prosecu tor could not be actuated by any sinister motive, the Jury would, '
however disagreeable it might be to their feelings, perform their duty,

Mr. Arundel was then exatrdued, and gave evidence to the above
efts ct.
Cross-exalnined by Mr. ALLEY.—He said that after he had left nan-
kin and Co.'s, he had been employed in a house, 30, Cheapside, which
Issel failed while be was there; he had been for the lasts three weeks em-
ployed by the Earl of Warwick to adjust the account of a soap-maim-
tactory, in which his Lordship was concerned. He did not know his
Lordship personally ; he was employed by his agent, Mr. Beveridge.
Mrs. Lissun had come to his shop, in consequende of his halting re- '
ceived from a Miss Bewick, one of a number of cards which he bad
commissioned that person to distribute. He had never said on his
examination at Hatton Garden that his wife had helped hits to pack
the lace he took to Mrs. Lisson's the night before he went there, he had
packed it himself the morning he went. The-names of the officers
who had assisted him in his search for his property were not at the back
et the hill which had been found by the Grand Jury. He had not
irought them betsee the Grand Jury. His wife was not In Court. . 'He 1
ceill have brought her forward asan evidence.
Mr. ALLEY. Why did you not?—A. I did not think it necessary
Mr. ALLE r. What! You imagined the story you hive told would be
Lehi:yid upon your own assertion ?—A. I don't expect you to believe me.
Mr. ALLEY. I dare say my faith is as great on this occasion as that of
any other person here. Is this the first time you had a criminal prose-
cution on hands t—A. Yes.
Mr. ALLEY. And you never complained of any one having robbed
'you at a police office ?—A. No.
Mr. ALLEY. You never complained of your wife or mother having
!sallied you ?—A. No.
The prosecutor, however, on being questioned by his oven Counsel
said, that he had got an officer• from the Marlborough-street, not the
Hatton Garden Office, to accompany him once to Chelsea, where hie wife
happened to be, in order to search her person for two memorandums of
some value, which he suspeetsd her to have taken out of his pocket.
Notwithstanding this humiliating confeleion, he continued to support a
most disgusting effrontery, which he had exhibited throughout the
whole of his examination, unaltered. . - .
Mr. Joseph King, the prisoner's Solicitor, deposed that he had heard
Ibe prosecutor in his examination at Hatton Garden, positively and
repeatedly affirm that his wife had assisted him to pack up the articles
he carried to Asley-street the night before he went there. • ,
John 'Atkin, partner to Mr. King, deposed to the same eflest.
Mr. Justice Hann ».—Gentlemen of the Jury, it appears to me that
this business need proceed no farther. There are other witnesses ready
to appear for the prisoner. Among them many noble persons, who
would state her character to be perfectly pure, hut the prosecutor,
whose testimony is in itself extremely weak, has been contradicted by
two respectable and unbiassed witnesses. I think you can have no he-
sitation in acquitting the prisoner.
The Jury rose to a man, and without the least previous communi-
cation, each seemed desirous of usurping the office of Foreman, and
assured the Judge of their entire acquiescence in • what he had said.
The course of the poor victim's feelings now took a different tone, she
sunk down in her chair, burst into tears, and was obliged to be carried
out of Court.—While it would be difficult to say whether pity or in-
dignation predominated in the breasts of those who had witnessed the
last stage of her unmerited sufferings—sufferings which if we may judge
froneher appearance, it is but too probable will soon cause her to be-
came an inhabitant of that dwellitif fig where the wicked cease from
troubling, and the weary are at rest. '
