Saunders and Rowley went into several shops; they went into the prosecutor's-Reeves walked on before, and went and sat on the step of a door in Hamman-street. Rowley and Saunders came out, and went up to her - They all turned the corner, and came into the Minories again. I went up to Reeves, and asked her what she had in her apron, under her shawl? she said they were her own, and that a man gave them to her. I put her into Mr. Haywood's shop, ran round, and met the other two. I found the scarf in Reeves's apron.
