At these Sessions au important case of settle.
mcnt came on to be heard, in which the parish
of Kentford, Suffolk, were. Appellants, and the
parish of North Lopliain, Norfolk, Respondents.
—The appeal was against an order of removal
of a female pauper, named Lucy Wortedge, froni
North Lopham to Kentford. at which latter place,
it was contended, on the part of the R.espentients,
that a settlement had been acquired, by hiring •
and service for a year. To prove this, the pauper
herself, a girl of iiiteen years of ago, was called,
who stated, that a little before Michaelmas, three
Or four years ago, being with her mother at Ken.
stiorhall Petty Sessions, a person of the name of
.William Rotten came up and gave her mother a
sixpence, but did not tell her what it was for,. and
wentaway. Shortly after, a Air. Cooke, of Nitrify
Lopham; approached, and asked her mother if
she knew what the sixpence was gircti fur? and
her mother . answered in the negative. Cooke •
then told her that the sixpence was letting money,
and she (the pauper) was to go to Kentford, into
the service of a Mr. Luke Bowell, the brother Of
William Bowell, and he encouraged her to go. '
When the pauper and her mother returned home
to North Lapliam, the latter acquainted a Mr.
Worledge (grattilfather of the pauper) with what
I had happened, who said, she (the pauper) should
not go, assigning us a reason, that there might
be the same bad folks at Kentford• as"there were
at Lopham, in which expression be alluded cb
the circumstance of the pauper's mother baring
had a child by William Bowel!. lit cousequenco
ssithis determination of the grandfather, the six..
lowa yes soot -back. for Wilhain Bowell, and the
Igirl, to avoid going into the service in question,
was secreted by the mother in the pool's house
for nearly a to nth, when William Bawell's son
came, and, forcibly taking her away, without
hat or oboes, and literally in rags, shrew her into
jacast, and 114 this state she was cotiveygd to the
house of Luke Bowel!, at Konitird, where she
was taken in by a Mrs. ‘Voodslock (Luke B.,weit's
sister, and at that time his partner in the farming
;business) who remonstrated against the bringing
of ,such a-!. young stark naked wretch into lice. - •
