before Mr. Cooke with stealing a cash box, 1104 in gold,
silver, and Bank of England notes, the property of Mr.
Francis Frederick Fielders.

Mr. Ricketts, solicitor, of Frederick-street, Gray's Inn-
read, defended.
Mr. Francis Frederick Fielders, said—l am now an in-
patient of University College Hospital, and am a chemist
and druggist. On Monday, the 2nd inst., I arrived in
London from Liverpool, and was told that the
prisoner's coffee house was a very respectable one, and
accordingly I went there. I asked the prisoner to take
care of my carpet bag which contained& cash box with 1101.
consisting of gold, silver, and two Bank of England notes
for 51. ear, and some of my clothes. I did not say to
the prisoner that there was any money in the carpet bag.
I went to bed and did not recollect anything until I awoke
and found myself in the University Co Nge Hospital,
where I have remained ever since. When I left the hag
and cash-box they were both locked, but when they were
brought to me by my father the carpet bag was done up
with straps, and the cash-box had been forced open.
In cross-examination the prosecutor said—l went to
the hospital on Monday, the 9th. I cannot say what be-
came of me from one Monday to the other. Ido not recol-
lect having any drink and sleeping at the prisoner's
house from day to day. I do not recollect anything
from Monday, the 2nd, till I awoke at the hospital,
and that was on Wednesday, the 11th. I
was told that I was taken to the hospital on
the 9th. I have no ids of having taken any
food fora week. 1 took the beg to bed with me. I have
no recollection of myself after going into the bedroom till
I awoke and found myself in the hospital. I cannot say
whether I locked the door or not, but I imperfectly sure
that I was sober.

Mr. Thomas Tobey, gentleman, of 77, Camberwell New-
road, Kennington, said—On Friday week I went with the
complainant's father to the prisoner's coffee-bonse. The
prisoner ipve the carpet-beg to the father. When we got
into • public-house at Westminster, the father opened the
co. It was not looked, but gimps were around it. It
ntained a cash-box, which was Dialed, but it was opened
with athe father, and it contained three sovereigns
and a farthing. The next day the father took the key and
mah-box to e police-statics.
Cross-examined by Mr. Riekette—l have known the
complainant's father for the lest 90 yews. He was a
chemist and druggist, but is now living on his means. We
received the box in the morning between the houre of 9
and 12. The father opened the keg between 3 and 4
o'clock. We went from the prisoner's house to Waterloo

and I pve it to his father, and if it had any money in it
it must be in the bag."
