The son confirmed his father's account, but when Daniel Nugent

was called he swore positively that just before the fall of his

companion, he saw a boat, with a single man in it, at a short

distance from the shore; and as far as he could judge by the

light of a few stars, it was the same boat in which I had just

landed.

A woman deposed that she lived near the beach and was standing at

the door of her cottage, waiting for the return of the fishermen,

about an hour before she heard of the discovery of the body, when

she saw a boat with only one man in it push off from that part of

the shore where the corpse was afterwards found.

Another woman confirmed the account of the fishermen having

brought the body into her house; it was not cold. They put it

into a bed and rubbed it, and Daniel went to the town for an

apothecary, but life was quite gone.
