Joseph Despard Pemberton being duly sworn on oath deposited and saith: on the night of the twenty first day of January or on the morning of the twenty second my house was broken into and some silk dresses and other articles stolen. The silk produced in court I recognize as portion corresponding with one of the the silk dresses stolen. The value of one a blue silk dress stolen was twenty dollars and upwards and the value of the other a striped silk dress was twenty dollars and upwards. A portion of the the silk dress produced in court is part of the binding of the blue dress and the other silk is a portion of the dress itself. (Signed) J D Pemberton
