before Mr. Conibe, charged with stealing two pint pewter
pots from the Anchor and Bight Bells public-house, Ber-
mondsey-street.
Mrs. Sanders, the wife of the landlord, said that the pri-
soner came into her house several times the previous evening,
soden one occasion she missed& pot from the tap-room after she
had left. About seven o'clock she entered the house again,
and was served with half a pint of beer in a pint pot. Wit-
ems then looked a little after her, hut she managed to leave
the house suddenly, and then she missed two pint puts from
the counter. She instantly called the potnian, and directed
him to pursue thener and bring her back.
The potnian said he prisohad seen the prisoner in the house
several times the previous evening, and he knew her well. As
sooner his mistress told him aboutthe pot, he wentafter her
and stopped her, when he perceived the handle of a pot
peeping from under her shawl. A constable came up at the
time, and the two pots produced, belonging to his master,
were taken from her.
Mr. Combo asked if she was known !
John Marsh, 184 M, said he knew her to be a pot.stealer.
In July last she was tried and sentenced to six weeks for
pot-stealing.

it was wrongfully, as some one put the pot in her pocket at
that time. She know nothing about the pot in question.
Mr. Comb. told her that she must make a jury believe
that, therefore he should commit her fur trial. He had no
doubt as to their verdict.
