STEALING FOWLS AT DISS
Thomas Colman (17), fowl dealer, and Jeremiah Colman (60), gardener, were charged with stealing nine ducks, of the value of 11s., the property of William Michael Hawes, at Diss, on the 8th May. As the younger prisoner pleaded guilty, Mr. Mayd, who held the brief for the prosecution, withdrew the charge against the old man, he being of the opinion that if the case went to the jury there would be no conviction. Jeremiah Colman was accordingly acquitted, and the young man sentenced to six weeks’ imprisonment.
