mine two bundles belonging to the prisoner, when he
found the three pint pots, two half-pint pots, and
two pewter measures produced. He then hail a
conversation with the prisoner about them, and, on
opening the bundles a second time, he said, upon being
questioned about the pots, that they were his property,
and that he had bought them, but not being able to
read, he could not tell what name was upon them.

establishment within the last few weeks. The pint
pewter pot produced was his property, and he never

months back in Duck-lane, Westminster, and the only
