    1905 A court case at the Old Bailey where Fanny Naomi STAMP was a witness
    Have only included details of when she was being a witness
    The case was against a Joseph Antoine Louis LOBJOIS for Deception Fraud, he was found guilty and imprisoned
    (JOSEPH ANTOINE LOUIS LOBJOIS (38) , Fraudulently converting to his own use and benefit a cheque for £6 2s. 8d. received by him for and on account of Jules Bengue.
    FANNY NAOMI STAMP . I am a book-keeper employed by Dr. Bengue & Co. at 91, Great Titchfield Street—this account of 1902 is made up from the ledger—I posted the ledger from the day book which I kept—after the prisoner had opened the letters he would hand me the cheques, and I would enter them into the receipts book, and afterwards into the ledger—in this account of August, 1902, the amount owing by the American Dental Company is £22 12s. 10 1/2 d.—that entry I would make from the ledger, which shows that that company owed that amount at the end of July—had I had the cheque I would have entered it in the receipts book, but there is no entry of such cheque in that book, so from that fact and looking at the ledger and this account, which shows that amount outstanding, I can say that no such cheque was handed to me—that amount of £22 12s. 10 1/2 d. is made up of the following invoices: April, £9 18s. 11 1/2 d.; May, £2 17s. 7d.; June, £2 8s. 4d.; and July, £7 8s.—
    I did not receive any of those cheques from the prisoner—on looking at the ledger, folio 196, I see Porro's cheques £62 8s. and £3 9s. 4d., and the American Dental's cheques, £9 10s., being the cheque for £9 18s. 11 1/2 d., less discount, and £13 are entered by me as having bee a received by the prisoner—that was done by Mr. Frederick Bengue's instructions in July, after the prisoner had gone—the prisoner did all the paying in and only did the entering when I was away, but when I was there I was the proper person to enter the receipt of the cheques—on my return from my holidays in July, 1903, I found in Porro's account in the receipts book, an entry, in the prisoner's writing, of a receipt from Porro of £27 6s. 3d.—I could scarcely mike the figures out because they had been altered again and again—I was never handed a cheque to correspond with that amount—I crossed the entry out—I had no conversation with the prisoner about it—I once found an account in the prisoner's writing to the American Dental Company for one month when I had already made out one and given it to him, which proved that mine had been torn up—I thought from that that the account had been paid by the American Dental Company—I was in the habit of sending out accounts, and made out accounts to the American Dental Company and Porro, but the prisoner would not let me post them, but always delivered them himself—this paying-in slip (Produced) is in his writing and shows a payment in of £12 10s. 11d.—there is no entry of any cheque for £12 13s. 11d. being received from the American Dental Company on May 8th, 1903—I produce other paying-in slips to show some amounts had been paid into the Societe Generate without corresponding entries in the receipts book—on returning from lunch one day in July, 1903, I found a slip of paper on my desk in the prisoner's hand-writing saying that the American Dental Company had settled their account up to the end of June—I saw no cheque of any sort, nor did he mention the matter further.
    Cross-examined. The account I made out to the American Dental Company included the items prior to July, and I found an account in the prisoner's writing excluding those items—I ignored the slip of paper left on my desk and sent in an account for the full sum to July; I did not feel justified in entering a cheque unless I had seen it—I did not ask the prisoner for an explanation; I did not like to; I rather thought things were not going right in the office—I did not ask the prisoner anything about this entry that I had crossed out in the receipt book; I thought he would question me—the books were always open there for him to see—I am confident I never saw the American Dental cheques—I never had the bank book and I never saw the paying-in slips—the cheques received were actually handed to me on every occasion—I have known postal orders sent by customers to be cashed and used in the business in 1900 and 1901—it was not necessary to do so in 1902 because we usually had enough cash—when we did not have enough cash we had to make use of postal orders—I can find no entries of postal orders having been cashed—the prisoner cashed customers, cheques to use in the proceeds of the business, but not at the time we are speaking of—I can find no trace of a cheque or postal order having been so cashed in 1902—the money handed
    to me by the prisoner was always put in the cash book—I hope I always did my duty—whether a cheque was used in the business or not, it was always entered in the receipt book—I know it was done at the commencement of the business—if there had been a cheque cashed and the proceeds given to me, I should have put it as cash received—on May 16th, 1902, the prisoner gave me £10, out of which I paid £6 2s. 8d. customs duties—on June 2nd, 1902, the prisoner handed me £1) 10s.—the customs duties, £9 10s. 6d., were paid on that date—I see that the petty cash book on September 11th, 1902, is not balanced, but it was impossible for me to keep a correct balance, for the prisoner would take sums from the cash box in 1902 and 1903 without informing me—he instructed me not to enter them—I see it is not balanced for seven weeks—I was not allowed to put the sums he took in the expenses, otherwise I could have balanced—I know something about the inhalers being there, and I was called on the last occasion to give evidence with reference to them—when I said last time that I had found four dozen had been bought I did not know you were referring to the four different patterns of inhalers; I was referring only to the glass inhaler—there might have been 100 dozen inhalers ordered altogether—when I answered you, I had only looked through the books for orders for the glass inhaler—I cannot tell you how many inhalers were sold.
    Re-examined. On May 16th I paid the £6 2s. 8d. customs duties out of £10 the prisoner gave me—on looking at Dr. Bengue's pass book at the London City & Midland Bank I found that on May 16th the prisoner took from Dr. Bengue's account the £10 which he handed to me.

The idea of these charts is to give the information that we have found in the research we have done and put together and with the help of many other people who have contacted us over the past thirty odd years we have been researching our family. The idea is that you click on the Chart box in blue to be taken to the next family. There is now a large number of charts to be found and connections can be made to all the main families I am researching. If a chart has a box with the standard background it means that as yet I have not put the Chart on the Web.
To conform to the Data Protection Act all the Charts have been altered to exclude all details for living people other than the name.
