W-STREET.--
J. DAY.)
A footman in the service of .
Adams Es., of Ely-
place, Holborn, was placed at the bar beforeq Mr. Jar-
dine, under the following circumstances :
The inspector deposed that last evening, about half-
past seven o'clock, the prisoner came to him mad drunk,
anti commenced telling him something about a game at
skittles, a lot note, and his master's bank book. Having
learned with difficulty where the skittle-ground was,
h. (the inspector) sent for the landlord to as. if he knew
anything of the affair. On his arrival at the station,
from what be stated, it appeared that the prisoner had
been sent to post some letters, and at the same time to pay
into his master's batik a 10/. note. Before doing either
of these duties he must needs enter into a public-house,
where he met with some acquaintances. A game at
skittles was proposed, no doubt by a gang of sharpers,
who had caught sight of the bank book, and the chal-
lenge was immediately accepted by the prisoner. In a
short time, the beer being handed round in great quan-
tities, the prisoner was found in the skittle-ground dead
drunk, and his companions were gone. When he came
to himself he commenced raging at the landlord, telling
him that his house was a gambling house, and that he
had been robbed in it. that he would go to the station
and tell the police of it. The inspector did all in hie
power to quiet the stormy rage of the prisoner, but it
was of no avail, and when spoken to he only became the
more unmanageable, so he thought the best way would
be to lock him up.
Mr. JARDINE said that he would not punish him, as
he bad suffered sufficient, and there was no doubt he
would also lose his situation.
