In his defence the Prisoner, Brek; enteredinto
a minute detail of circumstances wNkii.seemed to
have but little referenCe to the Caie.' 'A9y/e's
defence was an endeavour to establish an alibi, and

The Lord CHIEF...BARON, who tried the Case,
observed in-his charge to the Jury, that much would
lie on -the question-of identity : first, whether .the
Prosecutor, describing himself to have been several
hours in company, might not pOsSibl7.' have been-. 11
so much.affeaed
.by liquor, as hot to have been in
complete possession of his.faculties, and afterwards,
whether; the confusion and fright naturally resulting

- ed.as to put it out-of his power accurately to.dis-
tinguish the persons of the Prisoners.. After re-
wlth great clearness and ability, the
