to be sent to Northfleet, at a particular hour, to bring persons to
Dartford, and to have four horses ready to convey them to London.
Accordingly three persons, two of them, I think, described as wearing a
military dress, and white cockades in their hats, come in that chaise to
Dartford, from whence, with another chaise and four horses, the horses
ornamented with laurel, and the men inside with white cockades in their
hats, they drive at a quick pace to London, through some of the
principal streets of London, over Blackfriars Bridge, and there
directing to be set down at the same place, the Marsh-gate at Lambeth,
they get into a hackney coach, and no more is heard of them. This seems
to have been a counterpart--another branch of the plot, which was put
into execution about two hours after the first chaise had arrived with
the defendant De Berenger, and in that these persons are proved to have
been concerned whom I have stated.

Immediately upon the arrival of De Berenger at the house of Lord
Cochrane in Green-street, dressed as I have described, in the dress in
which he was first observed at Dover, he appears to have dispatched a
note to Lord Cochrane, who was not then at home, and that note is
delivered to my Lord Cochrane at a place somewhere near Snowhill, where
Lord Cochrane was at the time. What the contents of that note were, as
the note has not itself been produced, we have no evidence. Upon that my
Lord Cochrane immediately returns home in a coach. There is no doubt but
the defendant De Berenger was then at the house of my Lord Cochrane, and
there, before he leaves the house, with the privity and in the presence
of my Lord Cochrane, he changes the uniform which he wore at the time,
and in which he is proved to have entered clothed, and puts on a black
coat of Lord Cochrane's; he exchanges his military cap for a round hat
of Lord Cochrane's likewise, in the house, and then he gets into the
hackney coach which had brought Lord Cochrane, and goes away in that
dress, and in that coach, and on that same day, which is Monday the 21st
of February, the whole of this property in the funds, or these contracts
for stock in the funds (of which it is not now necessary to state the
particular sums) which was held by Lord Cochrane, by Mr. Cochrane
Johnstone, by Mr. Butt, and by Mr. Holloway, is sold by those persons at
an advance which advance had been occasioned by that which had taken
place in the course of the early part of
