Lord Ellenborough. The whole of this fund was cleared on the 21st, except £10,000 Consols, and it was oversold by £24,000 Omnium?
A. Exactly so.
Mr. Gurney. Have you calculated from the accounts, the profits made by those sales of the 21st?
A. I have.
Q. To what does it amount?
A. Exactly £10,450.
Q. That is the total of the three. Can you give me the proportion of each?
A. For Lord Cochrane £2470, Mr. Cochrane Johnstone £4931:5, Mr. Butt £3048:15.
Q. From the state of the market on the morning of the 21st if no news had arrived such as raised the funds on that day, could any persons have sold this large quantity of Omnium and Consols without very much depressing the market?
A. I should think not certainly.
