2.
To utter and publish a counterfeit note is to assert and declare,
directly or indirectly, by words or actions, that the note offered is
good. It is not necessary that it should be passed in order to complete
the offence of uttering. 2. Binn. R. 338, 9. It seems that reading out a
document, although the party refuses to show it, is a sufficient
uttering. Jebb's Ir. Cr. Cas. 282. Vide East, P. C. 179; Leach, 251; 2
Stark. Ev. 378 1 Moody, C. C. 166; 2 East, P. C. 974 Russ. & Ry.
113; 1 Phil. Ev. Index, h. t.; Roscoe's Cr. Ev. 301. The merely showing a
false instrument with intent to gain a credit when there was no
intention or attempt made to pass it, it seems would not amount to an
uttering. Russ. & Ry. 200. Vide Ringing the charge.
