Kelly, a police oana k soy rprosecutor was stripped
of hie coat and widelonwt by another girl, with whom he
went home to a ham is BlneWs-fields, Shadwell. The
prosecutor had also perchmed bacon, beef, maim, mil
breed for the worms Crawley, examined on Thuradw, and
another female in whom company he had been eta i lee
emend hours.
Mr. Yardley—This old man appears to have had a variety
of female companion' since he has been in London, and they
have all fleeced him.
Mr. Yardley said, after hearing some further evidence,
that he should convict Burns for unlawfully pawning the
watch, and in default of paying Its., the sun for which it
was pawned, and a fine of 20e, sentenced her to be im-
prisoned and kept to hard labour for one month. He directed
that Its. should be paid to the pawnbroker out of the money
in the hands of the police, and the watch be restored to the
prosecutor. With regard to the woman '1 homes the prose-
cutor. conduct had been so foolish, that be could not ray
that what she bad done amounted to a felony. He asked the
old men when he was going home.
Wilcox—To-night, sir.
Mr. Yardley—You had better go by the first train. The
sooner you get tack to Cornwall the better.
Kelly 130 K, here opened a bundle containing bacon,
bam, cheese, bread, women's boots and slippers, gloves, four
salt cellar., a gluts decanter, and venom other articles
which he found in a publichouse whore the old man had left
the bundle.
Thomas (impudently)—He bought them for me. We
were to live together.
The old man admitted he had purchmed the things, but he
did not mein all of them for Thomas.
Kelly—The old man passed one eight with a black woman,
in Angel-gardens, Shadwell. (Laughter.)
Mr Yardley see there is a white gown in the bundle.
Did you buy that for the black woman, old man ?
Wilcox—Yee, I did, air. (Roan of laughter.)
Mr. Yardley was afraid the old man was as libidiuoun so
he woe silly, end aaked him if he had a site in Cornwall?
Wilcox—Yea, sir. I have got a wife.
Mr. Yardley—Why, last time you were here you said you
, bad no wife.
' Wilcox—l don't take my wile abroad with me, sir.
Mr. Yardley—l think you had better have brought her
to London, and she would have prevented you getting into
serapes. Did you bring that money up with her consent ?
Wilcox—Yes, sir.
Mr. Yardley—And will you tell her your adventures in
London ?
Wilcox—Yee, everything, sir.
Mr. Yardley—l think you are likely to meat with a warm
reception.
Kelly here mid the old mantled been a teetotaller 23 years
before he came to London, and having been tempted to drink
strong liquor again, he became ally, and an easy prey to the
loose and dishunent women in the locality. The old man
brought the money to London to buy his son out of the regi-
ment of Sippers and Miners, but he would not be bought
out.
