He (witness) was on the bridge, and defendant and his mother, were on the path below the bridge leading to the factory.—The Clerk: How do you know it was defendant; you said you did not see him ?

Brumwell charged Mary Price with allowing her horse to stray on the Winllan road, on the 13th May last.—Defendant said she had come up to see her son, and as he was not at home she had nowhere else to go to so she went to this road. —The Clerk: I see you are an old offender, here's a list of 10 previous convictions against you.- Defendant: Eh! No; It is not me, it must be another Mary Price (laughter).—The Clerk I am afraid you are too well known for the police to make any mistake.—Defendant: There are other Mary Prices (laughter).—P.C.

Rees said they received information from New Mills, and P.S. Meredith and himself went in search of prisoners, who were found in the Grainery at Cwm Farm. One of the defendants stated that they received permission to go there from a man who assisted them to get his perambulator and two children into the grainery.—P.S. Meredith stated that he enquired at Cwm if anyone had given prisoners permission to go to the grainery. They replied that they did not know there was anyone there. He had received complaints in the town about the conduct of prisoners.—Prisoners were sentenced to seven days' imprisonment.
