IIABT W. BRADBURY AND ANOTHER.—LIBEL.—AR
As ACTION AGAINST .. Pesten."
This was an artisan brought by Mosey Mart to recover
damages from Messrs. Brialbury and Evans, the proprie tors
of Pands, for a libel published so that humorous periodical.
Mr. E. Janes, Q,C., and Mr. hiosill, were for the plain-
tiff; anal Mr. M. Chambers, td.C., anal Mr. Hawkins, wets
fur the defendants.
There were three counts in the declaration, the first
charging the publication of a specific libel, 01 which the de-
fendants pleaded that they had made the publication with-
Mit malice, anal had subsequently published au apology, aud
had paid 51. into court as damage.. The other too counts
eh:trio-al the defendants with publishing au ironical carica-
ture of the plaintiff, and that the apology was not bona fide,
but that it was in reality • continuation of the libel. To
both theta could. the atofindans pleaded not guilty.
The present action arse out of these eirciamstauere. The
plaintiff, who is of the Jewish twrouasion, lead been taken
into custody for inciting a young man, named Newbold, to
rob Iii. employer, and it will he reeollected that about the
same p+riael another Jew, named Barnett, was charged
with a similar faience. Fran the trial of the plaintiff; it
turned out that Newland had told a great many lies upon
the matter, said as hi+ evidence was not comrade:send in any
manner, the jury aequittall him. The other man, Barnett,
huerever, wa. conekteal, and he w
ande d to leo trans-
ported fur burn, o ware. It appe that booboo the trial
sane comments bad ho n made upon the conduct of the
plaintiff its Pan,h, anal it was for those comment: that the
present action was brought. The defendant., it app. and,
subs equently published an apology, and in the same number
there was a humoroate caricature representing a Jew old
cluthesman dealing with a little boy outside a paenahroker's
shop, and it was contended that the defendant. had made
an ironical apology, and published a malicious carica-
ture with the intention of still further injuring the
plaintiff.
Mr. Chambeta, in addressing the jury for the defendente,
said that, although fads A had now been in existence a
great many years and had been read with amusement and
delight by million+ during that period, this was the first
time the proprietor-'of this talent--al and clever publieation
had ever been charged with publishing a malicious libel.
They had capered. the follies anal vices of the day, and
, had even invaded the domeotie peace of Mr. and lies.
Caudle it was true, but no one had ever yet imputed
to them a desire to do more than expose, in a witty
and funny manner, those vices and follies. No class
of the community, from the bight-at to the lowest, had I
ceeapeal, when the cinaimstances justified it, the attack of
the witty pens of the writers in I'manki and he had no
doubt that Laming his own profession, at all evens, many
gentlemen had winced a little at the adventure of Mr .
Brillrts. (Muth laughter.) The unly object they had in
view was to a-Ilssle folly and vier ; and he contended that
although in the present inetanee the strict limits of the law
might have been exesoltol, yet that the injure, under the
eistunstanees, must have been of the nest trifling IIIIICTill-
Ti001, anal was amply compensated by the amount that had
been paid into court. With roped to the two latter counts,
he contended that the caricature did not apply to the plain-
tiff but to the other man, Barnett : and with regard to the
apelogy, ha' submitted that although written in the hums
r041. style appropriate to reach, yet that it was really and
truly an apollety ; anal that upon neither of thesecounts
was the plaintiff entitled to daMaBCA.
1 Mr. Baron Parke basing summed up the case, the jury,
after deliberating for some time, returned a verdict for the
plaintiff —Damage% 101., in addition to the 61. paid into
court.

knowing them to have been stolen. Mr. Johnson con-
duits' the prosecution. None of the prisoners were de-
fended by counsel.
Mr. Johnson, in opening the case to the jury, said it was
one which had attracted a good deal of attention, not only
in this county hut n the kingdom, on account of the cir-
cumstances sauna clod with it, anal the daring character of
the offence. It we a most fearful thing to see, as would
he made clearly to appear by the evidence, a desperate
gang of persons banded together to commit the most
oh swoon. crimes, moil who, he was afraid, would not even
have stopped at the shedding of blood if they had met with
any opposition to their proceedings. The cu.se would also
exhibit a system of organisation among the parties, •
knowledge of the face of the country, and of the habits of
persons living in lonely positions, anal a rapidityof commu-
nication by the different member. of the gang which was
really mist surprising and alarming. The learned counsel
then proceeded to narrate the facts of the ease, and the fol-
lowing evidence was 041111UCA11.
Jame. Hamilton, who was brought from the gaol in eta-
tody,eaid: I lived at Christmas last moon Woking Common,
in Surrey. I knew all the prisoners at that tame except
Carter. Just before Christmas, Ilillyer was at me house,
and he went away to a place (-allot Shutter's Mill, in
Survey, to fetch Morgan, and I expected a man named
John Isaacs to come to my house from Reading. II illyer
anal Morgan dial not come back sib was agreed, but Isaacs
dial e lllll e, anal on the Monday after Christmas-day we
two started to go to Edenbridge, where we expected
to meet some other men. We were to meet at
• barn near that town, which was about thirty
mile% from Woking. During the night we fall
in with Janie anal John Smith near Betebworth, and tha y
agreed to owrompaatv us OM the errand we were going. We
del not find either Brooks or Carter at the barn, but soon
afterwards I saw Brooks, anal he took us to a back lane,
where we found 'Morgan anal Bilker. Elizabeth Oilier
was also tbs., anal she land achild with her. We remained
in the learn till the a Wale of the day. This was the 31st
December. While I sas in the burn I saw two pistols, one
large and the other small. They were both loaded with
powder and piece, of lead, which were made fiat by the
teeth. It was theta arranged that some of the party should
go that night mod rob a house in the neighbourhood, anal
Morgan, lliliyer, Carter, John Smith, and IsaAC1. went
away fur that purpose. We went away from that place
eight or nine mile*, and the others were son meet us at a Wen
that night, but they did not route. The next morning
we found the five men who had gone away in •ii
wood, sitting round • fire, anal I sow a plumeake
anal& bottle of wine, and Broalus said that they had broken
open a public-house at Old Pie-corner. Ile also said there
WAS another rolthery to be 110111.1 that night, and we we-re
all to meet at Crawl, Tough Forest about 3 or 4 o'clock that
day. We dial all ms t again in the forest, anal we then all
prepared maths, and it was stated that at night we were to
go and rob a lady's hosts.. Morgan wore aredmask,Hillyer's
was black, anal the other men all beton white masks.V1 hen
all the preparations had been made, Isaacs. Carter, and
turielf were sent on to kook about if the place were clear.
NBA larneumlie house is about eight miles from the forest,
and we laid up when we got there, and it was arranged
that when we saw all the light,. out, we were to go buck
and join the other men. We did so, and we all got to the
Mutes again between 2 anal 3 o'clock is the morning. We
went into • little ditch by the side of the plan-
tation, anal there we took off our coats, waistcoats,
and shoes, and put on our masks, anal James Smith went a
little way along the road, to see if all was quiet. When I
got up to the house I found that the others had forted open
the dairy window. awl we then all went into the kitchen,
where some of the men put on coats that they found there.
I put on • coat and a woman's white apron, and Carter and
Brooks each put ern • female's bonnet which they found
the-re. We all had our masks on. There were two pairs
of stairs leading to the upper apartments. Isaacs, Brooks,
John Smith, and me went up oue of the staircases and the
other prisoners went up the second one. We immediate)]
burst anti one of the bedrooms, and I saw two ladies. I
saw only one first, but afterwards I saw two. We all had
bludgeons in our timid'. I don't know which of the party
had the patois. John Smith gave me • candle to hold, and
he then asked one of the ladies to give him the keys of the
drawers that were in the room, saying at the same
time that he was come after money, and money he would
have. The lade then handed him her keys, ant( he west to
the drawers anal some be unlocked, and some he burst open,
and I saw him take up • pocket-hook with a good many
notes in it. The lady told hint that the pocket-book con-
tained bank notes, anal it was all the money she had in the
lions. The prisoner Isaacs then asked for her watch, and
she pointed to the side of the room, and said it was there,
and Isaacs said it was not, and she told him that if it was
not some of his companions must have taken it. Isaac
then gave me the pocket-book, and he asked the lady where
the silver plate was. She re-plied that it was in the pantry,
and I was then lett to gaged the room while the others
went down to get the plate. I soon afterwards heard another
room burst open and a lady scream out, " Oh dear, oh dear,
is that you, Wliii.111I l " I called out, "Yes, ma'am—it is
William, there is nothing the matter." The moment
I said this, Carter presented Ileistol at me, and
was about to tire. when I myself known
to him, and he desisted. I then heard the lad
say in the room. •• There is 251. and a crooked sixpence."
The other men thencontimied to rummage about the house'
and I heard the lady threatened with violence if she made
any noise. We then left the house, taking with us some
betels, cheese, wine, bread, and other articles of food, and
lail Iran quautity of property. We had taken • gun
cal from the house. but we threw them both away
when we bad got a short distance. We all proceeded to a
weed near Crowborough Common, and about a mile from

of "Whitworth r.f/augnin" (Mylne 4c Craig, p. 337). Now,
nothing could he clearer than that the alleged trawl had
not lain made out by the evidence. Hamilton and Brown
he had shown to Ice mad...eery tug of credit; and in scanning
the retina • .4 ;Ohl nits, whether by pnetestants or catho-
lic., his lordship would act in an impartial spirit. It
was said nn the other side that the influence of the
priest had I, n exertiod to present the postponement
of the tratioaction on the Thursday. That influence turned
out to be a no re sic:go-then male with the legitimate object
of preventing the earitrment of a second interview. The
suggestion had prt sailed, and it had INTII shown that the
hesitat.un reins. 4 by M Carri had not proceeded from any
champs of purpose, but only from fear of Is ing too wink to
proceed. The will, it appeared, did not mutant a residuary
clause, thus leayisio the 1,500 francs posesool by the tee-
tabor in France untlispowol of. It was infernal from this'
that on instructions for the preparatinn of a will had been I
given by Cara. It was said that the priest and Cooke did
sot know sef also existence of this property, and that if they
had taken inotructiono fur a will, it was unlikely that Carri
would not have mentioned it. Their own Wirnevi, Hamilton,
hod dilatant to %tan:taint made on the Wednesday by the
testator that such instructi .. as had been given. The will
had leo•n as coolingly pnonnol, and as Mr. Cooke knew
nothing of the 1,sosa franc+ no mention wits mad ,of them
is the will. It was enacted ley the New Wills Art, I Vie.,
e. 2fi, that a residuary clause in a will should hate the effect
of owning ercrythiug over which the testator has an abso-
lute power of diapnoition. It was doubtful, therefore,
whether such a elatike would not amount to an exceution of
the power ite the deed. This sittlitantly aecountiol for the
omission tel such a clause in the will. It lied liton objected
ogainat the giosillaith of the. transaction : first, that the power
of revocation in the deed woe not unqualified, but was to be
miereised ley deed only, and not ley sill ; seeondly, that no
refennec to the damsel was made by the will ; and thinlly,
that the also marlin Wee,. Laken sway by Cooke. All them
objectiom might easily be 111111,11•TVII ; fur it was a question
whether the re se rvation in a voluntary settlement of • life
interest to the senior, and a poorer of revocation by will,
did not make the shed testamentary, and sosubjeet the gift
to legal y duty. Noticing such a Will in a will, afterwards
made. wow i (VI Lunt,' have that effect. As to taking the
documents away, this was nothing more than a prudent
precaution to as oiel any glaciation as to the deed being merely
an escrow. 1 es.tsioig a voluntary 'settlement in the hands
of she settler had frequently given rise to that question.
Ills lawlship said he could MA' no impropriety in an at•
tempt to avoid Ow operation of the stamp 'was. If a man

retoipt stainiutomient to take 41. 1141. in payment of
the debt ? To hay that such a tranoaction was immoral was I
men. casuistry.
Mr. Bolt said that as to the pencil inotrnetions for the
will, and the rough draft then of, these it appeared hod
hr. 11 hot in the chandlers of Mr. Cooke ; and their non-
nem in court was sufficiently toad by that cir-
cumstance, It had lawn alleged ass& triune against Mr. Cooke

narration had been imposed. Bette Mr. l'ooke was • duly
qualified barrister. Not an atomOf fraud had Leen proved,
and a pi esonal motive of profit bud not been attributed to
him. Was it to Ix. conic tided that an act perfectly legiti-
mate when done fur professional profit was to be scouted
when undertaken upon higher motirto ? The learned
counsel then again tialverted to the manner in which the
cut bad liven eouelitettol, and the haste With which the mo-
tion had loan pressed on. On Feb. 2 some person who hsl
contrived to get ponicasion of the bill had thought proper
to publish it in extelaso, containing, as it aid, the greowst
charges of fraud against the defendants, charges upon
which, if true, an indictment might he preferred. The
publisher had charitably added that the worst charges were
not published. After that, it had been his duty to his
chi its to refuse his acquiescence to any order has lag the
ab effect of delaying the public discussion of the merits of the
ease. Brielly thin the matter stood thus : the plaintiffs
alleged by their bill a fraud of the gruasest kind; and they
hail attempted to establish the same at the bar. 'Their two
only witnesses had been utterly discredited. The principles I
of law 'which they had referred to wrrr not strictly appli-
cable to the- question under discussion. They applied to
transaction* beton in parties between whom a fiduciary re-
lation existed, but they were inapplicable to gifts
to • charity. When an intention to give to a chit,
iity was established, as it had bees here, the only
thing necessary tee give validity to the transaction, was to
prove the legal execution of the dent of gift. The policy
of permitting the legality of such gifts was not the question
for diocusaion here. Since the alteration of the law in
favour of catholic charities, there could be no doubt of the
legality of such a gift. On these grounds hr submitted
that tli • lose of time °cautioned to the court by the present
discunion was entirely owing to the pLaiatiffs, and that the
motion should be dismissed with costs.
Mr. Bagshawc, who was with Mr. Rolt for Mr. Cooke,
warmly repudiated on behalf of all Roman catholic',
whether layman or priest, the doctrine which had been
attributed to them, namely, that in what was
considered • good ruse "the end justified the
means." Ho was content to adopt, with reference
to the present transaction, the language of Mr. Cooke him-
self " That if one-twentieth part of what was alleged
opting the parties to that transaction, by the bill, were
true, they all deserved to be hanged." No language would
be too strong to apply to them, and no punishment too
severe. The learned counsel then commented upon various
discrepancies between the bill and the affidavita afterwards
made in support of it, and inferred therefrom that the re-
presentations made by the witnesses had varied in the in-
turns'. He observed that the evidence of Hamilton and
Brown, upon which the plaintiffs mainly relied, had been
completely discredited, and the plaintiffs had entirely failed to
mtbstantiate the charge of fraud. The addition of the name
of Dr. Cox as • party conspiring was quite unjustifiable.

he even knew of the transaction. If the pantiff's case bed
been confined to dm legal question, m to the validity off

were prepared to court inquiry ; but they had been analre
polled to insist upon the preseut discuseion, after the imp

I was awoke by some one trying to open the door. I eh:a-
l.:wed them, but received no answer, and instantly after-
wards the door burst in, and five men entered the roam.
I had jumiwil out of Mal to get my gun, when one of the
men struck me on the shoulder with a pistol, and ordered
me to get into bed again. It was a large home-pi-MI that
he struck me with. I got into bed as tiles ordered me, and
one of the men then demanded my watch and money, and
gave them to him. They then demanded my keys. The
pnsioner Carter is the man who did so. Ile had a woman's
bonnet on, but I recognise him by his veins and 1 am sum
he is the man. Ile was hit us a guard over me, and I
should think he was under my observation for an
hour and a half. While he was so engaged, lie
talked to me, and said he had known m. from a child,
and I was WO stranger to him. I also recognise the prisoner
Morgan as one of the men. He had a red mask on, but I
recogni.e hint by his voice. I am satisfied he is one of the
num, hut I cannot identify any of the others. One of the
men wits a greed deal taller than any of the others. I have
not seen hint since. They took up a writing desk, and were
about to break it open when 1 said they had no occasion
to do that as I had given them the key ; and they replied,
that they did not want any keya, they lad a difft rent way
of doing business. Some of the men then left my Morn,
and I heard another door burst open, and one of the ladies
scream. The prisoner Carter was standing guard over
me at the time, and 1 legged him to go and see that his
roinpunions did not hurt the ladies. Shortly after this one
of the men came back, and he and Carter pulled me out
of bed and ordered me to go and show them where the
plate was. I. asked permission to put my shoes on,
and Carter made use of a vulgar expression, and said
that he did not wear any shoes and he did nit see
why I should. I then accompanied them down stairs, and
heard the rattle of plate in the pantry, and I saw some
men taking the plate out of a drawer and putting it into
an siprin. I was then taken up again to my bedroom,
and in about half an hour I heard the men leave the
house, said as soon as I was able I proceeded to Cekfield to
°lit a in assistance.
The witness was then shown a variety of articles consist-
ing of clothing and other property taken from the prisoners,
all of which he identified as leaving been stolen on the night
in question.
A great number of witnesses were then called in order to
confirm the evidence of the accomplice, and the evidence as
regarded most of the prisoners appeared to he of a very
conclusive character. It was shown that they were all in com-
pany at the time iu question, and they were traced in different
parts of the country, going in the direction of the house of
the prosecutor.; and it also appeared that the portions of
the stolen property which had been produced and identified
wery found in their p0,01(104011. It slot, appeared that when
the woman Oliver was taken into custody Id sovereigns
' were found concealed upon her person. Morton, the
' superintendent of the Tunbridge Wells polite, and Mr.
Millington, the chief officer of Guildford, who were the
officers employed in the case, appeared to have acted most
zealously in getting up the mow and in procuring the necea-
sary evidence.
The prisoners, when they were called upon for their de-
knee, merely abused the accomplice, and said that tiny

MANSION-HOUSE.
William Samuel Nmith llenk, chief cashier at Messrs.
CUIlliffe and Co.'s banking-house, in Lombard.strect, was
brought before the Lord Mayor, charged with having stolen
three 1001. bank notes, the property of his employers.
The prisoner hail been a few days ago charged with
having emlwrzled a bill of exchange for LW., which was
alleged to have been incised by hhn on account of the
firm, but it was stated on the part of the prosecution that
the firm did not on the present occasion intend to proceed
with that ease.
Mr. Surr, assisted by Mr. Ifribler, attended for the pro-
secution ; Mr. Parnell appeared for the prisoner.
The proceedings excited much interest, in consequence
of the report that the hrm had been robbed by some of their
iservanta of cash and bills to a very considerable amount.
The following ix the substance of the proceedings, the details
,of which occupied his lordship for a length of time :
Mr 'lhomita Undyed..w n, clerk to Messrs. Cunlitfe and Co.,
sohl—On the 2nd of D.rember last I received from the
Bank of England 2,0001. in notes, and entered them in our
waste cash-book. 't here were amongst them three notes of
100/. each, numbered from 87,172 to 87,174 inclusive, dated
February 11, 11450. 1 put those notes in the till. The pri-
soner was the chief cashier, and had the control of and tree
access to the till. It via. the duty of the clerk who takes
note+ from that drawer to enter the amount of the notes and
the date., and the names of the arties to whom paid, in the
rash-hook. I have searched the hook, hut there i. no
entry of these notes being paid away between the 2nd
and the Gth of December. On the 2nd of December there
is an entry in the prisoner's handwriting of 300/.
paid to Jones and Co. I have searched the hook we call
Jtleil'a book, and find an entry on the 2nd of Ikeemlwr in
the prisoner's writing of 3001. cash. In paying bank notes
to Jones Loyd and Co., we have not been in the habit at
all times of taking the numbers. It was the duty of the
prisoner to keep or check that book. There is a word
cheque" entered in this book. The cheque pc-eluvial for
3001. was paid into our house by a customer of ours of Man
cheater, where we have a house. The original entry of
3001. refers to that cheque, hut the word " cash " was
written against it by the prisoner. The entry could only
represent this cheque, because there was no other entry on
that day.
Cross-examined by Mr. Parnell—I am assistant cashier
and journal keeper, and have been so for about six years.
I Mr. linger Cunliffe assists in the business, and was at the
house yesterday. Mr. Spencer, the ledger-keeper, does not
usually write in the book which we call " Jones's Book."
There was a perien of the name of Lancragan in the same
employment. Ile has gone away. I believe he ran away
about a week after the prisoner went away. I think Mr.
Beale went away in February. Ile left behind him a box.
I do not know what it contained. I rather think it was
taken possession of by Mr. Cunlitfe. I do not know whe-
ther there were two or three boxes.
Mr. James Nairn Gladstones—I am clerk to Messrs.
Jones Lloyd and Co., of Lothbury, bankers. I keep a
portion of our books, which are divided into alphabetical
sections. The first section, A, IL C, contains the account
of Cunliffe and Co. with our house. I keep these
books. On the 2nd of December there is an entry of
2.3,4191.24. 8d., awl another entry of 54,4671. 17s. 8.1. in the
names of Cunlitf and Co. as paid in. I make the entries
in this book from the money 1 find in the box. There iv no
entry of any 100/. notes on that day. There is a list with
' the mow y which is paid in, and I produce a list which wan
taken off our tile, and which corresponds with the entry
made in our hook. There was no other amount paid in nn
that day by Measrs.Cunliffe, but there is an entry on the
following day, the 3rd of Ikeenikr, but not of any 1001.
note. There was no sum of 3001. paid in separately on those
days by Messrs. Cunliffe. There was a sum of 3001, form-
ing part of the sum of 54,4671. 17s. Rd., paid in on the 2nd
of December. It was a check upon Barnard and Co.
Cross-examined by Mr. Pannell—Moniy received from
the customer is entered by the cashier at the counter and
put into the Nix, and we take it out and enter it into
our book and check it tiff with the cashier. If the
cashier had omitted to enter it in his book and to put it
in the box there would be nu entry of it in the book I
produce.
Mr. J. Y. Watson, sharebruker, of St. Michael's-alley,
Cornhill—I know the prisoner, and have done business for
him. On the 3d of December last I received from him
300/. I do not recollect whether it was paid to me per-
sonally, hut the credit le enteral iu the hook. It is the
custom of our firm to pay to our bankers the identical
money we receive, and I believe that course was pursued on
the 341 of December last.
Cross-examined by Mr. Parnell—That 300/. was paid to
us on the current account of the prisoner Mc made a pur-
chase on that day in the Merllyn mine. It was an allot-
ment to him at 50a. per share. Those shares have been
since transferred to Mr. Cunliffe. I cannot exactly say when
I received instructions to transfer them, but I received the
instruction+ from Mr. James Cunliffe to transfer them to
him. I think it was before the prisoner was taken into
custody and after he had left the bank. I transferred other
shares from the prisoner to Mr. Cunliffe to a large amount.
I have not been paid for making the transfer. I received
no directions from the prisoner to make the transfer.
The Lord Mayor—Did the prisoner sign the transfer?
Witness—I did not see him sign the transfer. I gave
them to Mr. Cunliffe to get signed.
Mr. W.11. Cuell, partner of the last witness, said the 3001.
alluded to must have been paid either to him or to Mr.
Watson. It is the custom of our house to pay to the Lon-
don Joint Stork Bank each day all money received during
the day, the identical money received.
Cross-examined by Mr. Parnell—The Merllyn Mines
shares got up a good deal since. Then they were 50s., and
they are now from 4!. Gs. to 41. 10e. per share.
Mr. J. C. Stirke, cashier in the London Joint Stock
Bank. Princes-street, said: Mears. Watson and Cuell,
sharebrokers, are customers at our hank. On the 3rd of
December I received from that firm a sum of 4691. 7s. Gel.,
mostly in cheques and cheques and notes. The notes were
to the amount of MM. The particulars are entered by our
clerk.
Cross-examined.—I put the notes in a drawer for the
clerk to enter. 'the drawer contained other note,.
By the Lord Mayor—I wrote the name of the firm on the
last note, and pinnedthe notes together.
Mr. W. Gibbon, clerk in the London Joint-Stock Bank
—1 produce the bank note book of our bank. There is an
entry on the 3rd of December in my writing of 3.5.51. to the
names of Watson and Cuell. I made the entry from the
notes ; there were three of 1001. each. The numbers I so
entered are from 87,172 to 87,174 inclusive, dated 11th Feb.,
1850. The notes were pinned together.
Mr. James Cunliffe—I am a partner in the firm of Cusi-1
liffe, Brooks, and Co., of Lombard-street, bankers. The
prisoner was a clerk in our employment. Be was never
authorised by me to purchase any shares in my name or his
own ; quite the contrary. Ile was never authorised to take
any hank notes from our till or any other place in the house
for the purchase of shares. I know that he dealt in
shafts three or four years ago, hut not to what extent. I

eross-examined—The prisoner has transferred some
shares to us. I gave Mr. Watson authority to transfer
them. It was about the time the prisoner absconded. I
had never lent him any money. Mr. Roger Cunliffe is in
our house. I do not know that Mr. Roger Cunliffe gave
the prisoner any authority. Mr. Roger Cunliffe in still in
our house. When the prisoner came into our service he
had a bond from a guarantee society for his good conduct.
I gave that hood to Mr. Suer, my solicitor, who handed it
over to the prisoner's solicitor.
The Lord Mayor—What do you mean when you say
" quite the contrary" as to authorising the prisoner to pur-
chase shares ?

Witness—That I wholly disapproved of it.
Cross-esamined by Mr. Paraell—The prisoner absconded
before I knew anything of these shares. It was after he
absconded that I accepted the transfer of these shares. I
did not know their value when they were transferred. Our
solicitor has had a negotiation with the prisoner's solicitor.

NATIONAL DISINIF.CTED MANURE COMPANY.—
Yesterday, at a meeting before the Master in Chancery,
Ferrer, a call of 21. per share was proposed by Mr. Harding,
the official manager, to pay off debts. It appears that the
creditors at a meeting consented to take 13s. 4d. in the
pound in discharge of their claims. The liabilities origi•
naUy lodged in the office have been reduced by the dfficial
manager from 7,0001. to 1,2001., but out of the 217 share-
holders on the list of contributories, it is found that owing
to insolvency and from other causes 12 only are able to
respond to the present call.
