Summary Remarks  Continuation of the Proceedings at the late session of Oyer and Terminer - James Fox, a Private in the 2nd Regiment of European Infantry was put to the Bar, charged with the murder of a Naigue of Sepoys - the fact was clearly proved, and the prisoner could only plead excessive intoxication in his defence. The Adjutant of the Regiment gave him an excellent character - the Jury found him Guilty - but wished the court to advert to the evidence given by his Officer in his favour - he has we understand since been respited and his sentence is to be transmitted to England.
