but upon going outside he recognised some of them
as being the sons of neighbours. The iron cover-
ing was broken and lying in the road. He accused
one of the young gentlemen of the damage, when
the prisoner was then given into custody, and the
complainant, at the station, offered to relinquish
the charge if ha would apologise, but he refused,
and denied that he had taken the plate from off
the opening.
• Mr. Martin, for the defence, declared that there
had been a misunderstanding iu the words uttered
by the prisoner. He admitted that he had picked
it up, and had thrown it into the road. He denied
having said he had done it.
Mr. Ingham said the case came within the mean-
ing of the Police Act, for it was an offence to leave
open any vault or cellar, as well as not having it
properly secured. He (Mr. Ingham) had no rea-
sonable doubt that the prisoner had pulled up the
iron covering finding it was not properly secured,
and had thrown it into the road. He gave the pri-
soner] credit for admitting the fact in the first
instance, and if he had followed up that gentle.
manly conduct by apologising and promising to
repair the damage, nothing more would have
taken place. He fined him 205., and he wished all
the householders in that neighbourhood to under-
stand that Mr. Boyler was also liable for his ser-
vants not having securely fastened the plate.
The money was paid.
