Another sensation, probably- fatL. final one, was sprung upon' vs&. public on Wednesday afternoon by the Attorney-General (Mr Want) producing a confession made by Dean. In this Dean admits that he was guilty of perjury, and that he did . attempt to kill his wife. He states that he obtained both arsenic and strychnine from the chemist Smith, who, Dean says, withheld his (Dean's) guilt at Meagher's instigation. Subsequently, Dean continues, he confessed to Meagher in the corridor of the condemned cell. He adds that no one except Meagher and Green (clerk to Crick and Meagher) knew of the confession.
