LINCOLNSIIIIIII ASSIZE.

FORGERY.—David Spreadbury was capitally- in-
dicted for uttering forged notes, particularly one
ten .pound note, purporting to be Of the bank of
Jelinson and Elkton,' Of StainfOrd, knowilfg the
sante to be forged. :Tbe first account we have
of the prisoner's appearance, In the capacity in
which he has made hitnS'elf so well known, is
at Derping, where 'lie arrived the 26th of nireli
last, in the Peterborough coach, and ordered 'a
chaise from 'the New-Inn, saying he was going- to
Lincoln. Before leaving- Deeping, he pass-
ed a-var into - the
,hands of Mr. Speighit (hutch.
lora of the New Inn), a ten pound note, pur-
porting to be of the bank . of Johnson and
Eaton, of Stamford, which Mr.' S. afterwards
found to be 'a forgery. He, was`next fothid on
the ro 'd from Newark to Grantham, havirg hired
a chaise at the Kingston's Arms there, and paid
away another ten pound note as one of John-
son 'mid Eaton's, receiving eight good notes
in return, tdgether with Iss. 6d. in sitser, The
prisoner said at-Newark that,his luggage bad gone
on by the coach, and that he was anxious to over-
take it, therefore had to go quick.. He accord-
ingly set off in haste in his chaise, but the
waiters at the Kingston's Arias were not long
iu discovering- what sort of a note had been
given by the prisoner. Joseph Appleyard;
who received.the note, slimed it ,to Alr. Law-
ton, keeper of the inn, who at first thought it good,
but sPeedily. thought of sending Joseph Battery
to 'the Bank with it. The batik was shut, and
Buttery shelved it to some gentlemen on his way
hack, who were of opinion it was n fag-cry.' Ile
therefore got upon one of his master's horses and
pursued the prisoner, with whom be came up at
Poston toll-bar, whieh is the Second bar on the
road front Newark to Granthain.----In the tnean
time, Ric:bard BeecrOft, the post-boy, who drove
Spieadbury, bail had his suspicions excited regard-
ing the views of the prisoner, for although he had
received deluge at NeWark, he wanted change for
a In/. note at Balderton toll-biir, where it Cada
not be obtained, and he .actually left the toll un-
paid there in consepience : at Poston toll-bar he
also wanted change, and got it for a ten pound
note. Buttery observed this,' and continued to
follow. The post-boy seeikg a person in.purseit,
and kiltiWillg his master's mare from her manner.
of trotting, was then sure that all was not right,
and determined to .aid the detection. Buttery
sfrove to conceal himself until they should ge:t to
Grantham, but he was observed by Spreadhury,
who kept nrging the post-boy to go quicker, but
who mended not his pace. Spreadhury expressed
apprehensions that their pursuer intended to rob
him, and jumped out of the chaise a little before
it got to Grantham, but wjs not lost' sight of,
acid he scented as well aware that he was pursued.
He was observed to go up a passagep the town
of Grantham which was'not a thoroughfare, 'but
which terminated in the entrance to some work-
shops, where he was taken into custody by. a
constable. On searching him, about 401.,in good
notes and some silver were found upon his per-
son, and in the passage where he hail attempted
to 'secrete himself, were seven ten pound notes,
such as he had been passing, and a blank note
(unsigned) rolled up Three of these notes, toge-
ther with the blank, and the other, three .which
had. been exchanged, were produced in court,
and being all purporting to be of Johnson and
Eaton's bank, called erroneously the Stamford
and Ilutlandshire, instead of
Rutland batik, were
pronounced by Mile. Eaton, one of the partners,
to be forgeries, Mr. Eaton stated, that lie had
deethed it incumbent to'give full value for the
three notes 'passed away by Sprekidhory to the
holders, who were in Court, and identified their
notes by marks which they had made upon them.
The prisoner made no defence. The Judge, in
summing up, observed, that the charge was satis-
factorily establialked, and the Jury brought hi
verdict of Guilty.
The unhappy man received sentence of death
in an impressive way, and is to suffer on Friday
the 13th instant (to-morrow.) •
