money for a person named Hindley, with a view to
an investment in the funds. On Sept 1, 1865, the
amount in his hands was £146195. 4d. ; and for this
be gave a cheque on his own bankers, and that
cheque, together with £lOO in cash, he received from
Hindley. The total amount he paid over at Sey-
mour and Elwyn's office either to his brother or to
the prisoner, and the cheque was returned to him
from his bankers as having been paid.
Mr. William Alfred Stone, one of the firm of ac-
countants who had been engaged by the prosecutors
to examine and report upon the state of their books
in reference to the prisoner's defalcations, was next
called and examined by Mr. Bexley. He proved that
the books of the prosecutors had been placed in his
hands in the month of August last year. They
commenced from January, 1865, and ended in June,
1866. The examination of the books occupied two
of his clerks incessantly between six and seven
months under his superintendence, he himself hav-
ing devoted four months to their investigation. The
accounts in the books involved transactions of great
magnitude. The cash book and ledgers for April,
1865, contained no account of the £902 10s. cheques
in favour of De Zoete and Co., but the cheque for
£430 12s. 6d. had been duly entered, and could be
traced. On the 6th April, 1865, there was an entry
of £lolos. as paid by clo,queto theprisoner, whereas
it had since been ascertained by the number and
counterfoil of the cheque that it had been drawn by
the prisoner for £2OO. The witness further proved
the embezzlement by the prisoner on the Ist Sep-
tember, 1865, of £2OO, as shown by an entry by
him in his cash book of the payment into the bank
of £1,952 16s. 7d., whereas the sum actually paid
in by the prisoner, as shown by the bankers' pass
book, was £1,752 16s. 7d., being a deficiency of
£2OO. On the 11th Jan., 1866, the cash book con-
tained an entry by the prisoner of a payment into
the bank of £6lB 155., but there had been no actual
payment, and it was not in any way accounted for.
In the same way the cheque received by the prisoner
from Mr. Payne for £l3O was not accounted for in
any way. Though the examination of the books
was commenced in August last, it was not until he
made him report that he had arrived at the gross
amount of the prisoner's deficit or defalcations, but
u September last he was aware that they amounted

to considerably more than £2,000.
In his cross-examination by Mr. Sleigh, the wit-
ness stated that the books he examined were such
as were generally kept in a stockbroker's office. In
the ledger for 1864-5 he found a debtor and creditor
account between the prisoner and the prosecutor.
This account commenced on the 15th January, 1864,
and went on to the end of December, 1865, and it
disclosed transactions between them to the extent
of from £B,OOO to £lO,OOO in the aggregate. The
learned counsel proceeded by his questions to analyse
the various items comprising the account, but
nothing material was elicited.
In his re-examination by Mr. Bosley, it was
elicited from the witness that the total deficits
amounted to 5,1,1,293 1.55. 9d., including all the
cases which had been examined into before the pre-
siding aklerman.
Mr. Bosley applied for a summons to Mr. Graves,
a stockbroker, to attend to give evidence, and to
produce a cheque of the proceeds of which the pri-
soner had availed himself, and he must ask for a
further adjournment for Mr. Graves' attendance,
as with his evidence he should close the case at pre-
sent. If those engaged for the prosecution should
consider it necessary to prefer further charges, due
notice of the particulars should be given to those
engaged for the defence.
The applications were granted, and the prisoner
was further remanded until this day (Wednesday).
Mr. Sleigh expressed a hope that the depositions
would be furnished without delay, to enable him to
apply to a judgo at chambers to admit the prisoner
to bail.
