FIFTY YEARS IN PRISONS
Old Englishman Who Had Spent

An extraordinary spectacle was pre-

bearded man, 68 years Of age, who had
spent three parts of his life-half a
century-in prison for thefts which to-
day would call forth a comparatively
tr1fiing sentence. He was a laborer,
named George Lawrence, and was
found guilty of being an habitual
criminal. He also pleaded guilty to
having stolen a coat and other articles
from n office in Chelsea. The Judge.
commenting on some of the mans sen.
tences-ive years for stealing coats,
and three terms Of ten years for steal
ing forks, a box, and an overcoat re-
spectively-said that for any one of
those offenses he would nowadays

at first passed sentence Of three years

years preventive detention, saying it
was the minimum the law allowed IN
such a case. but later he decided that
the onense was n in which he could.
having regard to the past treatment OF.

months hard labor, thus avoiding the,
