°rtiieek, Pearson's wife pretended to be very an o-ry with him,
ordered him to leave the house. Next day, during Pear
-
eil 8 abgence, the wife decamped, and subsequent search
"Yed that she had not gone empty-handed. The parties
re traced to Manchester, and onFriday afternoon the pri
forZand his paramour were discovered in Greengate,

and in a beerhouse in Regent-road were found the
vee'ti°,ller's box and two bundles containing male and female
aPpjtrel, bedclothes, &c., most part the property of
of tO°ll. The guilty wife was in court during the hearing
