Bonds. value 1,200 f., the property of Mr. Joseph Tucker, of
No. 10, fiercules-chambsrs, Thmedneedlastreet, with West
to defraud Lim of the mate.
. _

Mr. Mullen. said —" I now appear on behalf of numerous
members of the Stock Exchange, who have been defrauded
by the prisoner, who is also a member of that body. I shall
being forward snidest)* which will clearly prove that the pri-
soner, on the 15th of Oot., purchased Confederate and other
hoods to the value of about 10,00 W., for which he paid in
crossed cheques, oe the understanding that such cheques
would be paid on presentation. 1 will also show that at that
time the balance at the prisrer's beakers did not 'zooid the
sum of 741., and that during the day no money was paid
is to the prisoner's credit, although cheques to the *resat
of nearly 10,0001. were preesiated and duboooured. I will
also, sir, bring forward evideoas to prove that the prisoner
at the same time introduced his clerk, a Mr. Grantham, to
the cealtier of the Beak of Loudon, when an account was
opened in his same, and cheques to the amount of 1,467/,
6s. 2.1. paid in to his credit, of which sum a balance of
1,0481. sow remained. After this circular 'iota for 300/.
were taken out in the same of Kelly at the London arid
Westminster Bank, and the notes paid into that bank would
be elearlr traced to the prisoner, being a portion which he
had mewed in payment of one of Cheatham's cheques. To
show the false prethaos, it will only be neceseary to prove
that at the tin.. the prisoner gave the crossed cheques for the
hoods he had no (nods at his beak to meet them, sad had, in
fact, no intention of paying them, es be no sootier gave
the cheques than he absconded, had his bead shaved, also
his whiskers taken off, and was only apprehended through
the ezertioos of the stork-broken, who, meting ander the
dries of Mr. Hamilton, the inspector of the City detective
force, distributed themselves among the different metropo-
lithe railway station., and by those means apprehended the
prisoner whilst be was endeavouring to rumps in disguise to
the Continent. On being taken he returned certain of the
hoods which had bees distributed amongst his creditors ; but
so far from the prisoner's statement on hie previous exami-
intim) being the truth, that he would not be a defaulter to
more than 30OL, he sou • defaulter to over 3,0004 On
proving these faits, sir, I shall ask yoa to commit the psi-
scoot foe
