PETTY SESSIONS. Monday.
Thomas Monday, a tramp, was charged for that he on the 16th August,
1864, at Sheerness, did unlawfully entice away and detain a certain male
child named Thomas Hagger, with intent to deprive Sarah Hagger, the
mother, the possession of the said child. Sarah Hagger, a single woman, living at Maidstone stated:- In the month
of August 1864, I was lodging at the "Good Intent" beerhouse, Sheerness,
and had my child a boy, then two years old with me. About two days after
I went there the prisoner came to lodge at the same house. He had a boy
about five years old with him. He took great notice of my child, and
gave him little things. I did not think any harm of it, but after
lodging there five or six days he left on the 16th August, in 1864, and
I never saw my child from that day until this morning. The child
produced by Lacy Day is my child. I am quite certain of it, and I know
it by a mark on the right ear. I gave information to the police at the
time, and followed the prisoner to Gravesend, where I lost all trace of
him. I never saw him again until 7th June, inst., when I saw him in
Stone Street, Maidstone, and I caught hold of him and asked where my
child was. He said he did not know me nor anything of the child. He also
denied to the police in my presence that he had never been at Sheerness.
He afterwards admitted that he had taken my child and that it was alive
and in the custody of a woman at Bristol. Lucy Day stated:- I have been cohabiting with the prisoner almost twelve
months, but during that time I have been living at 4, Points, Pole, St.
Philip's, Bristol. He had the child claimed by Sarah Hagger when I first
lived with him. He told me it was his child, and the mother was dead. I
have kept the child ever since. Ha left Bristol an Easter Monday. This with the evidence of Mr. Supt. Green, who received prisoner in
custody, and which contained no very important facts was the case for
the prosecution, and the prisoner upon being called upon for his defence
stated as follows:- I've been a father and mother to it and kept it
clean and plenty of necessaries and clothed it, and I could do no more
than I have done for it. She lent me the child to take out begging, and
I paid her 6d. a day. Prisoner was committed to trial at the next Quarter Sessions. |
