ATTEMPT TO UTTER BASE COIN

James Woof was charged with two attempts to utter a 

base crown-piece at the Horse Shoe public house, and

the Queen's Hotel, Butler Street.

The prisoner said that Mr. Bannister, beerhouse

keeper in Butler Street, had put the 5 shilling piece

in his hand and said, "Here Jack, go and get a 

glass of ale and come back again."

PC. Byrne said that when he arrested Woof, he told

him that he got the coin at Liverpool Races.
