he had displayed in tracing the prisoner and leading to the
recovery of so large au amount of property. Acting on this
recommendation, he should order him to receive a reward
of £2 for his exemplary conduct.
Sentence. was Ilion dvforred until next sessions.
James Cartermale was indicted for stealing a quantity of
plated harness furniture from Mr. Moore, his master.
Mr. Metcalfe (instructed by Mr. Vann) prosecuted ; Mr.
Ribton (instructed by Mr. Maynard, of the firm of Beard
and Maynard), defended.
The case occupied several hours, and a great number of
witnesses were examined, but the facts are briefly these:—
The prosecutor is a saddlers' ironmonger, carrying on busi-
ness in Market-street, Finsbury, and the prisoner, who was
considered to be a young man of great respectability and
good family, was in his employ, and lodged at his house.
Some time siace the grandson of Mr. Moore was detected in
robbing him, and on that occasion the prisoner proved the
identification of the property. This man was afterwards
sentenced to four months' imprisonment, as he said, for
picking up a purse in the Borough-road and not restoring
it to its owner. Subsequently it seemed that a connexion
sprung up between him and the prisoner, and the latter
managed to abstract from the stock goods that were sold by
the grandson, they dividing the proceeds between them.
After the grandson came out of prison he made a commu-
nication to his mother, also in the service of the prosecutor,
and one evening was appointed by the prisoner that ho
should meet him with more of the prosecutor's property for
the purpose of again sharing the proceeds. The police were
then put on the alert, and accordingly the prisoner was
detected leaving the house with some of the prosecutor's
property upon him, and he was then given into custody.
The grandson was called as a witness, and he minutely de-
tailed all the transactions in which the prisoner and him-
self had been jointly engaged, and how they divided the
spoil between them.
Mr. Ribton made a very able defence on behalf of the
prisoner, and called several highly-respectable witnesses,
who gave him a very excellent character, extending ever
a long period of years.
The Assistant-Judge summed up the evidence.
The Jury, after a short consultation, returned a verdict
of guilty, but recommended the prisoner to mercy on ac-
count of his previous good character.
The Assistant-Judge sentenced him to be imprisoned
and kept to hard labour for 12 months.
