MARLBORO UGH-STREET.
EXTRAORDINARY AND DOUBTFUL CllAßGE.—Francisco
de Caplain, a well- dressed foreign seaman, who gave the
address Sabloniere Hotel, Leicester-square, and Johnson's
Coffee-house, Ratcliffe-highway, was charged before Mr.
Tyrwhitt as follows :
John Smith, a private of the 2d battalion of Coldstream
Guards, said that last night, about nine o'clock, he was in
the New Inn, Edgware-road, when the prisoner came in
and spoke to him about some of the men in his battalion.
He asked the prisoner to drink, and the prisoner asked
him. Shortly after the prisoner said that as he was going
to Sloane-street, .and it was in the same direction he (pro-
secutor) was going, he would walk across Hyde-park with
him. They went into the park together, and when they
had got about half way across the prisoner asked him to
sit down, and then he.struck him in the face. As the
prisoner promised not to repeat his conduct he went on
with him till they get to the Gun publichouse in Knights-
bridge, where the prisoner paid for some beer. He told
the prisoner that he should like some tobacco, and the pri-
soner paid for some and afterwards for some more beer,
and as they were going along near Lowndes-square the
prisoner again assaulted him. He then seized the prisoner,
and held him till a man came up. The man asked him
what was the matter, and on his telling him the man said
he was a police officer, and took the prisoner into custody.
The prisoner said that he spoke to the soldier in the
publichouse as he know some of the men in his battalion,
and afterwards paid for some ale and tobacco for the sol-
dier. He walked across the park with him, and when they
got near a square (Lowndes-square) the soldier said he
wanted money to get beer in the morning. He gave the
soldier some, but because he did not give him enough he
threw it into the road, and said he would give him in
charge for assaulting him. He positively denied doing
anything of the kind.
M'Kenzie, 66 B, said, that seeing the soldier and prisoner
struggling together he went up and the soldier gave him into
custody. On the way to the station the prisoner said, "If I
had committed such an act why did you afterwards con-
tinue so long in my company ?" and the soldier made no
reply. The prisoner said the soldier had demanded money
of him, the and soldier said "Yes, and you gave me 2id
and I throw it in the road." He found on the prisoner the
soldier's address, and on the soldier the prisoner's address.
Mr. Tyrwhitt committed the prisoner, who reserved his
defence, for trial.
