ROBBING A KIND SISTER.—Lucy Weedon, a young
woman, between 16 and 17 years of age, was charged with
stealing a quantity of wearing apparel, the property of her

sister.

Mrs. Emma Thorne, the wife of a journeyman painter,
living at 12, Queen's-road, Brompton, said that on the
morning of the Ist of March, the property she now missed
was safe in her drawers. On the afternoon of that day
the prisoner came to her house, and stating that she had
walked from Greenwich, asked her to give her a night's
lodging, which she iwmediately consented to do. She
stated that her wearing apparel was in a very dirty state,
and inquired if prosecutor would afford her an opportu-
nity of washing it, to which she replied that she was
going to work at seven in the morning, and prisoner could
put on some clothes of her's while she washed her own.
Prisoner had some supper and went to bed, and was left
by prosecutor in the morning in the room, but when she
returned in the evening she found the prisoner gone, and
also the articles missing.
A. little girl proved that she saw the prisoner leave the
house with a large bundle, which she endeavemed to con-
ceal.

Prisoner said she did not know anything of the property.
Mr. Selfe—What is the prisoner's position in life ?
Prosecutrix--She has been in service, but left it, and
when she came to me on the let of March, said she was
trying to get into a reformatory.
Mr. Selfs—Has she been leading a bad life ?
Prosecutrix—l fear she has.

Mr. Selfe—Has she parents alive ?
Prosecutrix—She has net. Her mother died many
years ago. Her father shortly afterwards. I have had
charge of her since she was 10 years old. I have got her
several situations, but I am sorry to say she won't work,
and has
.taken to evil courses. I wish something could
be done for her, I am sure.
Mr. Selfe remanded the prisoner for a week.
