COVENTRY CANAL,

AND BURTON-ON-TRENT.

COVENtftir, TUESDAY.....—A'special general meeting. of the
proprietorS'of-the Coventry: Canal Navigation. was held this
day at the Canal-office, for the purpose of taking into censi-
deration and' determining on the propriety of applying to
Parliament neat session for power to convert the canal into
a railway. The meeting was most 'numerously attended.
Among the proprietors present were Lord Somerville, the
Hon. and Rev. W: Somerville, W. S. Dugdale, Esq.; M.P.,
Francis Railton, Esq., the Rev. T. C. Adams, the Rey. G.

SECONDARIES' COURT, Oct. 1.
(Before Mr. Secondary Parr En.)
WELLS V. SHAW.
This was an action to recover the sum of 101.45. 4d., for
medicines supplied.
Mr. THOMAS appeared for the plaintiff, and contended that
his client was entitled to payment for medicines supplied in-
cidental to an operation.
The question raised in defence was, that the production of
the diploma was not proof, but that the beadle of the company
ought to be called to certify the seal of the company.
The Learned SEccesnAnY said that rule had been avoided
by law—the common seal of a company was admitted.
Mr. THOMAS said that the learned gentleman must have
begin asleep during the passing of the Act.
Verdict for the plaintiff.

the statements made to ihe meeting on the part of the Com-
mittee" of Management, it appeared that a company had been
formed to make a railway from the Oxford and Rugby Rail
way; near Southam. by Coventry, to Burton-on-Trent, which
company solicited the support of the Canal Company; and
the Committee recommended the project to the favourable
consideration of the canal proprietors, as in their judgment it
would be highly' beneficial to' the public, and conducive to
the interests of "the proprietors, as the projectors propose to
purchase the depots and warehouses at Coventry, together
with that portion of the canal which lies between Coventry
and Hawkesbury, an arrangement , which would in 'no way
affect the chain of communication between London and Man-
chester, The' Committee of Management therefore recom-
mend to the *meeting the adoption of the 'necessary resolu-
tions, to enable the Committee to give their cordial support
to the measure. _ '

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

GUILDHALI.

Daniel Garrett, who stands charged with having com-
mitted several robberies at railway termini, was further ex-
amined before Mr. Alderman Hughes Hughes. Mr. Alder-
man Lucas and the Lord Mayor elect were also on the bench.
Mr. Clarkson attended with Mr. Nash, from Messrs. Swain
and Co.'s, to prosecute on behalf of the Great Western Rail-
way, the South Western Railway, and the Brighton Railway;
Mr. Humphreys attended to support three or four charges on
the part of the Birmingham Railway ; and Mr. Thwaites
appeared en behalf of the prisoner.
Since the last examination great exertions had been used
by advertising the property found at the prisoner's lodgings,
and otherwise, to procure additional evidence.
Mr. Clarkson stated, in opening the case, that besides
showing that the prisoner was the person who stole Mr.
Prance's letter-case, for receiving which Ma7nard bad been
already committed, he proposed to charge him with stealing
some property belonging to Dr. Daniel, a medical gentleman
residing at Bath, and to Mr. Winter, of Motcombe-street.
It would be remembered, that Mr. Prance's loss
occurred on the Bth of July, and that on the 12th
he received an anonymous letter that his letter-case
and contents were safe, and might be recovered for a
liberal reward. By showirig that this letter was in the hand-
writing of the prisoner, he should fix him with the posses-
sion of the property four days after it was stolen. On the

This comnimunication produced a long discussion.
Mr. F. llAiLno proposed that the Committee of this Com-
pany shall be, and they are hereby empowered to sell that
part of this canal, buildings, and land which lie between the
city of Coventry and the junction of this canal with the
Oxford canal at Hawkesbury, including the Company's
wharf, warehouses, land, buildings, and property at Coventry,
or to grant a lease of the same for any term of years, or to
convert the same into a railway, and to apply to Parliament,
if necessary, for the purpose.
The Rev. G. WooncocK seconded the resolution, which
was unanimously agreed to.
The CHAIRMAN then proposed that the support of this
Company be given to the projected'Oxford; Coventry, and
Burton-on-Trent Junction Railway Company, which, was

18th a second anonymous letter was sent, complaining that no
attention had been paid to the first, and requiring a reward
to be immediately advertised, or the property would be placed
out of the control of the writer. An advertisement :was ac-
cordingly published on the 23d of July, which produced a
third letter from the anonymous correspondent, stating that
his agent was at Sandhurst, and would write to Mr. Prance.
This introduced the agent, Maynard, upon the scene, who
produced the stolen property. He should prove these three
letters to be in the handwriting of the prisoner, by calling
Captain Culpepper, in whose service the prisoner was for a
time. lie should show that the prisoner visited Maynard in
the Compter the day after he was apprehended, and that
when the prisoner was taken into custody he made that
Clesperate resistance which might be expected from a man
who was conscious that he was deeply involved. Mr. Clark-
son adverted to a miserable device which had been resorted

CLERKEIVIVELL.

Sarah Hurling, a woman, 26 years of age, and not three
feet high, was charged with stealing a jug and one penny
from a child, five years old, the daughter of Mr. Langmore,
a respectable tradesman in Woodbridge-street, Clerkenwell.
The offence is a very aggravated one. The girl had been
sent by.its mother for half a pint of porter, and on the road
to a public-house the prisoner stopped her, and pointing to
the residence of a gentleman, requested her to go there and
ask for " Sarah," at the same moment taking from the child
the jug and the 'money. When she returned the prisoner
had left, and from the description given by the child of the
prisoner, the latter was apprehended while offering the jug
for sale to a marine store dealer.
The constable, in answer to Mr. Combo, said that he had
reason to believe he could bring forward several other charges
of felony against the prisoner, who consequently was re-
manded.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
Thomas Smith, about 40 years of age, wearing a very long
beard, whose appearance denoted the very extreme of human
wretchedness and defilement, and clad in filthy tatters
swarming with vermin, was charged with vagrancy.
Police-constable C No. 127, stated that between four and
five o'clock yesterday afternoon he saw the prisoner in
riccadilly, sitting on the step of a door; a crowd of persons
were around him, attracted by his singular appearance, and
many, compassionating the miserable condition he was in,
gave him money. Witness, knowing him to be an old
offender, took him into custody.
Mr. HARDWICKE—Then the prisoner is a known beggar?
Constable—Yes, sir; he has been about the town for years;
he does not ask for anything, but places himself in the most
public thoroughfares to excite charity, and generally reaps
a pretty good harvest, which he speedily dissipates in
drunkenness.
Mr. HARDWICK—He will find that he is not to subsist by
public mendicancy. To the prifoner—How many times have
you been sent to prison ? Prisoner—About once as I can re-
collect ; but as I may be mistaken I'll say I'm quite sure its
not more than twice.
Mr. HARDWICK asked if such was the case ?—Wilks, the
gaoler, said he had been committed from this Court dozens li
of times.
Mr. HARDWICK asked the prisoner if he had any home or
habitation 7—Prisoner said he lived in Field-lane, Holborn,
and worked for his living when he cauld get anything la do.
He was committed fon ten days. On his reception at the
prisOn his hair will be cut short, and having been placed in
a warm-bath and strictly cleansed, clean and wholesome
apparel will be supplied to him.
Bosina Bird, a strong, gaunt female, was charged with
committing a most violent assault on Mary Anne Miller,
whereby her life was endangered.
It appeared that between three and four o'clock this morn-
ing, a quarrel having ensued between them at Hyde Park-
corner, the prisoner attacked Miller in a savage and furious
manner, tore her c'othes from off her, and, after inflicting
several severe kicks about the lower part of her person,
seized her head between her hands, and beat it violently
and for many times, first against the iron railings of the park,
and then the flag• stones of the foot-pavement.• The police
coming up terminated the affray, and the prisoner having
been taken to the station-house, it was found necessary to
procure surgical aid for Miller, who was unable to attend this
morning.
The prisoner was remanded until Wednesday next.

to by some of the prisoner's friends or companions, who had
sent to the females of Mr. Nash's family a letter containing
dreadful threats, if he pursued his charges against the pri-
soner. It would completely fail in Sits object, for Mt. /Cash
would persist in endeavouring to the utmost to bring to jui7
tice not-only the prisoner, but all his'companions.
Captain Culpepper, of Stanhope-street, was then sworn.
He said the prisoner was in his service as butler for the sea-
son of 1843. He saw his handwriting, but not frequently ;
but he had a recollectien of his hand, and had received a let-
ter from him respecting giving him a character.
Cross. examined by Mr. Thwaites—He used to disburse
'small sums occasionally, and make out bills, which witness
settled and tore up. Never saw the prisoner write, and did
not swear to his writing.
Mr. Alderman H. HUGHES said no person swears to hand-
Writing, they only swear to their belief.
Captain Culpepper said that was exactly the case. To the
best of his belief two of the letters produced were written by
the prisoner. To the other he. could not speak.
Cross-examined—He received a good character of the 'pri-
soner from Lord Falkland, and gave the prisoner a good cha-
racter when he discharged him. Had never seen him write.
Could not say that he was able to write, or that the bills th.;
prisoner brought to him had not been written by one of his
fellow-servants ; but he presumed the letter was written by
prisoner, and it was from that letter he spoke more particu-
larly as to the prisoner's handwriting, because the prisoner
said it was his writing.
Joseph Collard, the Superintendent, was next examined.
He said the prisoner resisted with great violence till Mr. Nash
spoke of pistols. Among the things he found at the pri,
soher's lodgings was a pencil-case with a chequered wafer
stamp at the end, which corresponded with the seal on the
three letters produced.
Mr. Clarkson said this served to fix upon the prisoner the
writing 'of the letter, respecting which the captain expressed
a doubt.
Mr. Thwaites said it did no such thing. These pencil-
cases were manufactured by the gross exactly alike.
Collard continued—He apprehended Maynard on the sth
of August, and on the 6th he saw the prisoner come out of
the Giltspur-street Compter, where Maynard was. •
George Edis Evans, a turnkey at the Compter, identified
the priSoner as a peron who had an interview with Maynard
on the 6th. The prisoner gave his name as John Smith fur
entry in the visitor's book. Maynard was short. of money,
and the prisoner told him be might have 5/. if he liked. The
prisoner replied, a sovereign would be sufficient, and it was
given to witness to put to his account, prisoners, before con-
viction, having the option to support themselves. The pri-
soner and Maynard appeared to be well acquainted.
Mr. Nash deposed to finding some pieces of paper in the
grate at Maynard's house, in Howland-street, which, upon
being pasted together, appeared to be a rough draft and
nearly a verbatim copy of the letter dated the 12th of July,
which Captain Culpepper had identified as in the prisoner's
writing.
Louisa Ludeman, of 19, Queen-street, Edgware-road, iden-
tified the prisoner as having lodged at her father's house till
the 12th of August, when he went away. She had seen
Maynard in Newgate, and recognised him as a person who
called four or five times to see the prisoner Garrett. May-
nard called within a week before he (Maynard) was appre-
hended.

William Graham, an active- young man, was brought be-
fore Mr. Cottingham, charged with a very daring robbery in
a watchmaker's shop.
It appears that on the preceding day the prisoner walked
into a watchmaker's shop in the London-road, and pointing
out a watch exhibited for sale in the window, requested to
know the price. It was handed to him for his inspection
and having agreed to give the price set upon it, he returned
it into the hands of the shopman, desiring him to wind it up
and set it going, as he was in a hurry to be off to business.
This having been done without loss of time, the watch was
returned to the prisoner, who, placing it in his fob with one
hand, began rummaging about in bis trousers pocket, as if
searching for the money to close the bargain. Instead, how-
ever, of paying for the watch, the prisoner made a sudden
" bolt" out of the shop, and ran down the London-road with
great swiftness, pursued by the shopman calling out "Stop
thief." When the prisoner got to the corner of Market-
street, he ran down the turning, but the number of his pur-
suers having increased he was at length stopped, and when
subsequently searched the complainant's watch was found in
his possession. •
When questioned by the magistrate, the prisoner said
that at present he should decline making any defence, as he
supposed the case must go before a jury.—He was then coin-
; mated.

Mr. Alderman H.. HUGHES asked Collard if he had ever
seen the prisoner at the railway ?—Collard replied he had
not, but there were other persons who had.
Mr. Clarkson said that was as far as he could carry that
case to-day. He proceeded to the second charge.
Dr. John Bamfylde Daniel, of Bath, deposed that he
was a traveller en the Great Western Railway in the early
part of August, and he lost -a black leather portmanteau,
containing apparel to the value of several pounds. The
train came in at dusk, and there was some confusion in
getting the articles out of the luggage van. There were
several portmanteaus. He saw a man call to a porter to
hand him one which witness believed to be his own, and he
went round to the person who had obtained possession of it.
This was the prisoner. He asked the prisoner whether he
had his own portmanteau. The prisoner replied, "there can
be no mistake about this." Witness rejoined that it was
very like his portmanteau. The prisoner said nothing
farther, but got into a cab and was driven away. Witness
went back to the luggage receptacle to see if his portman-
teau was there, but could not find it. He had a strong re-
collection of the prisoner's features, but he had no spectacles
on then. _ _ _

unanimously adopted.
It was intimated that most of the canal proprietors presen
consented to act on the Provisional Committee of the Oxford
Coventry, and Burton-on-Trent Junction Railway, and tha
Mt. Dugdale consented to become the chairman.

The prisoner was ordered to take off his spectacles and put
on his hat.
The witness said he was sure the prisoner was the same
person. He had not seen him on the road to London, but
only in the terminus.
Mr. Alderman IL HUGHES supposed he looked at him
closely because he suspected be was taking away his trunk.
The witness said it was just so. He kept him in sight as
long as he could.
Mr. Clarkson remarked that the tracing of the contents of
the trunk to the prisoner's lodging would prove that be was
not mistaken.
Witness identified two gold watches, some gloves, and
other articles, of which he delivered a list. He also deli-
vered in a list of articles which had not been found, of' the
value of 10/.
The cross-examination elicited nothing material, and in
re-examination the witness stated that there were some cards
with his address in the portmanteau.
Mr. Alderman H. HUGHES said, if the portmanteau had
been taken in mistake, or found, the finder could have had
no 'difficulty in discovering the owner.
The witness—Certainly not. •
Collard proved the finding of the articles identified by the
doctor. He brought them from the prisoner's lodgings, at 1
No. 40, Great North-street, Lisson-grove. He produced also
the portmanteau; which he recovered on Saturday last from
the possession of a Mr. Hawkins of Kennington-green.
Mrs. Noble, of Great North-street, deposed that the room
where the articles were found was rented by the prisoner. He
was introduced by a man who said he was a neighbour, but
who was a stranger. She had no reference. The prisoner,
when she asked his name, said he would tell her that another
time. He came to her on the 13th of September.
Mr. Hawkins; a wine merchant, at Kennington-green,
said he knew the prisoner from having recently lodged at
the Cock Tavern at Kennington, where witness occasionally
spent an evening. He lodged there for a short time about a
Month ago. The prisoner said he bad been travelling, and
was going on the continent, and was encumbered with too
much luggage. He wished to dispose of some, and took wit-
ness up into his room and offered him vaaious articles for sale.
Witness bought them for 1/. 18s. 6d. Besides the portman-
teau (identified by Dr. Daniel) there was a carpet bag and A
hat box marked " Winter." The prisoner said he had lost a
bunch of keys, and had been obliged to break open all his
trunks. Witness thought this was probable. There were
some articles of apparel in the lot which he had since dis-
posed of. Hearing of the railway robberies, he thought it
proper to'communicate with Mr. Collard: •
After some desultory conversation, as there was no chance
of going through the other cases that evening, Mr. Alderman
Hughes Hughes adjourned the hearing till the next day.
BOW-STREET.
Mrs. Challis, a tobacconist, residing
.in Drury-lane, was
charged, at the instance of the Commissioners of her Ma-
jesty's Customs, with havine• in her po.ssession a gallon of
brandy and 91bs. of tobacco, lhe same being smuggled goods.
William Byford stated, that he was an officer of Excise,
went on the 3d of September to the house of the defendant,
for the purpose of examining the stock, &c. He was pro-
ceeding to describe the discovery of the smuggled goods,
when the defendant pleaded Guilty to the charge.
Mr. TwyFonn—Very well, then, speak the truth, and
tell the best story you can.
Mrs. Challis then proceeded 'to state that she had been en-
trapped into the purchase of the goods by a foreigner, and
was not aware of the serious nature of her offence. She said,
that although the business was carried on in the name of her
husband, he had no connexion with it, but occupied a dif-
ferent situation.
Portbury, who attended from the office of the Soli-
citor to the Customs, observed that it was simply the object
of the Commissioners to teach others, by example, the liabi-
lities which such practices involved. It was in the power of
• the magistrate to mitigate the penalty to one-third of its ex-
tent, if he thought proper to do so.
It appeared that the full penalty consisted of the value of
• the brandy, 14s, _ 7id., the duty thereupon 5/. 14s. 9d ;
value of the tobacco, 4s. 3d. ; the total of which, 61. 13s. 7d.,

namely, 20/. Os. 9d.

The prisoner, who has a very peculiar way of expressing
himself, declared that he could-prove-an alibi; but the pawn-.
broker satisfied the Court that he had not been mistaken by
a very successful imitation of the prisoner's style and voice
when pledging the property.—He was committed for trial.

she had ruined him by her extravagance, and pawned all
he had.
Mr. BALLANTINE said it was clear the prisoner Was a bad
tempered fellow, and no one with his disposition should be
in any place involving the slightest authority. For the
assault on his wife he should pay a fine of 51.. or be imprisoned
for two months, besides giving security to keep the peace in
future.

The prisoner was locked up in default.
The worthy Magistrate subsequently ordered five shillings
to be given to the complainant, and a like sum to the poor
but worthy man who had relieved her in her necessities.
Pearson—No, yeur worship ; I am obliged to you. My
wife and I can earn our little morsel and eat it in peace.
Give it all to the poor woman.
Mr. BALLANTINE highly commended the noble spirit which
exhibited itself in so low a state, and was sure the honest fel-
low's own emotions were the best reward he could receive.
WORSHIP-STREET.

COWlNG.—George Reynolds, a middle-aged man, of re-
spectable connexions, was placed at the bar for further exa-
mination, charged with having been found engaged in the
manufacture of spurious money.
It appeared from the evidence a Sergeants Teakle and
Price, of the B division, that in consequence of intbrination
they had received they proceeded on the morning of Thurs-
day last to a house in White Bear-gardens, Hackney-road,
and on knocking at the door they were admitted by the pri-
soner, whom they instantly secured before he had time to re-
cover from the panic occasioned by their sudden appearance.
After searching his pockets, in which they found three coun-
terfeit half-crowns, they proceeded to a room on the first floor,
where they discovered a plaister-of-Paris mould for coining
half-crowns upon a trivit in front of the fire, and also a smaller
mould for the manufacture of shilling pieces, upon the
side of the stove. On a further search they afterwards disco-
vered a quantity of base metal, a crucible, several files, and
all the other requisite implements and accessories for carrying
on the nefarious occupation. The prisoner was then con-
veyed to the station-house, on reaching which he stated that
distress had driven him to the commission of such practices,
in which lie had been engaged only about four or five weeks.
The prisoner was recognised by the officers of the Court as
having formerly held a highly respectable position in society,
but they bad lost sight of him for some years, and were un-
acquainted with the disastrous circumstances that had re-
duced him to such an ignominious condition.
The prisoner, who declined offering any. defence, was fully
committed, but he will be brought up again for the comple-
tion of the depositions.

LIABILITY OF ROYAL PALACES
TO PAYMENT OF POOR-RATES.
Tuesday, at a Petty Sessions of the Justices acting in
and for the Staines division of the county of Middlesex, held
at the Red Lion Inn, Hampton, the proceedings in the long-
pending dispute between the Crown and the parish of Hamp-
ton, as to the liability of the residents in Hampton Court
Palace to be assessed to the poor-rates, was further gone into,
The magistrates present were Messrs. C. Devon. T. Marriott,
T. Paterson, and - Scott.
Mr. Kent appeared, as before, as solicitor for the parish of
Hampton ; and Mr. Pemberton, the Crown Solicitor, being
absent in a distant part of the country, Mr. Jones, his chief
clerk, attended for him.
Mr. Kent said he attended that day on behalf of the pa-
rish of Hampton to support certain summonses, which the
Bench had been pleased to issue against twenty-four of the
inmates of Hampton Court Palace, for non-payment of a rate
of one shilling in the pound for the relief of the poor, made on
the 2d of May, 1839 ; and also for nineteen other rates which
had been made subsequent to that period; and when he had
proved that the rate was a legal one, unless the parties so
summoned showed good cause why they should not pay the
amount assessed upon them, it would be his duty to apply
to the Bench for distress warrants against them. He then
called
Mr. Thomas Fisher, who deposed that he was one of the
overseers of the parish of 'Hampton, and that he was present
when the rate of the 2d of May, 1839, was signed by Captain
Carpenter and Mr. Jesse, two magistrates of the county, on
the 4th of May, 1839.
Mr. DEVON said it would be necessary to go into each rate
separately, and also to see that the different parties summoned
were named in the rate-book.
Mr. Horn (Magistrates' Clerk) then read the names on the
summonses, with the amounts claimed on the rate of May,
1839, as follows :-Lady Emily Ponsonby, 31. 17s. ; Sir Geo.
Seymour, 2/. 14s. 6d. ; Mrs. Augusta Dorothea Henrietta
Fitzgerald; 11. 18s.; Captain James William Cuthbert,
21. 7s. ; Mrs. Arabella Talbot, 11. 18s. ; Miss Charlotte Thorn-
ton, IL 18s. ; Lady ..4.lbena Cumberland, 21.35. ; John Hildvard,
Esq.,ls,lBs. ; Mrs. Margaret Vesey, 21.35. ; Charles Nathaniel
Bayley, 2L 13s. 9d. ; Miss Frances Margaret Walpole, 2/. 7s. ;
Lord George Seymour, 21. 7s. ; Mrs. Mary Eden, U. 18s. ;
Mrs. Caroline Sheridan, 11. 14s. ; Miss Anne Reynett, 1/. 10s.;
Lady Sarah Montgomery, 1/. 10s. ; Miss Anne Smart, 15s. 6d.,;
Mr. Moreson, 45.; Mr. ghumack, Bs. ; Sir Horace Beauchamp
. Seymour, 2/. ILs.; Miss Elizabeth Chester, 21. 7s. ; Sir James
Reynetr2/. 11s. ; George Golding, ss. ; Wm Cleare, 17s. 3d.
Mr. Kent said he had now only to ask the Bench to issue
distress warrants against all the parties summoned. He had
come prepared to apply to the Bench to do so also, in some
cases, on all the other nineteen rates which had accrued since
1839; but should the Bench entertain an opinion which a
former Bench had expressed, that he ought only to take dis-
tress warrants on one rate, instead of twenty, he would bow
to that opinion, provided he did not by so doing compromise
his right afterwards to apply for the issue of distress warrants
on those rates.
Mr. Horn explained that when Mr. Kent applied to a
former Bench for distress warrants on all the rates, the Ma-
gistrates then present doubted their power to issue warrants
on the eleven rates included in the mandamus issued by the
Court of Queen's Bench. That point had, however, been set
at rest by the opinion of Mr. Montague Chambers, which lie
had taken on the part of the Magistrates, and also by the
opinion of Sir Frederick Thesiger taken on behalf of the
Crown.
Mr. Jones said he had the Attorney-General's opinion with
him, and handed it to Mr. Devon.
Mr. Horn offered to read it aloud, so that all the members
of the Bench might hear it.
Mr. Jones objected to its being publicly read. A copy of it
would have been sent to the Bench, but Mr. Pemberton did
not feel himself justified in recommending it to the Crown to
do so. Besides, it might get into the newspapers.
After some discussion, the Bench then ordered the distress
warrants on the rate of May, 1839, to issue against all the
parties.

The arrivals of English Wheat, fresh up since Monday
coastwise, have been moderately good. By land-carriage,
and sample, however, they have proved limited. On the
whole, the stands were fairly supplied, yet thedemand arising
from the attendance of buyers, being tolerably numerous, was
steady, and previous rates were supported in every instance. We
had very few samples of fine Foreign Wheat on show. Selected
qualities were in steady request at full prices. In other kinds,
exceedingly little was doing. From abroad scarcely any
orders have been received this week for the purchase of corn
under lock ; hence the demand ruled inactive, at about late
rates. The best Grinding Barley was in fair request, but all
other kinds were a slow inquiry. In Malt very little was
doing, at late rates. Foreign Oats were a slow sale, and
rather cheaper. In English and Irish a fair business was
doing. Beans, Peas, and Flour were quite as dear.

was fined Is. Gd., being three times the value of the walnuts,
and 13s. Gd. costs. In default of payment he was ordered to
be committed to prison for 14 days, though his mother, a
