THE EXTENSIVE EMBEZZLEMENTS BY
A STOCKBROKERS' CLERK.

At the Mansion-house police court yesterday,
William John Hurst, late of Hawkshurst.lodge,
Lower Sydenham, clerk, was brought up before Al-
derman Sir R. Carden for further examination on
the charge of embezzling and stealing large sums,
the moneys of Messrs Seymour and Elwyn, of
Throgmorton-street, stockbrokers, his masters and
employers.
Mr. Besley again attended as counsel to conduct
the prosecution ; and Mr. Sleigh appeared, as at the
previous examination, on behalf of the prisoner.
Mr. Begley said he proposed now to complete that
part of the case opened at the last examination, re-
lative to the stealing
a cheque for £902 10s., pur-
porting to be drawn by him in favour of Messrs. De
Zoete and Co. It would be remembered that it had
been shown that the prisoner, on April 3, 1865,
drew a cheque for that amount, and obtained to it
the signature of one of the firm, and that upon that
day no such sum was due by them to Messrs. De
Zoete. He should now show that no such cheque
ever passed through the hands of De Zoete and Co.,
but that another cheque for £430 12s. 6d. was re-
ceived by them on 4th April, and was passed in the
regular way through their books.
Mr. Henry C. Bunning,
cash clerk at Messrs. De
Zoete's, was then called, and proved that on refer-
ence to the cash-book he could state positively that
on April 3, 1865, there was no such sum as £902
10s. owing to his firm by
the prosecutors, and that
no cheque for that amount had ever been received
by them. On April 4 (on the following day) there
was a sum of £430 12s. 6d. due,
and for that the
prosecutors' cheque had been received and been paid
by witness into the bankers to the credit of his em-
ployers' account. _ _

_
Mr. Besley said that completed the case of steal-
jug the cheque for £902 10s., and he should close
the case of stealing a sum of £lOO under these cir-
cumstances. On Sept.-1, 1865, person named Hind -
ley entrusted to the brother of 11r. Elwyn, one of the
prosecutors, the sum of £246 13s. 2d. for the purpose
of an investment, that sum consisting of a cheque
for £146 12s. 6d. and £lOO in cash. This sum was
paid over by Mr. Elwyn either to his brother or the
prisoner at the office of Seymour and Elwyn. The
cheque had been paid in, but the cash had not in
any way been accounted for in the book of the pro-
secr.tors' firm.

Mr. Henry V. S. Elwyn was examined, and proved
that he was brother of Mr. Elwyn, of the firm of
s°3lll°llr and Elwyn, and that he had held a sum of
