Sergeant Cole, 23 C, said that yesterday afternoon he saw
the two prisoners standing near the London Crystal
Palace, in Oxford street, and not liking their appearance,
he watched them, when he saw Macnamara, who was carry'
ing a black leather bag, leave the other and go to the side
of a lady and feel her dress. They then crossed the street/
and went down Regent-street to the toy shop of 'VII*.
Cremer, where there was a number of ladies looking in, and
he saw Macnamara there feeling the ladies pockets, but
when a constable in uniform came by she coughed as a
sort of signal, and they then moved away. He saw there
return to Mr. Cremer's shop, and Macnamara put her hand
into a lady's pocket. They then left and went to Jeffrey's'
the butchers, in Fobert-place, where they got one on sa►eh
side of a lady, and then left there and want back to Mr.
Cremer's, and had not been there a minute before Mr.c'
namara put her hand into a lady's pocket, who, on hill
speaking to her, said she bad lost lls. He then, with
assistance, took them into custody, and Macnamara said
she had only just met the other prisoner ; but he knew
them to be from the neighbourhood of Flower and Dean'
street, Spi, alfields. Macnamara had been at the court be''
fore, and Tyner he knew as a companion of thieves.
