t you down in the prices? _A._ No, he did not. _Q._ Did he say any thing about money? _A._ No, he made no observations, he merely paid for them. _Q._ You were conversing with that person for some time? _A._ For a short time. _Q._ Have you since seen him again--have you seen any person that you believed to be the same? _A._ I was introduced to a person---- _Q._ Where was that? _A._ At the Parliament-street Coffee House. _Q._ Do you believe that person you saw at the Parliament-street Coffee House to be the person who so made the purchase? _A._ That I cannot undertake to say. _Q._ What do you believe? _A._ In point of appearance he resembles him, except that the person whom I served had whiskers. _Q._ I suppose the person you saw in Parliament street had not? _A._ He had not. _Q._ Look at him now and tell me whether you do or do not believe him to be the person?
