HENRY PAINE. I am a carpenter . I was working at an unfinished house, No. 279, Regent-street . On the 8th of February I went to dinner at twelve o'clock; I locked the door, and took the key - I left my tools on the bench in the under ground kitchen; I heard an alarm while I was dining, and Mr. Atkinson brought the prisoner and my basket of tools into the cook-shop. WILLIAM ATKINSON . I am foreman to Mr. Baxter - Paine worked under me. I came down the street, and knocked at my own door, when I saw the prisoner coming out of No. 279, with the basket of tools. I asked where he got them, and he said they belonged to a young man, named Johnson, who had gone to Castle-street, to dinner. I asked him to go with me to the cook-shop, which he did - I called Paine out. Cross-examined by MR. PHILLIPS. Q. Did not he say a person gave him the tools? A. He said a person had gone out of the window, and he had taken up the tools. WILLIAM RIDDING . I am an officer. I produce the tools and the basket, which I got at the cook-shop in Castle-street; they were laying on the floor, and when I came in Paine said, "That is the man" - I took him, and as we went to the office he said he saw a man go into the house, that he followed him, and took the tools, and was going to take them to some man in the cook-shop.(Property produced and sworn to.) Prisoner's Defence. I saw a man loitering about - I watched him into three or four houses, and saw him get into this window; I followed him, and as I was going down the kitchen stairs he was in the passage, and threw the basket of tools down. I took them up, and the witness came and said, "What do you do with them?" I said a man had taken them up, and had left them there, and he desired me to take them to the cook-shop. I had not touched them before he told me. GUILTY . Aged 22. Transported for Seven Years .
