t. _Q._ Did the gentleman get out there? _A._ Yes. _Q._ Did you hear whom he asked for? _A._ He asked for Colonel or Captain somebody, I did not hear the name, and they said he was gone to breakfast in Cumberland Street. _Q._ What did the gentleman say then? _A._ The gentleman asked if he could write a note to him. _Q._ Did he go in? _A._ Yes, he went into the parlour. _Q._ Were you discharged then? _A._ Yes, the gentleman gave me four shillings before he went in, and I said, I hoped he would give me another shilling: he took out a bit of a portmanteau that he had, and a sword, and went in, and came out into the passage and gave me another shilling. _Q._ What sort of a portmanteau was it? _A._ A small leather one, big enough to wrap a coat up in. _Q._ What sort of leather? _A._ I think black leather, as well as I can recollect. _Q._ Have you seen that person since that you drove that morning? _A._ Yes, I saw him in King Street, Westminster. _Q._ At the messenger's house? _A._ At Mr. Wood's house. _Q._ Do you see him in court? _A._ I think this is the gentleman, here, (_pointing to De Berenger_.) _Q._ Were you of the same opinion when you saw him at Mr. Wood's? _A._ When I came down stairs he looked very hard at me. _Q._ Did you know him then? _A._ Yes, it was something of the same appearance, but he had altered himself very much by his dress. _Cross-examined by Mr. Richardson._ _Q._ You went to Wood's for the purpose of seeing him? _A._ Yes, I did. _Q._ Wood is a messenger of the Alien Office? _A._ He lives in King Street. _Q._ He was pointed out there as being the person in custody? _A._ No, I walked down stairs, and met the gentleman coming up stairs. _Q._ You thought you saw a resemblance? _A._ Yes, I thought he was something like the same gentleman that I had carried. _Q._ You do not pretend to be able to recollect every person you carry in your hackney coach every day? _A._ No, but this gentleman that I took from a post chaise and four, when he got out at Green Street I saw that he had a red coat underneath his great coat. _Q._ You did not open your coach to him, the waterman did that? _A._ Yes, the post boy ordered me to get on the box. _Lord Ellenborough._ When he got out you opened the door to him I suppose? _A._ Yes, I did. _Mr. Richardson._ Did you open the door, or the footman at the house? _A._ I opened the
