came to the Old Briley about ten of the Clock in order to give Evidence

against the said Defendant and waited till one of the Clock in the Afternoon

the same some of whom informed this Deponent that the sd. Deft had

been acquitted for Want of his appearing against her about Eleven of the

this Deponent saith that though he attended in the Sessions House Yard

all the time aforesaid yet he did not hear his Name called and verily

believes that the same arose from the Hurry and Confusion that was

occasioned by the Trial of Mr. Sutton and saith that the said Defendants being

</

acquitted as aforesaid was a great Surprize upon this Deponent and that he

did not neglect to appear against the said Defendant with any View to

favour the said Defendant and most humbly hopes that this Court will
