Mountain Ash Police Court.
Mountain Ash Police Court. Thursday, June 8—Before Mr. R. A. Griffith (Stipendiary). Drunk. Margaret Partridge, at Mountain Ash, 9s. or 7 days. What Mrs. Keepings Kept. Mary Keepings, general dealer, of Penrhiw- ceiber, was summoned at the instance of the Public Prosecutor, for having in her possession unlawfully an identity certificate belonging to Mrs. Grace Thomas, on 4th April.—Grace Thomas, residing at 7 Belle Vue Terrace, stated that her husband was serving with the Royal Engineers. In March last she went to Mrs. Keepings' shop.' Defend- ant told her she could have some gro- ceries if she would leave her ring paper there as a security for the debt. She consented to this course. Mrs. Keep- ings accompanied her to the local post oi'fice and carried the ring paper there, and there handed it to witness for the purpose of raising her allowance. Wit- ness would again have some groceries, and Mrs. Keepings would hold the ring paper &s a security. This transaction was repeated.—Joseph Lewis, post- master at Penrhiwceiber, who attended on subpoena, spoke to Mrs. Keepings coming to the post office, he believed, on April 6th. She held the ring paper (produced) in her hand, and asked wit- ness if it was any use to her. Witness replied: "Not a bit," and asked her how did she come to have it. She re- plied that Mrs. Thomas gave it to her as a security for groceries. Witness told her to hand it back to Mrs. Thomas, and that she kept it in her possession at some danger to herself. Witness eventually returned the paper to the paymaster at Chatham. The defendant, giving evidence, said that Mrs. Thomas asked her for "shop," and she eventually gave her goods, Mrs. Thomas leaving the ring paper there. Witness told her the paper was no good to her. Witness denied having asked for the paper at all. Mrs Thomas owed her R2 8s. for goods.—The Sti- pendiary said he was quite satisfied that defendant did receive the paper as a security for debt. There were some extenuating circumstances. It was the first case of the kind to come before him. It might not be generally known that it was really a serious offence. Defendant was liable to a penalty of £ 20, but the fine in this case would only be 20s.

Aberdare Printer's Death.!
Aberdare Printer's Death. We regret to record the death of Mr Henry Thomas, printer, which occurred at his house, Glyn Cottage, Cardiff Road, on Whit-Mondav. He was the elder son of Mrs. Thomas and the late Mr. William Thomas (Morfab). Mor- fab, who was a bard of some distinction was employed on the Aberdare Canal by the Marquis of Bute and the late Lord Merthyr for many years. Mr. Henry Thomas, too, had literary gifts, and took much interest in Welsh liter- ature. He had been ailing for some time, and suffered from asthma and bronchitis, but continued working as a compositor at the "Leader" Office up to 2 month ago, when he was obliged to give up. Some years ago he was in business on his own account in Mer- chant Street, but for a period prior to his illness was employed at the office of this paper. He was an original character, a warm-hearted friend, and a faithful and diligent workman. He was 49 years of age. He was a mem- ber of Ynyslwyd Baptist Church. Gen- j eral sympathy is extended to his widowed mother and brother.

Poor puss. It was not the Trecynon Co-operative i outing that I had in view when I re- ferred to the Builth trip last week. The party that Eafiles honoured with his attention went to another Spa. Professor Popcorn will shortly open an academy of music somewhere in Cwmdare. Bumper's dog ate a pound of sausages the other evening. The front door was open at the corner house. The good lady was gossipping, and the good dog devouring. Moral, keep the door closed. Jack's sweetheart sprained her wrist last week. His knowledge of ambulance will be useful. Now, Tom, get that piano tuned or we shall have some stormy outbursts again.
