yself, but I supposed it was so (the witness produced the Napoleons.)
_Q._ Did you hear him tell the coachman where to drive to?
_A._ I did not.
_Q._ Do you know the name of the coachman or the waterman?
_A._ Yes, I do.
_Q._ What is the name of the coachman?
_A._ Crane.
_Q._ Do you know the waterman's name?
_A._ I am not rightly sure; I think they call him Bob. I know his person
very well.
_Q._ How was this gentleman dressed, that you drove to town?
_A._ He was dressed with a dark fur cap--a round cap, and with white
lace, of some sort, round it; whether it was gold or silver, I cannot
say; he had a red coat on underneath his outer coat.
_Q._ What sort of a coat was his outer coat?
_A._ I think it was a dark coat, a kind of brown coat--but I will not
swear to that.
_Q._ You saw a red coat underneath it?
_A._ Yes, I saw a red coat down as far as the waist; I did not see the
skirts of it.
_Q._ Did you make any particular observation upon the red coat?
_A._ No, I think it was turned up with yellow; but I should not like to
swear that.
_Q._ Had it any thing upon it?
_A._ It had a star of some sort upon it, but I was not close enough to

_Q._ Was that all that you observed of his dress?
_A._ No, not quite all, I think; I think upon the outer coat there was
fur, a kind of white fur, the same as off a rabbit's skin.
_Q._ But that you do not recollect with certainty?
_A._ No, I should not like to swear to that.
_Q._ As you conversed so much with that gentleman, do you think you
should know him again?
_A._ I should know him in a moment.
_Q._ Have you seen him since you have been in Court?
_A._ Yes, that is the gentleman (_pointing to De Berenger_.)
_Q._ Have you any doubt that is the person?
_A._ Not at all.
_Q._ Since the day you drove him, have you seen him before to-day?
_A._ I have.
_Q._ How often?
_A._ Only once.
_Q._ Where was that?
_A._ In King-street, Westminster, in a room there.
_Q._ Did you equally well know him then?
_A._ I did the moment I saw him.
_Q._ Had you ever the least doubt about him?
_A._ Never the least in the world; I knew him as soon as I saw him.
_Cross-examined by Mr. Richardson._
_Q._ Have you not been told this morning in what part of the Court he
sat?
_A._ No, I never enquired about it; I looked round when I came in and
found him out in a moment; I dare sa
