POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
SOUTHWARK.
Thomas Freeman and Elizabeth Russell were placed a,
the bar before Mr. Combe for re-examivation, charged.
Paid. Price. with having in their possession a large quantity of coun-
terfeit money, consisting of shillings and sixpences, to-
gather with plaster of Paris moulds used for the purpose
of coining.
Policeman Watson, 131 M, stated that from informa-
tion he received he went on Friday, the 28th ultimo, to
the house No. 5, Paradise-row, Gravel-lane, and in a
room on the ground-floor found both the prisoners. The
• prisoner Russell, who sat near the fire-place, immedi-
ately threw something from her lap into the grate, and
afterwards conveyed several counterfeit sixpences into
her mouth, which she attempted to swallow, but was
prevented by his seizing her by the throat. The other
ice. prisoner attempted to destroy the contents of two quart
bottles on the table, but was also prevented by another
constable, and on subsequent examination of their con-
tents they were found to be nearly filled with a liquid
used for giving a silvery appearance to such
coin as that found in their possession. On
searching the water-closet 135 counterfeit sixpences
were discovered concealed in the rafters, together
with plaster of Paris moulds, which seemed to have been
very recently in use. When Freeman was told that he
must go to the station-house, he exclaimed, " So help me
God, if you had come an hour before or an hour after,
you would have us to rights," meaning by that expres-
sion that they (the prisoners) would have been captured
in the very act of coining.
A clerk from the office of the solicitor of the Mint
stated that both the prisoners were known, and that
they were tried;together a few sessions ago for a similar
offence.
When the prisoners were asked if they wished to put
any questions to the witnesses, or to say anything in their
defence,
Freeman said, in a surly tone, that it would be useless
for him to interrogate eitner of the policemen, for he
„ knew that he could not exact the truth from them. He
added, that he and his fellow-prisoner would have a
%
16 good answer to the charge when before the judge, and
that they should, therefore, reserve what they had to
say until their trial.
The prisoners were then committed.
HAMMERSMITH.
Elizabeth Weir, alias Olivia Davidson, a stylishly-
dressed young female, a Henry Reynolds, aged 23
years, who described himself as a horse dealer, were
brought before Mr. Paynter on remand, charged with
uttering forged notes of the Bank of England.
Mr. James Hunt, a linen-draper of the Broadway,
Hammersmith, deposed that on Friday afternoon week,
shortly after the gas had been lighted, the female pri-
soner entered his shop, and purchased goods to the
amount of 7s. 6d. of one of the shopwomen. The pri-
soner tendered in payment what seemed a Bank of Eng-
land note for 51, and on its being handed to witness fur
change be immediately discovered it to be a forged one.
Witness spoke to the prisoner, and said, as she appeared
respectable, she would have no objection to give her ad-
dress. She replied that she had not, and said she lived
atNo. 2, Latymer-place, Hammersmith.:Witness:detained
the forged note, and said he would send the goods home
with the prisoner by one of his shopmen, with change
for a sovereign, and she could then pay him. The pri-
soner agreed to that proposition, and after they
had left the shop witness followed them. The
prisoner, after walking some distance, suddenly
stopped, and told the shopman he had better bring
the goods home in the evening, as she would not then
be able to pay him when she reached her residence. Wit-
ness then stepped up, and accused her with having
giving a false address. She replied, after some hesita-
tion, that she had, and that her residence was in London.
She was then given into custody, and stated that her
name was Olivia Davidson, but afterwards said that her
true name was Weir. She also said that she would not
have done it, but that she was starving.
Police-constable Hitohman, an active officer of the T
division, apprehended the male prisoner on the following
Saturday, in Lower Chelsea, in consequence of what the
female prisoner said to him. He ascertained that both
prisoners resided at No. 24, Lower Sloane-street, Chel-
sea, and that the female cohabited with a!notorious horse-
oouper.
Mr. Charles Powell was then examined, and he stated
that he was in the employ of Messrs. Holmes and Co.,
drapers, &c., No. 73, Regent-street. On the 30th of
June last the female prisoner entered the shop, and pur-
chased a shawl for two guineas. She tendered what
seemed to be a 101. Bank of England note in payment.
Witness said he did not like the appearance of the note,
and asked her if she had sufficient money with her to
pay for the shawl, without changing the note. The
prisoner said she had not, and witness then gave the note
to the clerk, John Bell, and the prisoner received the
change, after she had given her address, No. 14, Wil-
mington-square jerkenwell, and stated her name to be
Mrs. Smith. The note was handed to Mr. Holmes, and
he detected it to be a forgery. Witness went the next
day to the address given by the; prisoner, and found the
house to be unoccupied. He had not seen the prisoner
since, until he saw her in the police-cell.
In cross-examination by Mr. Gillham, witness said he
was quite positive the female prisoner was the person.
She was in the shop twenty minutes, and he had ample
opportweiaies Of seeing her face.
