Charles Eaton De IVdt, who is under remand, charged
with obtaining, by false and fraudulent pretences, from
Messrs. Garcia Rabet, wine merchants, Pudding-lane, a
large quantity of wine, was again placed at the bar
before Mr. Alderman Rose, who was sitting for the Lord
Mayor.
Mr. Chidley, the solicitor who instructed Mr. Sleigh for
the prosecution, said an arrangement had been made be-
tween him and Mr. Bard, who defen.ls the prisoner, for a
further adjournment, and he asked that the prisoner might
be remanded until Wednesday.
Mr. Miller said be was instructed to watch the case
upon behalf of a client of his, Mr. Stanuard, who was a
witness on the last occasion, and who then gave into the
hands of the prosecutors 42 warrants, which be had received
from the prisoner, but the public had been led to suppose
that Mr. Stanoard had declined to produce the other
twelve which had been asked for, and upon which he had
a claim. Mr. Staonard was now present, and was prepared
to produce the warrants. A bill in Chancery had been
filed against the prisoner, and his client had been made a
defendant or party with the prisoner, and the complainant
had published in that very bill a letter which Mr. Stasoard
had sent to Mr. Chidley immediately on seeing the adver-
tisement, stating that he was the holder of warrants simi-
lar to those described in the advertisement, and was pre-
pared to deliver them to a rightful claimant, showing that
Mr. Stannard was willing to hand over all the warrants to
which be had no claim.

Mr. Oke asked Mr. Miller if he wee willing to give up
the other twelve?

Mr. Miller said his client had a claim upon them, but he
would undertake to praliTa themwben required.

Mr. Alderman 114-e said Mr. Stannard lied better attend
on Wednesday, and the prisoner was again remanded.
