    LUCY RIPLEY . I am a widow, and live in Pitt-street, Tottemham-court-road . On the 28th of April, at seven o'clock at night, I missed this property. The counter-panes were in a drawer in the front garret, which Moorman rented. I saw his clothes safe the evening before; next day I found them in pledge. The prisoner is a stranger to me - I do not know that she was ever in the house.
