Of Verandah House, Crouch Hill, was sum-

sengers. The guard having proved identity,
and the accused's card, given up by himself,
being put in corroborative evidence, the
Magistrate asked the defendant if he had
any thing to say in reply. An attempt was
made to prove that the accused was really
the complainant, and that he had given the
card produced to the real offender; which
the Magistrate characterized an impu-

ant in the full penalty of 40 shillings.
