William Phillips sworn states - I live at Malpass near

Newport - I know the Prisoner Aust - he is a Gardener living in the

Parish where I live - I employed him last Summer as a Gardener

occasionally - In consequence of something I heard I asked him

was he a Chartist, what made him a Chartist - I asked him so

knowing him to be well off - he said it was time for something to be

done as the great men had had it in their hands long enough - I

said to him I hear Aust they are about to pull Mr Prothero's house down

and Mr Blewitts or otherwise to turn Mr Prothero's house into a Poor house

- he said I hope I shall live to see it - I got in a bad way with him

and walked away - he never denied he was a Chartist - I have not

employed him since - this was just before Vincent was taken, he left

my work to go to a meeting - it was in consequence of his leaving my

work to go to the meeting I spoke to him - it was a Chartist meeting at

Newport - I don't know whether he told me that the Chartists did not

want to destroy property - I don't remember his saying so
