A great portion of the time of the court was yes-
terday occupied in inquiring into the case in which
two men, named John Terne and Thomas Triggey,
were charged with obtaining money on false pre-
tences from Anne Griffiths, the wife of a labourer,
living in Sow cs-buildings, Somers-town, the par-

Mr. GREENWOOD, who took the ‘reatest painto
sift the affair to the bottom, said the proscotrix wit.=
just the kind of person upon whom designing persons

their integrity. It was, however, discovered, on the
previous day, that the prisoners bad completely gutted
the apartment of its contents—furniture, bed-clothes.
and even the feather-beds. Not content with rifling
their own apartments, they extended their pillaging into
the adjoining ones, which they denuded of their most
valuable contents. Some idea may be formed of the
extent of the plunder, from the fact that eighty-seven
duplicates were found on their persons when arrested,
which do not comprehend anything like the amount of
property disposed of Police-constable 167 N took them
into custody.

The prisoners partly acknowledged their guilt. A
