CRUELTY BY A FATHER.— Yesterday, at the
`Surrey Sessions, William Mark Fry, a jobbing carpenter
tesiding at Woodbine Cottage, Camberwell, was indicted
for unlawfully assaulting Edward Mark Fry, aged ten years,
his son. There were two counts in the indictment, charg-
ing him with starving the child, fastening an iron chain
round his body with a ring attached to one of his legs, and
to which was another chin with a heavy block of wood
fastened. The jury returned a verdict of guilty on two
counts—doing grievous bodily harm and assault. They
also recommended that the poor child should be taken care
of by the parish authorities. The Chairmen said it was
the
worst case that had been before the court for many
Years, and the sentence would be three years' penal servi-
tude.
