The Manchester Courier 10/03/1832. Described as 'an antiquated adept at passing bad money' passed a forged half crown at Liverpool paying for cream cheese. Death sentence reprieved. She had previously been imprisoned at Manchester for the same, 2 years prior. At sentencing she complained to the constable at the bar that she was owed money that had been taken off her then, the judge ignored her!
