the habit of assembling every night at a house four

within a small *distance of the place, 'he bad the',
precaution to send two of his men before to guard

OLD BAILEY.

SEVENTH DAV‘--WEDNESDAY. SEPT. 21.

William was indieled for stealing a (ran.
tit); (451 h.) of Spanish wool, the property of Erna.
• noel 1)e la 'Torre. _ _

It apr.'ared In evidence, that the clerk t.,f the
Prosecutor discovered that the wool in the ware.
house was always below the amount of the account
sales, and short of the quantity sent from Spain ;
the usual weight was zoolb. per bag of this species
of Spanish wool, which was that of the finest bort,
it being that of the best Leonesa wool, and much
sUperior to that of Segovia. That in consequence
of suspicions haVing fallen on the prisoner, who
bad been employed in the Prosecutor's warehouse
for abc,tit a twelvemonth, but recently discharged,.
his lodgings were searched. The officer who came
with the search.warr .I.t asked the prisOner, whether
he had any Spanish wool ? He said he had not, but
there were immediately found two bundles of ir, the
one tied up in an apron, the rrther in an handker-
chief, and he said he did not know there was any
there, for that he thought these bundles were
cloaths tied up he was no dealer in 'Wool. He sold
a pack of wool to a person of the name of Staunton,
that was the wool in question, or rather he em-
ployed this person to provide him a ptirchaser of it,
a Mr. Hughes, No. 30, Cloth Fair, woollen.draper,
whobought—this. wool for five shillings a pound,
when `the _:market wholesale price was 6s. 644... a
p.nar (hot time. Stmustnn hail, onepounti or

hi, trouble, in procuring a purchaser. money
was paid to the prisoner ON the day of the sale of
the wool, which was the fifth of August. A.cheque
on the banker, of the date of that day, for 171. of
the money, and another for the following day for
251. part of the money being kept until the wool
was weighed, for it was sold by sample, and the
weight of the bulk was not known at the time of
the sale. It appeared also, that when the prisoner
came home from his maoter's warehouse he fre-
quently brought with him bundles and parcels, what
they contained there was no evidence of, but he
was in the habit of bringing hdme such bundles, so
much so, that it excited the suspicion of one of the

prisoner's neighbours ; who, when she saw a cart
standing at the prisoner's door, went to him and ae.
cused him of having stolen wool in that cart. He
said he wished she had told him so before (what he
meant by that was not explained) ; on which a per.
son, who was with the prisoner, said he had
bought it and paid for it, which was not true, for
the wool was then in its transit from the house of
the prisoner, which is in King's Rom], Islington,
to the house of Mr. Hughes, Cloth Fair. The fact
of the stealing was not brought home to the prisoner,
nor could any one prove the precise quantity lost by
the Prosecutor ; it only appeared that the deficiency
in the bags was general, and that this was precisely
the same sort of wool as that which was missing out
of the Prosecutor's warehouse ; and also, that seve.
rat pieces of bags, of. precisely the same kind as
those in which this species of wool is constantly
packed up in Spain, were found in the possession of
the prisoner, but. the Spanish mark did not appear,
the part where it should be was torn off.--When
the prisoner was asked how he came by ,these bags,
he said they were given to him by Mr. Jones, the
foreman of the Prosecutor's warehouse. The wool
which the prisoner had thus sold, was proved to have
been unpacked wool.
Mr. Kr,ow LYS, leading Counsel for the prisoner,
contended, there was no evidence to go to the Jury'in
this case : that the principle, and the binding prin.
ciple of Law, was, that no felony could be imputed
to any individual, before a felony was proved to
have been .committed. Here no felony had been.
proved to have been committed, for nobody swore
that any wool was stolen out of the Prosecutor's
warehouse ; it was only proved that the bags were
lighter than appeared in the account sales ; that
might be either owing to plunder in Spain, or in'
the River,-.or somewhere before the goody were de.
posited iu the Prosecutor's warehouse.—As-to the
bags found in the prisoner's dwelling, he had said
th:.r he received them of Mr. Jones, the foreman of
the 'Prosecutor's warehouse, and that assertion the
prosecutor was hound to admit robe true, because he
had made it evidence by proving what the prisoner.
said on that occasion ; for if one part of what a man
says at one time be evidence, the rest is ; fur if
any thing of this sort is proved against a man, the
whole of it must betaken; nor was there any im.
-propriety in this ttle, for if what the prisoner said
was false, Jones might have been called to prove it
to be false. Fur these reasons he submitted, that
there was nothing against the prisoner to go to
the Jury in this case, but that he was entitled to his
acquittal at once.
The COMMON SPRIEANT said, that perhaps it
was not a very strong case, but he thought it ought
to go to the Jury to be disposed of by them.
Eleven respcdable persons appeared on behalf of
the prisoner, and they gave him an excellent clia-
rader.
The. Comstotst SERI/ANT summed up the evi.
iktice:HThe Jury, after a short deliberation), found,

gasper Renfidd was indieted fir stealing, on the
25th of July, four pairs of stocking's, three shirts,
three shifts, and other articles, the property of
James Gurney.
The only Jirct evidence against the Prisoner
was a boy bet v.een nine and ten years old, the son
of the Prosecutor, who stated, that on the fore.
noon of the day laid in the indiCiment, the Prisoner
came to his father's house, and seeing him, the
Witness, he said, '' He came from Mrs. Meyrick's
4their wadter.woman) for the. things, which the boy
gave hint, the articles specified in the indictment ;
his father was out' at th.t time : the Prisoner said he
should call again for the under-sheet. The boy, it
appeared, had known something of the Prisoner
before, he was a schoolfellow of his elder brother.
When he had delivered up the clothes, he thought he
had done wrong, and followed the boy to some dis.
twice; the Prisoner observing alit., gave him a half-
penny to go back fur the sheet ; he did not, but at.
tempted to. follow the Prisoner, hoWever he soon
