cheque-book, were forgeries. This witness proved that ere
formerly lived in Sloane-street. Two of the prisoners for-
merly lived in her hones at the same time as Miss Lloyd,
and this circumstance gave them an opportunity of ascer-
taining that Miss Lloyd was a lady of property, and kept
cash at Couttes. The amount of the (merle' on Coutts's
