Norfolk Chronicle, 23 Dec 1815.
Yesterday seven persons some respectability were arrested for vending forged stamps. For several months back the Solicitor to the Stamp Office, in concert with the Magistrates of the Head Police Office, have been employed endeavouring to trace from whence so many forged stamps got into circulation and yesterday Mr. Farrell, Chief Constable, by the magistrates order, posted parties of Officers to various parts of the town to their proceedings, and if possible, once to put stop this very injurious and fraudulent traffic. Mr. Farrell remained himself, with a party at Portobello, where he met a Mr. Joseph White, an attorney, of Camden-street, whom he brought into a public house, and searched, and in one boot was found a dye to make 10/ stamps—in the other a dye to make stamps. Mr. Farrel immediately proceeded search White's house, in which was found a number of stamps, and the frame on which the stamps are struck off. The Peace Officers were so well distributed that almost at the same period all were in custody. At the house of John and Charles Reed of New Dominick-street, a large number were found by the Officers, also in the apartments of John Fogarty, of Bolton-street. Another party found a great quantity stamps in the house another of the name of John Fogarty, of Moore-street —there also a Clerk of the Courts, of the name of Garrigan in custody. The search was so general, and the parties suspected living such considerable distance from each other, that not less than thirty-six Police Officers were employed, and we are happy to say, succeeded in the utmost expectation of the Magistrates in detecting this flagrant imposition the inland revenue.
