The complainant stated that she met the defendant, on Saturday last, on Waterloo Terrace, when she accosted her, and asked her when she was coming to measure her for a dress, and bring the one back she had robbed her off [sic]; she (witness) proceeded on her way, when the defendant shouted after her, and called her a thief and stated it was not the first time that she had done the same. Alice Sanders was called and corroborated the evidence of Miss Lateward. - The defendant indignantly denied that she called the complainant a thief, but admitted that she had told her that she had robbed her of two yards of stuff out of a dress that she had made for her. -The Bench considered the case proved and fined the defendant 2s. and 8s. costs."^[8]
