I am the wife of Henry Hammond, a glasscutter, in Smith-street, Chelsea. The prisoner was our servant of all-work for five weeks—I gave her this note on the afternoon of the 5th of October, to get change—she returned with it and said she could have change in two or three hours—she came for it again afterwards and I gave it her—she went away, and I did not see her again till she was in custody—I had hired her by the month—she took her clothes away with her.
