DROMORE TRAGEDY. ACCUSED’S SUDDEN VIOLENCE IN COURT. Ashburton, Last Night. Thomas Jamieson, the afflicted man charged with the murder of the four months’ child of his sister at Dromore, was before the Magistrate for trial in conjunction with the inquest.

During the trial, accusecL was quite listless, but suddenly leaned over the dock and punched a constable’s head.
