CHARGE OF ASSAULT AND ROBBERY AT CANTERBURY.
John Powell and Louis James Miller were indicted for robbery with
violence from the person of Joseph Smith, at Canterbury, on the 3rd
January. Mr. Sankey prosecuted and prisoners were undefended.
It appeared that the prosecutor was met at about ten o'clock on the night
in question while going towards his home by the prisoners, one of whom
asked him to have a drink and also to accompany him home, both of which
invitations Smith declined. Miller then struck him several times in the
face, and Powell made a rush at him and snatched his pin— a silver one —
from his scarf. Prosecutor then went and found a police-constable, and
they discovered the accused at the "Angelo Castle," Butchery-lane, where
they lodged. Prosecutor recognised the men as those who had assaulted
him, and his pin was found in Powell’s coat. When charged before the
magistrates Miller said he was guilty of the assault, but not of
stealing the pin.
In defence the prisoners said that they met the prosecutor in a back
street, and be asked them whether they could get him any beer. They said
they could get some at their lodgings, and he accompanied them through
the principal streets towards the "Angelo Castle." If they had intended
to rob him it was not likely they would have taken Smith through the
chief thoroughfares. On the way prosecutor handed Powell his scarf pin
to pay for the drink. On arrival at the "Angelo Castle," the landlord
refused to admit Smith, as he was already the worse for drink. Miller
and prosecutor then had some words, and blows were exchanged, but they
afterwards made it up and went into their lodgings. Miller stated that
he struck Smith in self-defence.
The jury returned a verdict of Not Guilty against both prisoners. The
learned Judge remarked that Powell had been very lucky in his escape
from conviction. Powell was discharged.
Miller was then indicted on a second count for a common assault.
The prisoner, in defence, said that he told the magistrates that he
struck Smith in self-defence.
The jury convicted the accused, who was ordered by his lordship to pay a
fine of £1 and be imprisoned for fourteen days’ hard labour, and further
imprisoned until the fine was paid.
