One Mr. Abel Bethsorrel was Arraigned for taking away a great parcel of Goods out of a Woman s house in St. Martins , in the day time , and the Witnesses swore it roundly; but when the Prisoner came to make his defence, produced a Bill of Sale under her hand and Seal, for those and all other her Goods to 20l. which she could not disown, so that the prosecution was declared to be wholly malicious, and he honourably acquitted .
