[William Barrett, William Cherry and James Smith (alias Barber) were found not guilty on 3 June 1772 of raping Ann Smith] 

 

[William Barrett]: The other two prisoners and Cherry's father and mother, and myself, had been to the play; we hired a coach at the corner of Catharine-street; we stopt at Temple Bar and went into a publick house to drink; the coachman came into the house, and told us, that a man and woman had got into our coach: we went and told them that we had taken the coach; Sherrard  [Ann Smith’s brother] swore we should not have it, for he would not get out […] Mrs. [Ann] Smith wanted to get out of the coach, but he would not let her; we got into the coach and the coachman drove off. She […] sung a song in the coach of the huntsman, all the way to Aldgate, and we all bore chorus; there were five besides her in the coach; we were not nine minutes in the coach going from Temple Bar to Aldgate[.]

[…]

 

[James Smith (alias Barber)]: I never offended her, nor did I see any body else; she sung all the way and was very agreeable.
