Instead of rousing the house, Mr. Cheape crept to an empty bedroom near, and lay for several hours in torture, till the servants of the Club found him in the morning: he died a few hours afterwards.

Shot at Fulwood-barracks, Preston, by a private soldier, named Patrick M'Cafferay, of the 32nd Regt., Lieut.-Col. Hugh Denis Crofton, the Commandant, and Capt. John Hanham, the Adjutant of the 11th depôt battalion. The soldier, for some neglect of duty, which had been observed by the Adjutant, had been that morning sentenced to fourteen days' confinement to the barracks. About eleven o'clock Col. Crofton and Capt. Hanham were crossing the barrack-square in company, when the report of fire-arms was heard, and the two officers fell wounded. Col. Crofton was so severely hurt that he had to be helped to his quarters, but Capt. Hanham was able to walk without aid. It appeared in evidence at the inquest, that M'Cafferay, after loading his rifle, watched from his own room the approach of the two officers across the square, and when they were opposite to his quarters, and about sixty yards distant, he went into a lobby, where he was seen to kneel, take a deliberate aim, and fire at the officers. Medical aid being procured, it was found that the ball had first struck Col. Crofton on his left side, passed through the left lung, and gone out at his right side. It had then struck Capt. Hanham on the upper part of the left arm, and lodged near the spine. The ball was extracted about an hour afterwards. Col. Crofton died of his injuries on the following

night, and Capt. Hanham the morning after. M'Cafferay, when taken into custody, said that he had not intended to hit Col. Crofton, implying, no doubt, that he had been desirous of shooting Capt. Hanham. Both of the deceased officers were heirs to baronetcies. Col. Crofton, who was 47 years of age, was the eldest son and heir of Sir Morgan George Crofton, bart., of Mohill-house, co. Leitrim, a branch of the house of Crofton, Baron Crofton, in the Irish peerage. He had served in the army for more than twentysix years-the whole, with the exception of three years, active service. At the battle of the Alma he commanded the 20th Regt., and at the battle of Inkermann, where he was severely wounded and had a horse shot under him, he commanded one wing of the British army. For these services he had been honourably mentioned in the despatches of the Commander-in-Chief, and, in addition to a medal and three clasps, had been decorated with the order of the Legion of Honour, and by the Sultan with the order of the Medjidie. He married, in 1849, the Hon. Georgiana Lucy, cousin of the present Lord de Blaquiere, by whom he leaves a family of three children, the eldest of whom is in the eighth year of his age.

Capt. Hanham, aged 38, was the third son of the late Rev. Sir James Hanham, bart., Dean'scourt, Dorsetshire, and brother and heir-presumptive to the present baronet, Sir William Hanham. He entered the army in 1843, took part in the Sutlej campaign of 1845-6, was wounded at the battle of Moodkee, and was also present at the battles of Ferozeshah and Sobraon. For these services he had received a medal and clasps. The appointment of adjutant of the 11th depôt battalion was bestowed on him in October, 1856. He leaves a wife and four children.
