Thu 13 Jul 1854. Page 3. SUPREME COURT, LAUNCESTON. SUPREME COURT, LAUNCESTON - (Before Mr. Justice Horne.) Thursday, July 6, 1854. Thomas Hall was charged with cutting and maiming his wife, Jane Hall, with intent to murder her. Other counts charged him with intent to do grievous bodily harm, and with common assaults. The prisoner was a store-keeper at Table Cape ; he went home intoxicated on the night of the 14th November, and, in a fit of jealousy, savagely assaulted his wife with a gun barrel. The defence made by Mr. Rocher, on behalf of the prisoner, dealt largely in insinuations as to the unfaithfulness of Hall's wife but no witnesses were called. The prisoner bitterly complained that his counsel had not done his duty, for evidence of his wife's adultery had been suppressed. He was ultimately convicted on the second count of the indictment. 1854 - Husband found guilty and executed at Launceston 28 July 1854.
