MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.

Yesterday John Ramsay, alias Driver, Thomas Clarle,
alias Smart, Charles Hill, and John Gof, were indicted
for a conspiracy, to obtain from 'Thomas Fitzhugh
various sttml of money, under the foil pretence of
charging him with the commission of an unnatural
offence.

The prosecutor stated, that on the 2lth a Febru-
ary he was a servant in the employment of Colonel
Read, of Harley-street. About nine in the evening
he was going down Oxford-street, to purchase some
grocery for his master, and as he walked along, he
observed Goff, Clarke, and Ramsay, standing toge-
ther ; they said something to him as he passed, to
which lie made no reply, but went on to the grocer's,
from whence he proceeded towards Cavendish-square,
where, having occasion to stop, Ratnsay came up,
and after some trilling observations, seized him in a
most indecent manner, threatening him if he did not
give him ElO, he would have him taken up for com-
mitting an atrocious otferice. Witness instantly turn-
ed round, and knocked him down. He then called
the watch ; but Ramsay escaped. On the ensuing
d ty Witness quitted the service of Colonel Read, and
took lodoiags in Charles-street, Middlesex Hospital,
whither Ramsay came, with a constable, and had
him apprehended, conveyed him to Marlborough.
street, and there charged him with an assault of the
•most abominable nature. Witness was consequently
sent to prison. While there the defendant Hill came
to him, as if from a friend, and offered to procure
him bail, and also to intercede with the prosecutor
Ramsay. Witness gave him a one-pound note, and
in two days afterwards bail was procured, and he was
set at liberty. Witness then went to the service of
Lady Clonmell. On the 14th of March, Goff, Hill,
and Clarke, came to his mistress's house, and told
him if he did not give them • £lO, Ramsay would
r prosecute him, and there was little doubt of his being
convicted of the crime alledged against him. Wit-
ness, much alarmed at the threat, said he.could not
give them any such sum, as he was without money.
They then swore they must have it, and used the
grossest epithets towards him. Witness
,at length
borrowed from a fellow-servant a one-pound note,
which lie gave to them, and they then went away ;
but Goff and Clarke returned on the ensuing evening,
and repeated their demands, adding, if they did not
get the money, they would not let the prosecutor re-
main in that place, or any other place in town. Wit-
ness, however, did not comply with their request, and
they left the house. In cooseqnence of these threats,
witness was obliged to leave the service of Lady
Clonmell, and went from thence to Lady Fordyce,
with whom he had before lived for a year and eight
months. But here again he was discovered by die
prisoners, who repeated their threats. On the 26th
of April he met Hill in Holborn, who asked if he had
got any money for him? Witness said he had not,
when Hill observed, if he, the witness, followed his
advice, he need not want cash. He then advised
him to pawn his mistress's plate, and on refusal being .
given, he proposed his stealing wine from the cellar,
and giving it to him to dispose of. To those infamous
propositions, however, the prosecutor would not
agree, and finding his character was likely to be de-
stroyed, he informed a cOnstableolamed Cobham, of
the facts, and the prisoners were apprehended, at a
moment when they were accusing the plaintiff of the
crime with which they charged him, and threatening
to prevent him from remaining in any place.
John Cobham said he l:ved in Davis-street, ikrke-
ley-squ.sre. The prosecutor came to him on the 28th
of April, and informed him of the attecioei conduct
of the prisoners. While they were talking, Goff and
Clarke passed by arm in arm. The prosecutor went
towards home, and the moment GofF and Hill saw
him they ran after him, calling him by the most infa-
mous names. The prosecutor came back to witness's
house, whither Goff and Hill Fursued him, still re-
peating their charges, and remarking that unless he
gave them nine pounds, they would not let him re-
main in any place whatever. .Clarke then spit in his
face, and witness secured him for that assault. He
afterwards apprehended the other prisoners, when
Hill confessed that he had received the third of a
pound note fOr services he had done the prisoner.
The Chairman summed up the evidence with the
greatest perspicuity, and the Jury, after a short Con-
sideration, returned a verdict of Guilty ag.tiast the
four prisoners.
They were well known as persons of the most atro-
cious character.—Judgment respited.
