John Morton and Henry Hunt were chargaiwityi

I and, upon several other counts, with having inclined
penalties to the amount of £6OO. The latter dcfeal
ant alone appeared.
B. F. Gardner, an Officer of the Excise, stated tax,
on the 17th September he discovered, in White Han.
place, Kennington, a complete and extensive soap.
manufactory, with apparatus and a large quantity ef
imperfectly formed soap and some materials,
whole of which he seized. He was assaulted upon Itt
occasion by a man known by the name of hiak.j,.
From the evidence adduced, the Counr expressed,
themselves satisfied that Mr. Hunt had not been et
gaged in the undertaking.
Mr. Hunt was then sworn, and examined as a nit.
ness. He said that he met the defendant, John 31ot.
ton (whom he knew some time since, and who was
known in Lambeth by the name of Irish AGO, soml
after the seizure had been made. The witness was ek
tremely angry with him for making use of his name
(in taking the premises where the soatkmanufactory
was discovered), when Morton asked him in reply,
what occasion he had to be angry, since there were
more Henry Hunts than one?
The COURT said, this was an implied acknowledg.
ment on the part of Morton, that he was the °via
of the premises ; they, therefore, pronounced jedg.
ment generally on all the counts against Job Mor-
ton, and condemned the apparatus and goods fond
upon the premises. •
