poor Irish woman in Fleet-street, on Monday evening, 'bent eight
o'clock. He asked her if she bad been to the fair, and catching
hold of her hand, drew off the finger the ring, which fitted but
loosely. She screamed, and laid hold of his coat, upon which he
struck her, and tore off her bonnet, and threw it into the road. He
was, however, seized, and searched, but the ring could not be
found. She valued it at eighteen shillings. He asserted that she
was an old acquaintance, who had drank with him frequently, and
that hefted not touched the tMg. She on the contrary declared
she never saw hint before he made this attack upon ha. There
was not a witness on either side. _ .

to leave them, they insisted that be should not pay any portion of

from them with a very high opinion of the generosity of his new

formation of the robbery to a constable named Thompson, who,
from the description given, apprehended the prisoner at the house
in Long-acre, where the prosecutor had drank with him and his
companions.

guilt or innocence of the prisoner as a participator in the crime.

11 On the t4th of April eight girls were committed to the New
Prism, Clerkenwell, from this Office, charged with having as.
exulted the aforesaid John Webb, and with haring_ been div
orderly in their conduct ; and it appears that the above lee
prisonear, supposing that Webb I was about to give evidence
againat the eight at the Sessions, determined, as they called it,
to do for him. They, therefore, began to ill treat him a week
ago, threatbned to beat him daily as long as the other girls ro
maimed in prima, and to butcher him if he became a witness ,toast
'them. Their conduct was every, day more violent ; and on Monday
they beat him on his head with two large beer cans, for which
they were locked up in the strong room, where they broke forg-
ave squares of glass, tore down the linings of the door, and so In
operated upon a wall two bricks and a half thick, that in a few
minutes, if it had not been discovered, they would have made a
way through. The prisoners attempted to justify their conduct
upon the prinple before stated ; they treated Mr. Gann', the
Magistrate, with insolence, and were remanded until Thursday.
