JAMES WOOLGAR . I am a policeman. On the 10th of August, about a quarter after five o'clock in the morning, I saw the prisoners within 300 yards of the Old Swan public-house, going as from the house—they each had a bundle—I stopped them, and found the bundles contained the articles stated—I asked what they had there—they said at first dirty clothes, and then said it was two bottles of wine—I took them into custody—I said, "Do you call these dirty clothes?"—they then said they had bought them at a public-house in Jew's-row, and were going to a fight to sell them that day—I took them to the station-house. SARAH ANN GOULD . I am the prosecutrix's daughter. I know the bar door was locked the night before. (Property produced and sworn to.) DUDLEY*— GUILTY . Aged 18. WALLBANK*— GUILTY . Aged 18.
