ed by me as clerk to Mr. Smallbone. _Lord Ellenborough._. In all L.450. _A._ In all L.450. _Q._ L.250. in these bank notes? _A._ No, L.450. besides these bank notes. _Lord Ellenborough._ The L.450. is to be added to these bank notes? _Mr. Scarlett._ The witness was not present when Mr. Butt lent the L.200. I was about to shew, that besides the L.450. that Mr. Smallbone lent, Lord Cochrane wanted L.200. more, and that he went out to get it. _Lord Ellenborough._ Did you see the L.200. lent to Lord Cochrane? _A._ No. _Q._ How do you know it was lent? _A._ Because I was told so by Lord Cochrane. _Lord Ellenborough._ Then it comes to nothing? _Mr. Scarlett._ He knows the fact that he wanted the L.200. You advanced L.450. yourself? _A._ Yes, I did. _Lord Ellenborough._ In gold or bank notes? _A._ In bank notes. _Q._ In what description of bank notes? _A._ The money was lent in fact by Mr. Smallbone, and he made up the difference; it is not usual to pay in bank notes, and we made it up in checks; his Lordship had left his money at the west end of the town. _Mr. Scarlett._ You advanced his Lordship L.450.? _A._ Yes. _Q._ Was that all that he wanted, or did he want more? _A._ No, he wanted L.200. more. _Lord Ellenborough._ This advance must all be in paper? _Mr. Scarlett._ Yes, my Lord, it is not material to my purpose to shew how Mr. Butt made this advance to him. _Lord Ellenborough._ If it was a loan and you rely upon it as such, you must shew in what it was? _A._ The L.450. was in a check. _Lord Ellenborough._ Then that check must be shewn. _Mr. Scarlett._ Mr. Butt was not present, was he? _A._ Not that I know of. _Q._ At what time Lord Cochrane gave these two L.100. notes to Mr. Butt you do not know, do you? _A._ No. _Q._ But it was not by Lord Cochrane's desire you took them to the Bank. _A._ No; by Mr. Butt's. _Mr. John Bilson sworn;_ _Examined by Mr. Gurney._ _Q._ Look at these two L.100. notes; on the 24th of February; were those two notes of L.100. each brought to the Bank to be exchanged for one pound notes? _A._ They were entered for payment in the Bank on that day. _Q._ Have you there the book in which your own entries are made, or those which are made by Mr. Northover? _A._ I have the book in which is my own hand-writing. _Q._ What notes did you pay this in? _A._ One pound notes. _Q._ You make the entries, an
