ILMIALL.—A frosh-Tooling young uses, mimed
Thomas Edwards, was brought before the Sitting Ma-
gistrate, on a charge of being found in a state of va-
grancy.
Hirisfield, the officer, stated that on the previous night
he accompanied two Gentlemen of the Committee of the
Institution for the refuge of the Mastless, its London-
wall, to search the streets for the purpose of ascertaining
whether any, or what number, of poor persons who had
received relief from the Institution were about in the
streets. In the Course of their search they found the
prisoner lying asleep, half frozen, in Fleet-market. This
statement was corroborated by one of the Gentlemen of
the Committee. Inquiry having been made into the
rich and settlement of the vagrant, who appeared to
are had a great disinclination to laborinns employment,
the Magistrates ordered him to be sent to liridewell
for seven days, and from thence passed home to his'
parish.
We are informed. that so great are the wishes of the
Committee of the London-wall Institution so relieve the
sofferittes of those miserable wanderers. that the City is
pm-I:wird out in districts, which are baited nightly by
one or more gentlemen of the Committee, who relieve
those whom they consider as lit objects, and cause the
more confirmed vagrants to be apprehended and taken
before a Magistrate to be dealt with as he should think
proper.
