int of appearance he
resembles him, except that the person I served had whiskers." Now if you
recollect the history of the whiskers, it is established that he had
worn whiskers, though the woman who endeavoured to make us believe that
he slept at home on the Sunday night, said she had not so much as
observed (though she had been his servant two years and a half) whether
he had any whiskers. It appears to me that is a circumstance in the
countenance of a person which one would very much observe; he says, "the
person I saw in Parliament-street had not whiskers;" he then looked at
Mr. De Berenger, and said, "this is the person I was introduced to at
the coffee house in Parliament-street; I really cannot undertake to
swear that he is the person, the gentleman that represented himself to
be Mr. Wilson, was dressed in a different manner, he had black whiskers,
and from that circumstance I could not possibly undertake to swear it

for the servant, more than once; he occupied the whole of the upper part
of the house, I and my husband had the two parlours. I heard him also
occasionally playing the violin and trumpet, and he used to walk about;
he then wore whiskers. I generally heard his bell; I did not see him
come home on the Monday; I saw him in the evening, about half past
five; I had heard him in the afternoon. He quitted my house on the
Sunday after; I remember a gentleman calling on the Saturday night, the
day before he quitted, with a letter; I have since seen that gentleman
again, I saw him at the Temple; Mr. Lavie was then present. I cannot say
that I positively knew the gentleman, but I think it was the same that I
