inspector) obtained information that the filth wa:s

he chargel with deSerting the child. Since the lad had
been at Ox ton, the prisoner had seen him several tim,,v,
and he . (the inspector) believed he had told the chilu'
to say that • his parents were dead, as that was a very
common practice for parents to do to get their children
into the schools, and when they were taken out to be
apprenticed, they found them out, and not unfrequently
persuaded them to leave their places, and go to worse
pursuits, which often led them to their ruin. The prisoner
had never seen the child for the four years it was in the
school:4 The prisoner said he had nothing to say about
the matter, as, after his wife died, the aunt sent the child
to the workhouse, and he. know he was in the schools.
Mr. Aikin: And, for four years, you never thought it
worth your w`iile to look after him. It is one of the.
most disgraceful things I ever heard of, and I exceedingly
regret that I cannot punish you more severely, but I will
do all the law will permit me, and that is, imprison you
for one month, with hhard labour. The prisoner appeared
perfectly indifferent as he left the dock.
