the night he was awoke by having his shins kicked, and found that
his first bed-fellow had fled, and been succeeded by a damsel with
her shoes and clothes on, who he had not time to interrogate h►
fore the prisoner came in, and insisted he should get up, as the bed
was her s, and if he did not do it voluntatily, be should be handed
out; on searching for his money, three sovereigns, he perceived he
had been eased of it ; but his watch, from having slipped bye
beneath the pillow under his back, still remained, and he placed 1
on the table while he dressed, when the second girl immediately
disappeared with it; but the prisoner not being equally alert, he
kept hold of her till an °Meer came to his auistance. She wm
remanded, that search might be made for her confederate.
