1259. LAWRENCE BEENON was indicted for embezzlement.
JANE BAILEY . I am the wife of Thomas Bailey. The prisoner was in my employ occasionally, to carry home linen that I had to wash—on Saturday evening, 15th June, I sent him with a basket of linen to Mrs. Ramsden—he was to receive 3s. for it—he did not come back, or account for it—he afterwards said he had lost it—he did not bring back the basket that I sent the clothes in—I had employed him so before, and he brought the money correctly.
MARY RAMSDEN . I am the wife of Joseph Ramsden. The prisoner came to me with the clothes, and received three shillings from me for Mrs. Bailey.
RICHARD BAYLEY (police-sergeant, P 148). I took the prisoner—he said he lost the money.
NOT GUILTY .
