JAMES NOBLE . I took the prisoner into custody. JOHN RALPH LAWSON . I am a pawnbroker, and live in Ratcliff-highway. I took in this sheet of the prisoner, on the 1st of October, in the name of Mary Smith.(Property produced and sworn to.) Prisoner's Defence. If I had done it with an intention of wronging her, should I not have taken something of more value? I was distressed for a trifle of money - I told her I should take it out the next morning, and she was satisfied. GUILTY . Aged 38. Transported for Seven Years
