Cranbrook. A series of impositions.

In our last week's paper we gave the particulars of an imposition having been practised on Mr. Wells, and innkeeper of Biddenden, by a man, given the name of Thomas Wenbourne (but whose real name is Wilson), producing a forged voucher, by which means he obtained 3s. and one pint of ale, and for which he now stands committed. We have since ascertained that three other chargers can be brought against the prisoner for having obtained 2s. from Mr. Wilson, a beer shop keeper, near the station at Staplehurst, presenting a pretended order from Mr. Watt's, farmer of Chart, also obtaining 3s. From Mr. Amos, of the "Kings Head Inn," Charing, by a similar order from Mr. William Hollands, Old Shell Farm, Lenham, and we understand that a fourth indictment can be preferred against him in the neighbourhood of Malin.
