Whether a person, after being served with a complaint of forgery can himself be put on examination? Argued at the Bar and on the Bench, when the Court seemed inclined to examine him, but proposed first to have a precedent laid before them in the case of Fitzgerald; upon which the prisoner's counsel passed from the objection, and for him agreed to submit to examination, and he was examined accordingly.
