WILLIAM HOLMAN. I am a baker , and live in Lower Thames-street, in the parish of St. Dunstan, East . On the 31st of March, about ten o'clock in the morning, I was at home; I opened the shop at seven, and saw my till safe about ten o'clock when I went up one pair of stairs to breakfast; it then contained a 1l. bank note, a sovereign, a half-sovereign, 2 half-crowns, and about 30s. in silver - there were more that ten-shilling pieces, and six sixpences, and 10s. in copper or more; I came down from breakfast in three quarters of an hour, and went into the bakehouse; I saw a young man at the door, who gave me information; I then missed the till and money from behind the counter; the prisoner is a stranger - he was pursued and brought back in a quarter of an hour, and my till produced, and all the money, except the sovereign - he said he found it at the corner of Harp-lane. WILLIAM MOSELEY . I am a plumber, and live at No. 9, Harp-lane. At a quarter past ten o'clock I came out of my door, which is near Thames-street, and saw the prisoner close by my door with the till - a young man came up, and we went to Holman, who missed his till; I ran and caught him in Rood-lane - he had all the money in his hat- as I brought him back he threw a 1l. note out of his pocket; I had it taken up - he then threw a tin box away, dropped some money, and I picked up a half-sovereign. WILLIAM HOLMAN . The money brought back was a 1l. note, a half-sovereign, 5s. in silver, and 10s. in copper - the two half-crowns were found upon him. WILLIAM MOSELEY . When I took him into the shop he said he found the till; I found Mr. Lucas's clerk had found the till - he delivered it to Holman. JOSEPH DAVIS . I am a street-keeper, and took the prisoner in charge. I found two half-crowns, ten shillings, and three sixpences on him; he said he found the till; Holman gave me the 1l. note; he said the 16s. 6d. was his own, but he said he had had nothing to eat that morning, and was very hungry. WILLIAM HOLMAN . I have written on the note the name of the person who paid it to me. Prisoner's Defence. I found the till at the corner of the lane; I was going to Tower-street, where my father works. GUILTY - DEATH . Aged 18.
