THOMAS BRADBURY, offences against the king : coining, 21st April, 1819.
The Proceedings of the Old Bailey Ref: t18190421-75
MARY ANN NEATE . I am the daughter of John Neat , who is a corn-chandler, and lives at No. 87, Old-street. In the beginning of February, about the middle of the day, the prisoner came to our shop, and asked for half a bushel of split beans. He said he came from Mrs. Crampton - we have a customer of that name; the beans came to 3 s. - I served him. He paid me a 1 l. note; I gave him the change, and he went away. I put the note in the till.
Q. Are you able to say whether there was any other note there at the time - A. Not to the best of my knowledge. I unlocked the till and put it in - I saw no other there. I locked it again, and hung the key up, behind the counter. My father came home in about half an hour - my mother serves in the shop. I had been out of the shop, leaving her there - nobody but us was in the shop until my father came home. I then told him what had happened, saw him open the till, and take out the note, and write Mrs. Crampton on it - (looks at it) - this is it. It has Mrs. Crampton on it in his hand-writing.
Q. From the time the prisoner paid you the note till your father opened the till, had you put any other note there - A. No, no other customer had been while I was there.
COURT. Q. Did he say where Mrs. Crampton lived - A. No, I supposed it to be our customer, as we had one of that name.
JOHN NEATE . I am a corn-chandler, and live in Old-street. One morning, the beginning of February, I came home. My daughter said she had taken a 1 l. note; I opened the till, and found only one there. I wrote Mrs. Crampton, I. N. on it directly, as she told me to write that - (looks at it) - this is it. I paid it away to Mr. Mason, who is a hay salesman. It was returned to me a fortnight after as forged. I made inquiry about it. Mrs. Crampton was a customer of mine.
HANNAH NEATE . I am the wife of the last witness - I and my daughter attend the shop. I will not be positive to the prisoner's being the man who came to the shop - he is very much like him. I think it is him.
Q. Was his head bound up as it is now - A. I did not observe it.
Q. A person however came - A. Yes, and gave my daughter a 1 l. note for the beans, which she put into the till - nobody but her and myself was in the shop, or had access to the till, until my husband returned. I cannot say whether she opened the till, but I am certain I neither put a note in or took one out.
Mentioned in father's will of 1841.
