before Mr. Selfe, on a charge of stealing a pair of boots
from outside the shop of Mr. William Boulding, in the

her service to unfasten a string to which a pair of boots
was attached, remove the boots, and run away with them.

the boots was 4s. 9d.

The prisoner—No, don't do that ; the consequences may
be serious. (A laugh.) I consent to your punishing me,
I have a great objection to any punish-
although, mind,

Mr. Selfe-1 don't care. for your objections. You are
sentenced to two months imprisonment and hard labour.
