CROWN COURT—THURSDAY, ()cr. 7. coiti
CONVICTION C,F A CLERGYMAN FOR A Stlfijioo,
ASSAULT UPON A CHILD.---The court opened this
ing at half-past nine, and proceeded to try
ed Aid
Alphonsus Wm. Henry Rose, aged 32, charge 0„
having, on the 27th of September, at Glossop, as".._
one Martha Thornley, with intent then and tbervevfogp
lently and against her will, feloniously and 10113
carnally to knowabuse
loose of
Mr. WILDMAN Hopened the case for the ',lvantr
tion, by stating that the defendant was a clergy ~
the Church of England, and that the 0: revoltioi
which he was charged was one of a nie..n.5",, of eleti
nature. The prosecutrix was of the tender %-been
years, and the offence was alleged to havev
mitted while defendant was on his way —e' b
having assisted at a service connected with the cbtireoo)
which he was a minister. The Learned Gentle
would not offer unnecessary evidence to the court, ept
would at once state that the first count of the indict° oi
had been abandoned, and thus the more porti°o
serious
the charge was done away. He had, as a lawyer, ties
to the conclusion—after the most careful consideranty
of the evidence—especially that of the medical get
man who had examined the female, that the allegt fot
in the first count could not be borne out, and it l'.,7tbe
this reason that count was abandoned, and with IJO
permission of the court they would proceed with tbi
charge of common assault only. He would add tl'` t
father of the child had that morning refused a large
of money from defendant to abandon the prosecuneill'oret
Defendant, by advice of his counsel, Mr. Alr:104,
pleaded Guilty, and the Learned Gentleman 94°1.00
the jury at some length in an under tone, but
tol,
not catch the purport of his observations.
The Learned CHAIRMAN, in passing senteneel tid
the defendant that he would not distress himself, oilt‘
shock the ears of those who heard him by unnecesLl
reverting to the revolting circumstances connectea;oo,
the offence of which he had been guilty. When,,o
ever, he looked into the age of the female, the 5
profession to which the defendant belonged, and t),e
.
fact that he was, at the time of the commission
yip
offence, returning from a service connected .e
the Church of England, he could not inve;oo,
more shocking or revolting case. The fie°glo
Gentleman proceeded to state that he wa, beesthe first count had been abandoned, as had dig
gone into and substantiated, it would have been his ivy
to have added hard labour to the punishment °i')
about to award. He should not have regretted t"s
far as it would have personally affected defendant'vfo'
he should have regretted the extra disgrace to °tele°
fession of which he was a member. The sentence eo'
Court was—that he be imprisoned in the couirtwiltberB
fur twelve calendar months.—[We understand that toti
were two other charges of the same shocking 131/
hanging over the head of this clerical culprit.]
