The Learned Counsel said. that Mr. Holloway

fore a fraud to cheat him out of his cable.
The Commissioner—,, There is no proof that
the cable was Mr. Holloway* or that the money
was to be 'received for his own use."
The Intolvent--44 No; I merely gave him the
order to collect the mammy for me. I never get it.
because Hr. Holloway said he could not bud the

Captain."
Mr. BARRY resumed the examination of the In.
eolvent, who stated, that in 1812 he purchased a
Dutch galliot, and brought the vessel up in front
of his house in Northfleet. He mentioned to Mr.
Holloway, whom he had known through an sea-
dental circumstance, that the vessel was a great
bargain, and might be converted into warehousing
on • good account. Mr. Holloway agreed to join
in this speculation, and he (Mr. Sandom) that laid
out nearly SOW. in fitting up the vessel as a ware-
house, after she was dismantled. It was then that
he sold the cable to Captain Watson among other
things. The whole speculation about the galliot
was, however, knocked up, owing to his having
been indicted by the City of London, in 1816, for
a nuisance, as it oat alleged the vessel obstructed
'Use due navigation of the river. For this he was
emtvicted at the Maidstone Assizes. and sentenced
to pay a small fine, on condition that the nuisance
was abated. To get himself out of the scrape,
Mr Holloway gave him a bill of sale of the ship,
Ond he was to represent himself as the servant of
sr. H. at the trial; but the Jury paid no attention
to this statement. There were considerable dealings
between Mr. Holloway and him, but Mr. H. had,
three years ago, seized all his papers. and never
furnished him with any account, though repeatedly
pressed for that purpose. He particularly urged
him to make out this account, when they were
confined together io the King's Bench for • teen-
section (the hoax) of which Mr. Holloway knew
more than he did. as he was led iuto it. Mr. Hol-
loway had never paid him One 'billing of the 9001.
he had laid out upon the galliot, for roofing in and
fitting up the warehouses.
Mr. BARRY called John Peter Holloway, who
stated in his examination, that he became acquaint-
ed with Ralph Sandlot% in 1811, through the cir-
cumstance of his having a bill upon him. in the
settlement of which he had accommodated the In-
solvent. Shortly after, Sondem called on him, and
said, " You did me • service in the bill affair, I
am come to do you another." He added, that there
was a Dutch galliot, worth 860/. for sale. and he
thought he could get it for 3801. and that it would
answer capitally for warehousing. Witness accord-
ingly made the purchase, and agreed to enter into
the speculation with Sandals. The latter gave
him the order for 1091. on Captain Watson, for •
cable he bought on board the ship, but be was never
able to find out any such person, so he considered
himself as defrauded by Sodom. The latter was
subsequently indicted for the nuisance as stated.
and pleaded that he was a servant of witness, who
admitted he had lent him the bill of sale of the
ship. to cover him. if possible, from the haiku.
