they did-insert in the warrant words relative to the notice
of bail.
Mr., Brtoll6llA3l was of opinion that the words need
not be inserted in the warrant, 'becaute as soon as ever he
was taken, he must give notice of bail to the magistrate
before, he could he discharged.
Mr. Justice PARK.--Under such circumstances, 1 shall
certainly leave it to the discretion of.the magistrates; and
I' have no' doubt that they , will exert all due caution
upon the occasion. Then turning to Mr. Hopkins, " The
warrant does not want my signature, we are sitting here
in Balieo."
After the case was thus ended, Mr: COLTMAN, who
was one of the Counsel for the defendant, came into Court,
Mr. Justice Park addressed him, and said, " your temp.
niuttleas are forfeited,. Mr. Coltman, you need not come."
The warrant was immediately issued, and placed with-
out delay hi the hands of a police-officer. It is not ex-
pected that Wakefield will be apprehended, as he had at
least twelve hours start of the prosecutor. It is confi-
dently asserted that William Wakefield left Lancaster in
female attire, and in the company of two ladies.
