OLD COURT.
David Dundus, aged fifty, a military man on half.
pay, was indicted for forging and uttering a cheque for

SO/ , with intent to defraud Andrew Berkley Drummond
and others, well knowing the same to be forged, on the

Srh of August last,

Mr. BODKIN stated the case to the Jury, for the prose-
cution. The prisoner at the bar, although of the same
❑ame, wag totally unknown to his Lord.hip.
William Edmeads stated that he resided at 29, Gower-
place, Euston-square. The prisoner had lodged with him
three or four months, in 1829, and had resided latterly
upwards of twelve months. Incurred a debt for lodging,
amounting to 401. odd, which be paid by a bill of ex-
change, which had become due in August. On the bill
becoming due, prisoner sent for witness up stairs. Ar
that time another quarter's account was due. Prisoner
s iid, " Mr. Edmeads, here is your account," which in-
cluded the amount of the prisoner's bill. He placed a
cheque for 801. on the account, saying he was obliged to
go for three weeks into the country. Was going into the
City to the Bank. If heshould have time to return be would,
and take up the bill, receiving back the check again, which
he had received for a certain purpose, and did not want
to make use of it immediately. This took place at twelve
o'clock in the day. Witnesu took up the check with the
account, stating he would take care of it. Witn'ss then
left prisoner, went up again in about an hour, he inftrmed
prisoner that he had made a mistake in the bill. The
prisoner said, never mind, I have fifty for it. About

,wo o'clock prisoner went and in a short time a boy came

for his portmanteau, which witness fetched down ; found
that all the things the prisoner had, with the exception
of a pair of boots, were packed up in the rortmantetu ;
gave it to the boy, who took it towards Euston-square.
Went on the same day to the banking-house, and ten-
dered the check, of which payment was refused.
By Mr. Justice PATTisoN—The prisoner went by the
name of Captain Dundas.
Cross-examined by Mr. lloAtire—Hlid not told all that

paped when the check was given by the prisoner.
The prisoner asked where Moggeridge iived, which wit-

ness told him ; was quite certain tl,e prisoner did not say
the check was not for payment. The whole amount due

;o witne's was 671.

Witless did not pay the prisoner the

difference between the check and the amount of the debt.
