ROBBERIES AT
MORE " GAROTTE"
MAN CHESTER.
At the Manchester Borough Court,
on Monday,
the magistrates were called upon to investigate not
fewer than three cases of this kind of violent personal
attack and robbery. On Wednesday night, a man
named Shore, a flymaker, who keeps a provision shop
in Hanover-street, Shude-hill, was returning from a
public-house in Oldham-road, where be had been at-
tending his club, and having occasion to stand for a
brief space at the corner of Spear-street, he noticed a
woman, three men, and two lads, iu conversation.
Almost immediately after, one of the
men named
Shackleton, went up to him, and seizing him by the
throat with a powerful gripe, called to the rest to come
on. They did so, and shore was robbed of 30s. in
gold, some copper money, and his watch. The vio-
lence used to his throat was very
great and he was
some time before he recovered his speech. He knew
the woman, and on Friday, seeing Shackleton going to
,
her house, he gave information to the police, who ap-
prehended both. They were remanded till Saturday
to. allow a more complete investigation. William
Copestick and Henry Thompson were charged with
having been concerned in stealing 91. from the person
of Henry Compton, a young man, early on Saturday
evening. The prosecutor had come from Glossop, and
while passing along Bennett-street, Oldham-road, a fe-j accosted him. He replied to her and passed on, but
had advanced a very short distance before a man,
whom he had not seen before, suddenly seized him by
the throat, and a shawl was at the same time cast
over his head. He was thrown down, and robbed of
the amount named and a watch, the man still keeping
hold of his throat, and so nearly suffocating him that
he became insensible. When he came to himself he
called for assistance, but the shock to the nervous
system and the violence had been so great that he
went into fits, and had to be taken to the infirmary
and attended to there. When recovered, information
being communicated to the police, search was made,
and the prisoners were apprehended. They were re-
manded till Friday, as the shawl which was thrown
over Crompton's head was left behind, and it is ex-
pected that the owner will be found. On Saturday
evening, about a quafter to five o'clock, a young fac-
tory operative, named Hall, while passing along
Baird-street, Chorlton-upon-Medlock, on his way
home, came up to a number of young men, some of
whom he knew, and he had a few minutes' conversa-
tion. After be left two of the number, Bibby and
Crawfield, followed him, the former to strangle him in
the most approved garotte fashion, and the latter to
rob him of 2s. 7d. They accomplished this before he
got out of Baird-street, and in the presence of other

parties, who did not assist him because the robbers
had too strong a party. Both were subsequently ap-
prehended, and the charge being clearly proved
wino; them, they were sent for trial at the assizes.
