Q._ Those are the only seven you have seen since? _A._ Yes. _Mr. Gurney._ You paid them all away? _A._ We did. _John Bilson and Thomas Northover called again._ _Mr. Gurney._ Have the goodness to look over your book, and see whether those seven were part of the two hundred that were paid to Fearn? [_The Witnesses examined them._] _Mr. Bilson._ Those seven notes were part of the property paid to Fearn on the 24th of February. _Benjamin Lance called again;_ _Examined by Mr. Gurney._ _Q._ On the 25th of February, did you give Mr. Butt a check on Prescott & Company, for L.98. 2_s._ 6_d._? _A._ On the 26th of February I did. _Q._ Is that the check? [_shewing it to the witness._] _A._ That is the check. _John Isherwood sworn;_ _Examined by Mr. Gurney._ _Q._ Are you clerk to Prescott & Company? _A._ I am. _Q._ Look at that check, did you pay that? _A._ I did. _Q._ On what day? _A._ The date of it the 26th of February, I think. _Mr. Park._ That is an entry in your own hand-writing. _A._ It is. _Mr. Gurney._ Did you pay a 50_l._ note? _A._ Yes. _Q._ What number? _A._ No. 13,396. _Q._ Did you pay also a forty pound note? _A._ Yes, No. 6,268. _Q._ Look at that, is that the L.40. note? _A._ Yes, that is the note. _Mr. Gurney._ Mr. Miller, will you produce the L.50. note? [_Mr. Miller produced it, and it was shewn to the Witness._] _A._ This is the note. _Mr. John Seeks sworn;_ _Examined by Mr. Gurney._ _Q._ Look at that cancelled bank note for L.50. did you receive that bank note in payment from any person? _A._ I gave change for it. _Q._ On what day? _A._ I cannot exactly recollect. _Q._ About when; have you any minute on the back of it? _A._ Here are some letters here that I know it by. _Q._ To whom did you give change for it? _A._ Mr. De Berenger's servant, Smith. _Q._ The day you cannot exactly fix? _A._ I cannot. _Mr. Serjeant Best._ I submit to your Lordship, that is no evidence, until they call Smith. _Mr. Gurney._ On referring to Mr. De Berenger's memorandum book, I find "W. S. L.50." which I consider as connecting itself with this. _Mr. Park._ That book is not proved. _Mr. Gurney._ It is proved by being found in the trunk. _Mr. Park._ I object to that book being read; that is not the book which was before proved; as to that, Mr. Lavie gave some evidence of
