The Daily Dispatch: May 25, 1863., [Electronic resource], Greenbacks Forged in England. (search)
Greenbacks Forged in England. --A case was tried before an examining Court in Sheffield, England, on the 17th April, of forgery of United States greenbacks. The parties were Edwin Hides and Henry Light, copperplate printers. The charge was that of forging $10 greenback notes, and the proof sufficiently clear to warrant the sending on of the accused. The prosecutor stated to the Court that the American Ambassador, from information conveyed to him, was satisfied that forgeries of United States notes had been conducted in England in a wholesale manner, and to "a very alarming extent." The testimony in the case showed that some 3,000 of $10 notes had been printed and conveyed to a person whom the attorney called an American, (no doubt a Yankee,) whose name, for the time, was withheld.
