sides Donithorne. _A._ I do not remember seeing any other. _Q._ Who carried the rod with which they measured; was it Mr. De Berenger or Donithorne? _A._ I cannot say, indeed. _Q._ You may recollect who held the paper, and put down the measurements; which of the two carried the paper, and which carried the measuring rod? _A._ I cannot tell which of the two it was, they being at the top of the garden almost. _Q._ It is only a small garden, we know the situation? _A._ It is a long garden. _Q._ Which of them was it? _A._ I cannot say, indeed, which of them it was. _Q._ But one of them did? _A._ Yes. _Q._ Was there snow on the ground then? _A._ No, it was a wet morning, I think. _Q._ Are you sure it was a wet morning? _A._ I think it was a wet morning, but I did not take particular notice of the day. _Lord Ellenborough._ It had rained a good deal, had it? _A._ Yes, it had. _Q._ There was a good deal of rain last February, was there? _A._ I think that was a wet morning. _Mr. Bolland._ Had the effect of the rain been such, as to give them a good view of the surface of the ground, so as to measure? _A._ Yes, I think it had. _Q._ The snow was melted? _A._ I think it was. _Q._ And you saw them lay the rule regularly, that they could take the measurement properly? _A._ Yes. _Lord Ellenborough._ Did your husband fail, when he gave up the hatting business? _A._ Why, yes. _Q._ There had been no commission of bankrupt against him? _A._ No. _Q._ And he gave up his business in that house, and you have been since living at Mr. Donithorne's house? _A._ Yes. _Q._ How long has he been in the bail line? _A._ In the bail line! _Q._ How long has he been bail for people? _A._ That is unknown to me, if he has. _Q._ You have never known of people coming after him to be bail? _A._ No, I have not. _Q._ He has told us he has been bail for two persons; you know nothing of that? _A._ No. _Q._ When did he fail? _A._ On the 17th of February. _Q._ Has there been an execution in the house you lived in since that? _A._ No. _Q._ Is Mr. Donithorne a creditor of your husband's; do you owe him money? _A._ No. _Q._ Is he a relation? _A._ Yes; he is a cousin. _Lord Ellenborough._ How far is York-street, Westminster, from the Asylum? _Mr. Park._ I understand it is behind the barracks in Bird-cage Walk. _Lord Ellenborough._ It is about a mil
