Trial of Mr Robert Perreau At the Old Bailey
A detailed account of the Thursday morning trial of Robert Perreau at the Old Bailey before the Lord Mayor and judges. Evidence centers on a forged bond purporting to be William Adair's and the attempt to publish it to defraud bankers Drummond and Co. The defense frames Perreau as innocent, while Mrs. Perreau confesses to the forgery. The jury returns guilty against Robert Perreau and acquits Daniel Perreau. Mrs. Rudd faces further action.
