Second Count, stating it to be the dwelling house of the said Isaac Le Plastrier and another. Robert Curry. I live at No 45 Dean Street, Soho, and am a turner. On the 11th April, about four o'clock in the afternoon, I was going down Ludgate Hill, and saw the prisoner force his hands through the window of Mr. Le Plastrier's shop - I could not perceive what he took out, but I saw he had got something. I took hold of him, and took him into the shop - the shop door was not shut at the time; I saw him endeavour to conceal what he had got, and I found a watch-case in each of his hands. I marked them , and delivered them to the Constable; he forced his hands through a very large square of glass, which he broke. Mr. Isaac Le Plastrier. I am a watch - maker, and live at No.20, Ludgate Hill. When I returned from the country the morning after this happened, I found one of the panes of glass in my shop window broken into one hundred and fifty pieces; my son lives in the house, and I carry on the business in partnership with my son; the lease of it is mine - the rent and taxes are paid out of the profits of the business. James Snow. I am a constable and live in Holyday Yard. I received the prisoner in charge, and produce the watch-cases, which I received from Curry. Mr. Le Plastrier. These are my cases - they are worth about 41.; the door which opens to the street does not at once admit you into the shop - there is a lobby, and on the right there is a door which enters the shop; the outer door is always open - the house is in the Parish of St. Martin, Ludgate.
