Also that many men, and women, too, got
drunk there every day of the election. Well,
he supposes they were drunk, because some of
them could not speak plain, nor see very well,
nor walk neither, nor stand steady a moment.
Has seen several carried home in wheelbarrows,
and once on a window-shutter. Was engaged
to play the trombone by Mr. M'Squinney.

By Mr. Serjeant Pike. The wheelbarrows
were not little road or railway-barrows,
but deep garden-barrows. The voter as was
sent home in that way, sank down in the
barrow with his chin resting on his breast.
He was usually followed by boys shouting,
and some of them waved little yellow flags,
and blew penny trumpets. Has seen women
carried off in this way. Has seen this twice.
Once saw a man and his wife carried home at
the same time. They had two wheelbarrows,
which were wheeled away side by side. It
was called a "family party." The woman had
a child in her arms about three years old.
Thinks the child was drunk too, as it screamed
all the way, and had a face like the scarlet
fever.

Jacob Spoonbill. Was also one of the band.
Played the clarionet. Was engaged by Mr.
M'Squinney. Knew Peter Bothmore. Had
good reason, because Bothmore did not know
a note of music, and played any bass he had a
mind to. He, Spoonbill, had complained to
Mr. M'Squinney, who said it did not matter
a rap, so as he played loud enough, and told
him (witness) to mind his own business, and he
would pay the piper. Has seen men, women,
and children come out of the "Glorious
Constitution" quite drunk. Has seen them
carried off. in wheelbarrows and market-carts;
such carts as bring calves and pigs to market.
Heard a voter say, as he came out one day, as
how he'd vote for the devil if he paid him
like a gentleman.

Philip Smith. Is a journeyman shoemaker.
Often stood in front of the "Glorious Constitution"
to see the game as was going on.
Saw Mr. Yellowboys drive up to the door, one
day, in an open carriage with four white
horses. Knows Mr. Yellowboys. He has a
large blue-bottle nose, small bright eyes,
sandy hair, oiled and curled, and very much
like an uncommon handsome wig, large white
teeth, dresses very plain and loose, in a brown
frock-coat and large light waistcoat, with a
big diamond shirt-pin, and wears very
indifferent-made boots, for such a gentleman.
Mr. Yellowboys did not go into the "Glorious
Constitution" the day witness saw him, but
stood up in his carriage in front of the house,
and drank a pot of beer as was handed up to
him by a voter, bowing all round, while everybody
in the inn and all outside cheered him,
and cried "Yellowboys for ever!"— and he
still a-bowing and a-smiling all round, and a-
laying his hand upon his heart as he was druv
away, amidst the cheering and the band
playing. Saw Mr. M'Squinney up at a open
window, grinning and looking so uncommon
pleased. Heard one of the voters call him a
Cheshire cat.

William Plumworlh. Keeps a shop in the
sweet business. Means that he sells rock,
and toffee, and bull's eyes, and all-sorts, and
such like. Did not know where Lambkin's
Mews was. Knew the house in Leapfrog
Court. Had once been in it, as far as the
passage, but were never into the sifting-room.
Thought it was called the sifting-room
because cinders were sifted there. Has seen
Mr. M'Squinney once or twice. Never
received any money from him. Never had
money about him, except a few halfpence.
The sweet business were not so good as it
used to be, and were specially bad in election
times. At all events, people didn't care for
his sugar-plums at such times. Went
somewhere else for them, he supposed. Never
wrote a note to Mr. Yellowboys, saying he
had a wife dying of the measles, and seven
small children, most of them still in arms. Is
a tea-totaller.

By Mr. Serjeant Pike. Did not recollect
receiving a present of a hundred-weight of
loaf sugar and a box of Jordan almonds, the
day before the election. Had no idea at all
who they came from, if he did. Thought the
sifting-room was used for sifting cinders,
because he saw Mark Miles, the sweep and dust-
contractor, go in there one Saturday evening.
Never drank dog's-nose in the sifting-room.
Has heard that dog's-nose was made of gin
and porter, but never drunk any. Made him
sick to think on it. Always took tea with his
dinner. Had spent sixpence or sevenpence
during the election. Spent it in medicine for
his wife. Does not know what medicine. It
were not in pills; it were a draught.

Thomas Pavit, greengrocer, of Leapfrog
Street, deposed that Plumworth, the last
witness, told him, on the first day of the
election, that his wife had tumbled over a
door-scraper and hurt her knee, and that Mr.
M'Squinney had sent him a little lump-sugar,
as were very good for it (laughter). Plumworth
had also written to Mr. Yellowboys, to tell him
of his domestic afflictions, and had received,
next day, three sovereigns from M'Squinney,
who said it was to put his dear wife upon her
legs again. Advised witness to put his dear
wife upon her legs, and lose no time. Witness
told him he had no wife, but Plumworth said
what did that signify? Went with Plumworth
to the "Glorious Constitution." Plumworth
treated him to ham and beef, very freely, and
also treated several others to hot sausages and
shrub, and whatever they liked. Said, expense
was no object; he could have as much gold as
he liked for his votes. Went with Plumworth,
on the second day of the election, to the house
in Leapfrog Street. Plumworth's wife and a
child of three year old came there to them.
They all drank dog's-nose, child and all.
Plumworth and his wife each drank three pints of it,
and more. The child sucked it up through a
straw. Plumworth was asked to sing a song.
