sentences:  According to the Derby Mercury of 21 September 1750 Maclean was held in the "Gatehouse, Westminster for robbing Josiah Higden of a Portmanteau containing divers wearing apparel" on the Salisbury Stagecoach route.After one robbery, the information on the stolen items was circulated and led to Maclaine's arrest — he stripped the lace from a waistcoat taken in the robbery and attempted to sell it to a pawnbroker in Monmouth Street, who by chance took it to the same man who had just sold the lace and recognised it.Rather than returning home to fetch the money to pay for the lace, the man alerted a constable and Maclaine was arrested.
