| | On the 3rd of January 1842 Daniel Cuttiford appeared at the Coventry Quarter Sessions on the charge of embezzlement. [Although the trial records are yet to be located, it appears probable that Daniel was found innocent of the charge. As detailed below, he passed a counterfeit coin on the 23rd of July 1842. Had he been found guilty of the embezzlement charge, it is unlikely he would have been free only six months later. In addition to this, his ‘receiving stolen goods’ charge which was heard in 1846, is recorded as his second offence, not his third which would be the case if he had been convicted of the embezzlement charge.] | |
