Tile male prisoner went into Mr. Skinner's shop, on the day mentioned in the indictment, to purchase a jacket and two shawls; whilst engaged in doing this the woman came in, and the man asked her if she wanted anything ; she replied she did; the other enquired if her husband would repay him, and she said he would. Property was then bought by both the prisoners to the amount of £15, and the cheque in question was given in payment, but some suspicion being excited as to its being $ forgery, it was sent to the bank, when it was ascertained that no such person as William Hanley had an account there; Mr. Clarke, the manager, immediately procured a constable, and the prisoners were taken in charge. The man said the cheque had been given to hijm by the woman, but this she denied. Another cheque was found for the same amount, near the place where they had been standing, which it appeared was also a forgery, and it also purported to be drawn by William Hanley. The jury returned a verdict of guilty, and they were "both sentenced to be transported for life, with a recommendation that their sentence should be commuted to seven years.
