Q. You were busy getting him something at the time?
A. He was standing while I was getting it, and then he sat down; I staid to wait upon him.
Q. What was the whole length of the time you were with him?
A. I suppose ten minutes.
Q. The greatest part of that time he was eating, was not he?
A. The greatest part of the time he was talking; I do not think he ate any thing; he took a knife and fork in his hand but I do not believe he ate any thing.
A Juryman. Did you observe any thing particular in his dress?
A. He was dressed pretty much in the way I have described; he had one part of his dress I have not mentioned, which was a large white cockade hanging down very dirty, as if it had been a long time worn.
Lord Ellenborough. Had you any conversation with him about his communicating this intelligence in any public quarter; or did you give him any advice upon that?
A. No I did not. When he went away I gave him a card of the road, and requested his favors when he should come that way again; and he bowed, as if assenting.
