_A._ No.

_A._ Yes.

_Q._ What balance of omnium had Mr. Cochrane Johnstone on that day?

_A._ 120,000.

_Q._ What was Mr. Cochrane Johnstone's consol account on that day?

_A._ 100,000.

_Q._ How much had Mr. b.u.t.t of omnium at the same time?

_A._ I think about 160,000.

_Q._ Is not the omnium 130,000.

_A._ I should think more than that; I believe it was 154,000.

_Q._ How much his consols?

_A._ Yes, it is.

_Q._ How many rooms were there?

_A._ Three.

_Q._ Had you one?

_A._ I had one and a small closet; Mr. b.u.t.t had another up stairs with Mr. Johnstone and my Lord Cochrane, and the ground floor was occupied by Mr. Lance.

_Q._ Was he a clerk of yours, or employed by them?

_A._ He was employed by them.

_Q._ Had you taken that office, or had it been taken for you?

_A._ Mr. Johnstone had taken his with one room or two rooms, I am not sure which.

_Q._ Had the office been taken for you, or had you yourself gone and taken it?

_A._ They had taken those two rooms, I believe, without intending to take any more; but as I was not pleasantly situated, and was rather too far from business, I wished to have an office there, if they could procure it; several of my friends went to look at it, and finding it convenient, I requested them to take the whole of it, if they could, in order that I might be accommodated.

_Lord Ellenborough._ Whom do you mean by friends, Mr. Cochrane Johnstone?

_A._ No, other persons for whom I did business.

_Mr. Gurney._ When was this done?

_A._ In the course of the week preceding.

_Lord Ellenborough._ When you say Mr. Cochrane Johnstone took a room for you, do you mean at this place?

_Q._ They had taken those two rooms, I believe, for themselves, without reference to my having any thing to do there.

_Mr. Gurney._ Did they afterwards take a third?

_A._ They afterwards took the whole that is in my possession.

_Q._ You have all of them in your possession now?

_A._ I have.
