I can swear that the two cheeses produced are my property. I have a store for keeping cheese in. These were two of the cheeses deposited in that store. I examined my store this morning and found its contents very much disturbed, the cheeses being in different positions to when I last saw them on Saturday. I missed two or three cheeses in ad dition to those produced. George Charnock, constable, deposed : I was on duty last night about 11 o'clock. I was standing inside the gaol door, looking towards Mr. Rossiter's store, when I saw a person come out of Mr. Watty's yard, which adjoins Mr. Rossiter's store. He remained a moment or two opposite the store, and then came rouud opposite the window. Ho was then in his shirt-sleeves and stocking feet. He took something from there. He went across the street to a narrow passage between two stables. He came back again to the window, and took something more, and returned i with it to the same place. During the time he was in the passage Lawrence's boy brought a horse past me, as I was standing at the gaol door, for the purpose of taking the animal to the stable. I walked behind the horse, as I suspected all was not right. I looked between the stables, and saw two oheeses. The person who had run away had placed them there. I then whistled for Constable Dogherty. He came up, and I told him what had occurred.
