History Of A Coinert^^ We Have Mentioned...
HISTORY OF A COINErT ^^ We have mentioned in our Town-hall police i-Cn * for Monday last , the committal of the woman \ r ? hern , alias Loekwopd , on a charge of coiiii « „ , uttering counterfeit coin ; and we now proceed * give some particulars of her trul y eventful liistn with which Mr . Powell , the solicitor to the Mint i /' obligingly furnished us . r ' The hrst that is known of her is as tlic wife 0 f soldier serving under Sir John Moore in Snain o „! i whom she "followed to the field " -tru
that took place , and she to have consoled hereollVith another , if not many more . In one engagement with the enemy , the serjeant-major of the reg iment she followed was killed by a shot ; on which ( while it » imagined the engagement' still continued ) she eon trived tO get at the body , and rifle the dead nian'j "kit" of its contents . Among them were his marriage and other certificates , which she carefull y concealed and preserved for after-use . On returning home she passed hei-seir off as the widow- of this scrj eantinajor , in order to obtaiha pension ; and afterwards on » nurse s place "' in "Chelsea Hospital becoming vacant , she applied for and obtained it , also as the searjeant-major ' s widow ; having all the necessary documents , she was enabled to answer every question
and her identity was never doubted . But when she had been comfortably located here for some time , the real widow came home 1 Her application for a pension , its denialon the ground that the widow was already provided for , and the real widow ' s reiterated assertions that she was the widow , caused an investigation by the late Sir Charles Grant . The result was , that Biddy was turned adrift-on tho " wide wide world , " and was lost sight of for several years . Her first reappearance was in the character of ; a coiner , as which she was tried and convicted in 1828 , ' and sentenced to a year ' s imprisonment . In . . 1834 she was again tried ; but this time under the name of Lockwood ; and in comnjfriy with her second husband , whose real name , however , was Stafford
and who was a very skilfulmason by trade . He wag convicted , and she was then acquitted as being his wife , and supposed to be acting under his direction In 1836 she was convicted at Aylesbury for coining and she then said she was fifty-five years of age . She was again tried for the same offence at Warwick in 1838 , out acquitted , owing to insufficiency of evidence ; and in July of the same year she was again tried ; and this time in . connection with a woman named Eliza Perceval , the offence being the same , Lockwood ( prisoner ) got eighteen months' imprisonment , and Tier companion twelve months . From that time till the present apprehension of Mrs . Mul . hern , alias Lockwood , Ac ; , Mr . Powell had alnioet entirely lost sight of her ; sometimes he thoueht ho
recognised her busmess-talent in the different easts forwarded to him , but was riot able to follow out the clue . In the answers she now gave to the queg . tions contained in the " Description Paper , " prisoner had in almost every case given false statements , not wishing , doubtless , to renew her acquaintance with the Mint solicitor ; . arid when confronted with him she stoutly denied all previous knowledge of Mr ! Powell , till he mentioned one or two " passages" in her life , when she Bald ,. " Ah' . — - — told vou that tale . " In 1828 , Lockwood ( her husband ) was convicted at the Surrey assizes of coining , & c and sentenced to one year ' s imprisonment . In 1833 he was convicted at Warwick , and sentenced to six months' imprisonment . The following vcar he was
tried and' convicted at Stafford , and sent to gaol for one year . For the next three years little or nothing was heard of him ; but in 1838 he was tried at War . wick , where he got three months ' 'imprisonment ; and in January , 1839 , he was tried at Gloucester , and sentenced to a year ' s imprisonment . Lastly , he was apprehended at Abingdon , in the following , or the year after that , with a woman of the name of Harriet Thompson , whom he had taken to supply the place of his wife on her being sent to prison " for eighteen months ; and on the 25 th of January he was transported for life , and she ( Thompson ) was imprisoned lor two years . Ann Lockwood , if we recollect avijdit ,
I was not actually aware of her husband ' s fate till she saw Mr . Powell in Leicester gaol .: At the expiration of her temi a subscription was raised to enable the woman Thompson to Mow ; her "husband" to Sydney , and she arrived . 'there , safely .. In October last the governor . 6 f * Abingdon . gaol had received a letter froni her , stating that "James" ( Lockwood ' or 'Thompson ) was regularly employed by the chief builders of Sydney , arid at good wages ; while she had also obtained profitable employment . He , it seems , is very clever as a workman in gotlric architecture , arid at cutting out grotesaue . ; heaus and other orna . ments for chmches . —Leicester ; CIironicle .
