. I keep a public house at Mile-end. Last Monday or Tuesday fortnight the prisoner brought me a saddle: Mr. Hollis has it.</p>
<p>Q. to Hollis. The saddle you received of the witness Bert is that the saddle you lost?</p>
<p>Hollis. Yes.</p>
<p>Bert. The prisoner used my house a month or six weeks before; he said he had found a saddle in Epping-forest, and asked me to buy it; I said yes, if he brought it and came honestly by it; I saw no more of him for a month after. On Monday fortnight I met him; he asked me how I did, and said I never brought the saddle to you, I will bring it in a few days; he came on Tuesday morning and brought it, and I bought it in the public tap-room Mr. Hollis came and owned it, and I gave it him; the prisoner said that was the saddle he spoke of a month or six weeks before.</p>
<p>Prisoner's Defence.</p>
<p>I found the saddle at the end of the road in the public street on Tuesday morning.</p>
