he seized a fire-peel and knocked down Matthews with it, striking him on the back of the neck, and he struck him a second blow with the peel. Matthews and the lad Ketland said that no words or quarrel of any kind preceded the attack by the prisoner, but Reading said that he heard prisoner say that he was the flash cock- man, and heard Matthews say that prisoner was no flash man, to pull out a knife; some minutes elapsed after this, Reading said, when as Matthews was talking to another man, prisoner went up to him and stabbed him. Matthews said he still suffered from the effects of the stab, the sear of which lie showed. Constable Rushton deposed that bearing the uproar at the hut, he took another constable with him and went to the place; he found prisoner still in the hut, flourishing the knife produced, and swearing he d rip up any man that came at him, several persons being then in an inner room; witness seized the prisoner s hand, and threw him down, and the other constable took the knife from him; the men inside then rushed out; the prisoner had been drinking, but could walk and talk well. Rushton de- scribed the state he found Matthews in, and produced Matthews s bloody shirt; prisoner told witness, after he was apprehended, that he should be hanged, but he did not care, he d have ripped up the guts of any one of them that had come out of the room. In defence, prisoner simply said he was drunk, and didnt know what he was doing. The jury returned a verdict of guilty. The prisoner was sentenced to be worked seven years on the roads, the first two years in irons.
