I live on Saffron-hill. On the 17th of May I met the prisoner in Farringdon-street—I treated him—I had a sovereign and a half and a half-crown, in a silk handkerchief—I told him I should go and buy a hat, he said he had one to dispose of—I said, "Fetch it;" he did so, and it was split across the top—I said I did not like it—he asked 1s. for it—I gave him 8d. for it—I took a half-crown out of the handkerchief, and gave it to him, and said, "Go, and get change for this, and bring it back"—he did so—the rest of the money was then in the handkerchief, and I put it and the rest of the money into my trowsers-pocket—he accompanied me to the Nottingham Arms beer-shop, and treated me there—I was rather the worse for liquor—I knew what I was doing when I gave him the half-crown—I had the money when I went to the Nottingham Arms—after that I went home and missed my handkerchief from my pocket—I have never seen it since. Prisoner. Q. Did you not give 10d. for the hat? A. No—I put the change of the half-crown into my coat-pocket—there was no other man in my company—I did not come into the Nottingham Arms with my trowsers undone, and tell you to button them up. FRANCIS GWILLIN . I live at Bishop's Head-court. I was at the Nottingham Arms when the prosecutor and prisoner came there—they had four or five pints of ale—the prosecutor was very drunk indeed—the prisoner appeared to have been drinking, but was comparatively sober—the prosecutor went out and came back—the prisoner said, "Don't be a beast; let me button up your breeches," and the prosecutor assented to it—I saw the prisoner place his hand at the waistband of the prosecutor's trowsers, and the other hand under, as if working something out—he then sat down on the seat, and I saw the prisoner put his hand round the prosecutor—Mr. Hopkins made a noise on the table for me to notice it—the prisoner then went out, and then Mr. Hopkins said something to me. Prisoner. Q. You saw me take it out of the prosecutor's right pocket? A. No—I saw you take nothing out—I never said it was a red handkerchief. ROWLAND HOPKINS . I was at the Nottingham Arms. Gwillin called my attention to the prisoner—I saw the prisoner with a red silk handkerchief in his left hand—I saw him button the prosecutor's trowsers up—I made a noise with my pipe on the table to make my friend notice it—the prisoner sat a very short time, and went away—the prosecutor left a little after—he had been drinking, but was capable of taking care of himself—the prisoner was sober—the prosecutor called the prisoner Bill—I did not tell the prosecutor—he stayed about ten minutes after. EDWARD WILLIAM WORSTER . I am barman at the Red Lion, Strand. About half-past twelve o'clock on the Friday night, the prisoner came and remained half an hour or three quarters, treating a number of persons—he spent four or five shillings—shortly after, he asked me to mind 18s. for him—he came the next day for 12s. which he had, and the remainder of the money he was going to renew his license with—he was in the habit of minding cabs for cabmen.. THOMAS SMITH (City police-constable, No. 270.) I took the prisoner—I found a new pair of boots on him, and a shirt—he had bad a shirt washed, and on the following Monday he said he gave 1s. for it. Prisoner. Q. Did I not tell you to go to Leather-lane, and Blackman-street? A. No, you said Fetter-lane—you said you bought the boots in Blackman-street, and there was no shoemaker's shop there. Prisoner's Defence. The prosecutor asked me to have a drop of beer; I thanked him; we drank that beer, and a friend of his was sitting beside him, who said, "My friend is in want of a hat." I said I had an old one; I got it, and showed it him; 1 asked 1s. for it; he offered 10d.; I said, "I will spend the odd 2d., and you give me 8d. for it;" he gave me a half-crown; then we had some more gin and beer; at half-past ten o'clock we went to the Nottingham Arms, and there were several persons whom he asked to drink; he went out and came in again; I said, "You might have buttoned your trowsers;" he said, "Button them for me;" I did, and we had a glass or two more of ale; I then went out, down the Strand, and having this money saved up, unknown to any one, I redeemed a few things, and left the 18s. in the landlord's hand; I went the next day to Blackman-street, and bought the boots for 3s. 6d.; I then went to Leather-lane, and gave 1s. to Mrs. Wright to mend and wash my shirt.

| 1135 |  | English Cricketer Ted Dillon 1913 Vanity Fair Cricket Print of Ted Dillon. Great grandson of Elizabeth Wooster of West Wycombe. ◦He was an English cricketer. He played first-class cricket predominantly for Kent County Cricket Club between 1900 and 1913, captaining the side from 1909 until his retirement. Educated at Rugby School, and later Oxford University, he was described as being "very free in style", and being a strong driver of the ball. He earned his cricket blue in his first year at Oxford, scoring 143 in the match against Cambridge. His performances for Kent were also useful, as he finished second in the batting averages to Jack Mason. He spent a large proportion of time in business however, somewhat restricting his first-class appearances. However, in a thirteen-year career he managed to amass in excess of 10,000 runs at an average of just over 28. He was a fine rugby player as well as cricketer. His rugby career brought him four international caps; two against Wales, one against Scotland and one against Ireland, in 1904 and 1905. He played as a three-quarter for his club side Blackheath. |
