"No." I further questioned him as to his movements. We then went out on to the street, and shortly afterwards Sen.-Sergt. Atkinson came up, and he questioned the accused. I then detained him on suspicion of being concerned in a robbery' at Mr George Sheppeard's on that night. I took him to the lockup. Early next, morning, in company with Sen.- Sergt.

Atkinson a bedroom which was occupied by the accused, and at his request I locked it up and took possession of the key. Early next morning I unlocked the door for the Sen. -Sergt. and I saw him find a bundle of notes under the mattress of the bed, in the accused's room.
