CHARON Or DIIIAI3 DING LORD usouonAN's
George Newnan, aged 55, horse dealer, of no rattled
tame, was brought up on a warrant by King, 76 1),
charged with fraudulently obtaining from Captain Wilfred
Brougham the sum of N. with intent to defraud.
Mr. Pain appeared to prosecute, and Mr. Johnson for
the prisoner.
Captain Brougham (who it was stated was Lord
Brougluun's nephew) said ha was captain in the 17th
!snows stationed at Aldershot. He saw an advertisement

in the Times of a horse for sale and called at Harley-
mews,the place advertised. He there saw the prisoner who
laid he was nephew to Mr. Newman, of Regent-treet, and
that they carried on business together. On the
faith of this representation and believing him to be
respectable, and also upon his giving a warranty as to the
soundness of the horse, he parted with his money. He
pre him a cheque on Cox's for 201. and a promissory note
signed by him, and upon which he had been sued. When
the horse was sent home it was found utterly impossible
either to ride or drive it, it was so exceedingly vicious. The
prisoner had warranted it to be quiet, and there was also an
nt that if he (prosecutor) did not approve of the horse
ri Tturned it within • given time the money would be
returned. He wrote to the prisoner to say be wished to
return the horse. The prisoner told him to send it to the
stable in Harley-mews and the money would be returned.
The hone was sent but there was only a lad to receive it,
and as the prisoner was nut there and no money or bill
forthcoming it was not left.
Cross-examined—lt was not only because he wished to
have his money returned, but to protect the public as well.
Mr. Johnson said be was sure a criminal court ought not
to be put in motion in a matter like this.
Mr. Yardley thought there was sufficient in the case for
the court to take cognisance of. He set his face against
cheating.
The warranty was read. It said, " Warrant the hone
to be sound, quiet to ride and drive, and should it be
otherwise I promise to return the money."
By Mr. Johnson—They had rough-riders at the
school at Aldershot, and they found it
ainsoesible
to ride the horse. He should say it was an horse.
He did not offer him the loan of a bridle to ride the animal
round the stable. The hone was to be sent to Aldershot.
Mr. Johnson—Didn't he offer to let you ride it in the
*art?

Captain Brougham—No.
Yr. Johnson—Didn't it occur to you to try it in the
street?

Kr. Yardley (interposing)—lt stands to reason that a
rifleman would not Pike to be seen riding a horse back-
wards and forwards in the streets of London.
Captain Brougham said he should not have parted with
tin money, if pnaoner had not said Mr. Newman was his
nude.

Mr. Newman, 121 Regent-street, poet and job master,
rid he had not the slightest knowledge of the prisons;
sod he had never been in any way connected with him. He
led never had any stables in Harley-mews.
Ring, D, said he had been looking after the prisoner
for some time. The prisoner had told parties that Harley-
tows bonged to him, but be had the owner there to
tebut
Mr. Yardley decided upon remanding prisoner till
Saturday next.
