19 barrels, in all £3BO. He would have to pay a penalty
of £1 for each of the single-barrelled guns, and a penalty
of £5 for each of the double-barrelled ones, in all £B3, or,
in default of payment, undergo terms of imprisonment
amounting to four months and 28 days. Defendant said
he was unable to pay the penalties, and he was removed
to gaol.
On Tuesday afternoon Mr. Jones, the secretary
to the North of England Iron Trade, was set upon by a
number of the ironworkers on strike PS he was proceed-
ing through Middlesborough, and mobbed and pelted with
