_A._ No, I do not.
_Q._ At what time did he come in the morning?
_A._ Between nine and ten.
_A Juryman._ That might be any other Sunday morning, as you were in the habit of indulging on a Sunday morning?
_A._ No, but I know the time; it was the Sunday after I let my house; I have it impressed upon my mind that it was on the 20th of February I saw him at this house in York-street, Westminster.
_A Juryman._ Then the lying in bed in the morning had nothing to do with it?
_A._ No.
_Lord Ellenborough._ Have you ever been bail?
_A._ Yes.
_Q._ Have you ever justified in any action?
_A._ Yes.
_Q._ What action was that?
_A._ A fifteen-pound action.
_Q._ How long was that ago?
_A._ Five or six months.
_Q._ Is that debt paid?
_A._ Yes.
_Q._ Did you ever justify in any other action?
_A._ Yes, I have.
_Q._ Is that satisfied?
_A._ Yes.
_Q._ You are clear as to that, that these debts are paid?
_A._ Yes.
_Q._ Were you never bail but twice?
_A._ I do not recollect that I was; I might be, but I do not recollect; but I have not been in the habit of being bail for people.
_Q._ You have not been in the habit, but you have been twice:--what was the other sum besides the fifteen pounds?
_A._ I do not exactly know what the money was; but the other was more than that, a good deal.
_Q._ That is only within a few months?
_A._ I dare say that is five months back.
_Lord Ellenborough._ You may go away, and let me advise you not to be either a bail or a witness again. If the master had been here with the book, I have no doubt you might have gone much further with him.
