HIGHWAY ROBBERY

Henry Giblin, Edward Carr, and Mary Jane
Williams, were indicted for having assaulted and
robbed William Edward Webb, at Manchester. John
Callaghan was also indicted as a receiver, as well as
having aided and abetted in the robbery. Mr. Blair
appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. Atkinson for the
prisoners. On the night of the 22nd September last,
about half-past eleven:o'clock, the prosecutor, Mr. Webb,
was going along Deansgate, when he was accosted by the
female prisoner, whom he accompanied into an entry.
While there he felt a hand in. his pockets, and presently
the woman coughed in a peculiar manner, upon which
two men came up and attacked the prosecutor, robbing
him of his watch, eleven shillings, and his hat. The pro-
secutor, who is a young man, a draper's assistant, in
reply to a question put by Mr. Atkinson, admitted that, on
the evening in question, he had had a bottle of ginger
beer with two pennyworth of gin in it ; during the day he
might have had half a dozen glasses of ale ; was not parti-
cularly sober unless he abstained altogether, which ho
occasionally did.
Rosannah Cleary, living in Hardman-street, Manches-
ter, identified Carr and Giblin as the men who attacked
Mr. Webb in Thompson-street ; she also saw Callaghan
with prosecutor's hat, which he took into the female pri-
soner's lodgings, which was next door to the house in
which he (Callaghan) lived. From the learned counsel's
cross-examination of this witness, it transpired that she
was formerly " an unfortunate woman," and had been
tried on a charge of stealing nine sovereigns from a gen-
tleman, but was acquitted : would not swear as to the
precise number of times she had been imprisoned ; would
not swear it was not six times. .the was questioned at
considerable length, and with great tact, by Callaghan,
with a view to show that the witness herself had taken up
the prosecutor's hat. After the case bad been gone into on
