Tried at the Old Bailey, 14 Jan 1824. 339. ROSINA COXHEAD was indicted for stealing, on the 18th of December , two gowns, value 10 s.; and five yards of stuff, value 5 s. , the goods of Eleanor Lee . ELEANOR LEE . I live in Norfolk-court, Saffron-hill . The prisoner lodged in the same room as me. On the 18th of December I went out, leaving her in the room with my three children. I returned in an hour and a half, and missed two gowns and five yards of stuff from my box, which were safe when I went out. She had told me she was going out for some broken victuals - she did not return, but on the Sunday following I met her in Fleet-market, and gave her in charge. One gown was made up, and the other not. (Property produced and sworn to). THOMAS M'CLELLAN. I am an officer. I received her in charge, and found two duplicates on her for this property inside her stocking, next to her feet. ABRAHAM SHUTE . I am shopman to Mr. Morrit, pawnbroker. On the 18th of December the prisoner, I believe, pawned a gown. JOSEPH SARSON . I am a pawnbroker. On the 18th of December a gown was pawned with me. Prisoner's Defence. I bought the tickets. GUILT. Aged 16. Transported for Seven Years .
