£lB on them, and £2 on some tea,trays. .Ne told
me he had, or expected to have, some kitchen uten-
sils, and wished me to call again and look at them ;
but, in consequence of something which occurred, I
did not go. Mr. Benham came afterwards and iden-
tified the goods which had been pledged.
A clerk from Messrs. Perring's proved that no bill
of the amount or description mentioned by the plain-
tiff had passed through their hands in October.
A Gentleman was called, who stated that he went,
in the early pail of 1821, with the plaintiff to New
York, and returned with him ; he then gave his namt
as Mitchell; he lent the plaintiff £lB, for which he
had arrested him, and for the payment of which he
was discharged from arrest on Saturday last. The
plaintiff was arrested for it last May. He had made
many endeavours to get the plaintiff's veal name, and,
ultimately succeeded by means of plaintiff's brothet.
Plaintiff told him if he called on him in Devonshire,
the money would be paid. The witness werit down;
but was not paid. Since this, the plaintiff's brother
had sent in a • bill charging the witness £lO for his
board whilst he was in Devonshire.

years. On the father's death I came to town and
