Prosecution brief for trial of John Pritchard, fruiterer, for misdemeanour in receiving grapes stolen from Lord Tylney's hot-house at Wanstead (then in Essex). The brief shows that there was doubt about 'finding law to punish'. The case had been removed from the Middlesex Sessions to the King's Bench.
