THE SOCIAL EVIL IN THE PARKS.—Emma Andrews
Elizabeth Lake, Elizabeth Haines, and Amelia Hubble,
prostitutes, were charged with being drunk, riotous, fight-
ing, and using obscene language at Buckingham-gate.
Sergeant John Davis, 19 A, said that at 2 o'clock that
morning he was in Birdcage-walk, and saw prisoners with
eight or ten other prostitutes, calling one another names,
fighting, and making a noise. He ordered them to go away.
They moved across the road, Andrews calling out with an
oath, " You can't follow us now, we aro off your beat."
Shortly after he hear the same noise, and found them
f gliting again and using bad language, whereupon with
assistance they were taken into custody. He know them
all as frequenters of the park ; they were very noisy. Lake
been had at Bow-street last week.

• George Mew, 72 A, corroborated the last vvituess. They
took two Prisoners each. Andrews, who was known by
the name of Oxfordshire Emma, was very riotous all the
way to the station. She could fight like a man, and was a
deal of trouble.
Andrews accused this witness of taking liberties with
her on Sunday in the Park, and ascribed her presence
before the magistrate this morning to her refusal. She was
struck by a soldier and woman, and returned the blow.
Lake had nothing to say, and the other two, who live in
Drury-lane, said they were there quite by accident.
The police proved that Andrews had been before con-
victed, and then she made an indecent charge against the
constable.
Andrews was sentenced to fourteen days and Lake to
seven days' hard labour. Tho others were discharged
with a caution.
