ROLLS' COURT.--(THIS DAY.)

interest.

CRIMINAL COURT.-(THIS DAY.)
OLD COURT.
(Before Mr. Justice COLTMAN.)
THE LATE ROBBERY AT TIIE CATHERINE WHEEL, IN THE
BOROUGH.— William Burfeld, a porter, was indicted for
stealing, on the 27th of January, a pocket-book, containing
bank-notes to the amount of 3001., the property of Francis
George Shaw Skipp.
Mr. Ballantine and Mr. Wilde attended for the prosecution,
and Mr. Clarkson defended the prisoner.
Mr. BALLANTINE having opened the case, proceeded to
call witnesses.

Francis Shipp stated that he recently resided in Finchlev,
and had since been in the Queen's Bench Prison, from which
place he had come that morning. On the '26th of January
he had received 3001. He was then staying at Drummond's
Hotel, and his brother-in-law, Mr. Last, was staying with
him. On that day they left the hotel at four o'clock, witness
having previously deposited his pocket-book, containing the
money, in his left boot, and strapped the trowsers down.
About five o'clock on the succeeding morning they arrived
at the Catherine Wheel in the Borough, where they asked for
beds. The prisoner let them in and informed them that there was
only one room unoccupied, to which they were shown. Wit-
ness sat down at the foot of the bed and asked the pri-
soner to pull off his boots. Last, who was much intoxicated,
was then at the other side of the room. Witness felt his
boot, and found that the pocket book was then quite safe.
The prisoner pulled off his left boot, and witness observed
him stoop for a second. He jumped up almost immediately,
said he had left the gate open, and left the room, and at the
same time witness discovered that his pocket book was gone.
The prisoner returned in about five minutes, and witness then
told him that he had lost his pocket-book, and that there •
fore he (prisoner) must have taken it. Prisoner said, "Do
you mean to say that I robbed you? because if you
do you may search me." Witness took prisoner's cap off,
but was not allowed to search further, the prisoner
saying, " Keep your hands off me, don't be after putting any-
thing in my pocket." Witness said that he should call a
policeman, on which the prisoner called up his master. The
landlord, Mr. Gunder, said he was quite satisfied of the ho-
nesty of his servant. After some time passed, witness went
out and called a policeman or two, who searched the room,
but not the persons of those present. On leaving the Ca-
therine Wheel for the station-house, witness and his brother-
in-law walked in front ; the prisoner was nearest the shops.
At the station-house the prisoner was searched, and nothing
found on him. Witness and Mr. Last were also searched, at
the desire of Mr. Gunder.

Mr. CLARKSON cross-examined the witness at great length,
and he was also re examined by Mr. Ballantine, but nothing
material was elicited.

George Last gave somewhat similar evidence.
James Hall, 101 M, observed a cab stop on the morning of
the 27th January, at the Catherine Wheel, from which Mr.
Skipp and the last witness descended, and passed within th,e
gate. In about half an hour, witness was called in, and in-
formed by Skipp that he had lost his pocket book, and would
have the house searched for it. Mr. Gander said he should
not allow his house to be searched, as it would disturb the
lodgers. Witness then recommended Skipp to bring two
more policemen, and he did se. Mr: Skipp said "it was no
use searching the prisoner, as he (Mr. Skipp) had done so
already." Some of the rooms were searched, and they after-
wards walked to the station. The prisoner and witness
walked first, the prisoner being on his right hand side. Mr.
Skipp and Mr. Last, with a policeman, followed, and Mr.
Gander came after. They preserved the same order in passing
the top ofAdams- court. . _ _

By the Learned JUDGE—A complaint was lodged against
him for neglecting to search the prisoner at the Catherine
Wheel ; but the decision on that complaint was deferred until
the trial was over.

Henry Assister, 30 M, said, that the prisoner told him
when walking to the station that he had been searched.
John Shelley Yates, inspector, produced a pocket-book
handed to him by a person named Munro, containing four
50/. and one 100/. notes. The prosecutor and Last were
sober when the eharge was taken at the station-house.
William Munro, employed at the Phoenix Gas Company,
received the pocket-book from a person named William Cox,
and banded it over to the last witness.

William Cox, servant to the Phoenix Gas Company, was
passing down the Borough at a quarter to six o'clock on the
morning of the 27th of January, and kicked against the
pccket- hook, which lay about the middle of the pavement,
nearly opposite Adams-place, and' in the way from the
Catherine Wheel to the station-house.

Mr. CLAIIKsort addressed the jury for the prisoner, and
contended that nothing was shown bringing home the charge
to him.

Mr. Justice COLTMAN summed up, and the jury retired to
consider their verdict. After an absence of half an hour,
they returned into Court with a verdict of Guilty.—Sen-
tence deferred.

NEW COURT.
(Before the RECORDIR.)
No case of any importance came on in this court during
he morning.

WORSHIP-STREET.-(THIS DAY.

A man named Yarnell was charged on the police sheet
with stealing a quantity of paper, valued at 3/. 18s., the
property of Mr. John Knight, paper-hanger, of No. 190,
Brick-lane, Spit altielea.
From the evidence of police-constable Hanway, 118 G, it
appeared that a man named Munro, was this last week tried
and sentenced to twelve months' imprisonment for robbing
Mr. Knight, the prosecutor in this present instance, of a
quantity of valuable paper. Munro was duly conveyed to
prison, where he at once made a communication to the
authorities there, implicating Yarnell. The subject of the
communication was transmitted to the Recorder, who or-
dered that Yarnell, who is described as an oilman, of No. 1,
Earl-street, Finsbury, should be immediately taken into cus-
tody and conveyed before a magistrate. Twenty-two rolls
of paper, valued at between 9f. and 101. stolen property, had
already been discovered.
Munro, it appears, was in the habit of calling with a horse
and cart at various paper-stainers, with an order from Mr.
So-and-So, for a quantity of paper, which was delivered to
him at once, when he was met with on the road by Yarnell,
who eased him of his booty.
The prisoner was remanded, in order to have time for fur-
ther investigation.
THE CASE OF LETITIA HANNAN.— It will doublessly be
gratifying to many of our readers to learn, that the case of
the young woman, Loetitia Hannan, the particulars of which
appeared in The Sun of Thursday se'nnight, has been
attended to by several distinguished, benevolent individuals,
and the result has been that she will be enabled to carry
into effect the laudable design she had in view, viz., that of
opening a school on her own account.
Mr. ARNOLD, in announcing further donations, said that
the envelope of one of them contained a recommendation for
her to apply to the Governess's Home Society. He (Mr.
Arnold) had instituted inquiries respecting her, and the re-
sult was so satisfactory that he would be happy himself
personally to recommend her.
The Magistrate then desired Hayward, one of the warrant-
officers of the Court, to give her the necessary assistance, in
the purchase of those articles required for the purpose of
carrying into effect the object desired, and the recipient,
having thanked the worthy magistrate for the assistance he
had rendered her, left the office.

CLERKENWELL-(THIS DAY.)
Mary Clarke, an interesting-looking girl, about 16 years of
age, was charged before Mr. Greenwood with having com-
mitted a number of robberies in the vicinity of Somers-town,
Camden-town, and Kentish-town, The prisoner was deeply
affected, and wept all the time she was in the dock.
From the evidence of a number of witnesses who were in
attendance, it appeared that a gentleman, named Lambden,
residing in Albion-terrace, Somers-town, hearing a noise in
his hall, went down and found the prisoner concealed in the
yard. She had with her a large bundle, containing a damask
tablecloth, some sheets, and a qaantity of wearing ap-
parel, and said she wanted to see a lady named
Smith. No person of that name being known, and
the prisoner being unable to give any more satisfactory
account of herself, Mr. Lambden gave her in charge to a
policeman, when it was ascertained that the house of Mr.
Rutherford, at No. 4, York-place, Somers-town, bad been
robbed of several articles, amongst which were the sheets
and table-cloths produced in court this day.
The constable said that he had not as yet had time to
make inquiries after the owners of other property which had
been found upon the prisoner.
Mr. GREENWOOD committed her for trial on the charge of
robbing Mr. Rutherford, but ordered ber to be brought up
