PGilrp Raby was indi&ed capitally, for healing
45 yards of cotton linen, value sos. the property
of Richard Dixon.
The Profecutor hated, that the Prifoner lived
with him in the capacity of fervant. On the 4th
of September, he was informed by his foreman,
that the prifoner had been deteiled in fecreting
fome cotton linen, and which had been taken from
him: the Prifinter had afterwards abfeonded,and
was not taken till the Gth of December. The
foreman law the prifoner, with the piece of cot-
ton in the warehoufe ; and fufpedling he meant to
take it away, he watched him, and law him come
through the (hop with fomething tied up in his
apron, on which he apprized a tellow-fervant uf
the circumllances, who immediately Itopt him,
and untying the apron, he found the cotton--ci.n-
cealed in it ; the prifoner begged they would not
inform hi: mailer of it, and he was !offered to go
home to breakfatt ; he immediately ablconded.
The Prifoner faitl in his defence, that Mr. Dixon
had allowed him it, take things for his own ufe
out of the warehonfe, and he *as to pay as it fat-
ed him ; that he never directly or indirectly de-
frauded Mr. Dixon of a farthing.
Mr. Dixon, on being called again, denied ever
having given permiffion to his fervants to that cf-
fAi. The Jury found the prifoner Guilty of heal-
ing to the value of 395.
And five were actinitted, among whom were,
Edward Brooks, and Yoh* Martin Rawfilre, the
former for healing three,pigs, the lappet ty of
Wil-
liam Hanlon, and the latter fur receiving them,
knowing they were Rolen.
Mr. Flatiron, the praNcutor, Rated, that the pigs
which were mentioned in the indiftment were aulen
from his premifes at Bow, that he had informa-
tion of the thief being an inmate at a public-houfe
in the Whitechaperßoad, whither he went and
apprehended him. He laid, that when he fira made
enquiry for the,prifoner Brooks, the other prifoner
who was the proprietor of the houfe, denied hint,
but at length having found the pigs in an out-
hook belonging to the publican, then he admitted
that Brooks Was in the houfe, and delivered him
over to the profecutor and his officers.
The pigs were killed, bet not on Ramfhire's
prentifes, they were found in a Rate for drain,
and identified by the proficutor.
