Examinations and depositions: Inf. of Eliz. Farr, Woburn. She was standing in the doorway of the Greyhound public house when Geo. Low of Flitton "forcibly took a light coloured Cotton Shawl from my shoulders". He closed it tightly in his hands and ran off. She ran after him for about twenty yards, "then George Low came back towards me walking - George Low then said to me "He is gone with it as hard as he can run" I says "Your are the Man" Then George Low ran away down the Street passing the Greyhound - I had made a general sort of alarm among my friends in pursuing George Low at last a young man help'd me, and we got hold of and held George Low fast - then my Cousin - Capp, came to our assistance, and also my brother, and after that, by the help of the Watchman he (George Low) was put into the Cage..." Inf. of Thos. Heighington, Woburn, constable. Eliz. Farr asked him to take a man who was in the cage before a magistrate. He recognised the man as someone he had seen earlier in the day wearing a straw hat. Asked where his straw hat was, for he was then wearing a black one, he replied that someone had taken it out of a public house of which he knew not the name or the landlord.
