picket containing 4s. Gd., with which she intended to pay
her rent. When she came back at about 6 o'clock iu the
overlies she found that the money was gone. The neigh-
bours told her that they had seen the prisoner spending
money. It was not the first time he bad robbed her, awl
his bad conduct was breaking her heart. He was always
up and down the street with the worst of characters.
.

`Mr. Flowers—Why did you leave the money where he
could get it if he had robbed you before
Witness—l thought he would not take it, we being so
Ivor and his father dead.
The prisoner—l did not take the money. I was out
selling dowers all day, and my mother came home blind
drunk.

The mother—Don't believe him, your worship ; he is •
dreadful liar. All the neighbours know it.
Jeremiah MacCarthy, a labourer, living a few doors from
the proaecutrix, here tendered his evidence. He said the
prisoner was a very bad boy, and in the habit of calling his
mother bad names. He had known the priaonersteal money
over and over again, but he knew nothing about this
charge.
Mr. Flowers—l thought this man waa to prove either
that the mother was sober or that the boy took the
money . . .

Maikarthy—No sir. I came to prove what aa outrageous
scoundrel he is to his mother. _ . .

Mr. Flowers—But you know he says he did not take it ;
and by law I can do nothing without proof.
MacCarthy said the boy ought to be put into an institu-
tion.

Mr. Flowers observed that it urea very well to say that,
but there were so many who wanted to put their children
into institutions that those places were now fall. There
was no room for any more.
The mother—lt would a great charity, sir.
Mr. Flowers—The child is in a deplorable condition.
Redbill (the puoler)—He is, sir. He is nearly naked, and
his feet are bare. His toes are sore, and several of the
nails are off. _ _ _

Mr. Flowers—l AO remand him for a week. You must
bring evidence to show that he took the money, and I
shall oonsider what is to be done.
