CAPTURE OF A LIVERPOOL THIEF.—On the 13th
of August, 1862, a robbery was committed in the
middle of the day at the office of Mr. S. Hughes, Duke-
street, Liverpool. A clerk, named Lewis, said a man came
into the office and struck hint a violent blow on the head
with a blunt instrument, rendering him insensible. On
an examination of the premises, a bag containing £219
was missed. The surgeon who attended Lewis found that
his skull had been nearly fractured by the blow. The
police, however, were afterwards led to doubt Lewis's state-
ment, and he was taken into custody, and subsequently
sentenced to
nine months' imprisonment. It was also
ascertained that a man named Thomas Thomas, who
was living at a fashionable hotel in Covent-garden, was
"'led up in the matter. A London detective was sent to
this hotel, and found Thomas, who was very indignant at
such a charge, but offered to treat the officer to a pint of
half-and-half. While the officer was drinking Thomas
escaped, and was not heard of till about a fortnight ago,
When it was discovered that he was in the habit of calling
for letters at the Post-office in Fleet-street, London. He
was arrested, and in spite of his indignation he was this
time safely lodged in prison. He was then taken before the
magistrates and sent to Liverpool, where he arrived en
Wednesday night.
