A PRESTON TRADESMAN CHARGED WITH THEFT.
Henry Gilgrass, coach builder, Back Lane, was charged with having stolen an overcoat, value 30/-, the property of Thomas Rigby, farmer, of Broughton. Mr. Edelston prosecuted and Mr. Cooper appeared for the prisoner.
About 9 o'clock on Tuesday night, the prosecutor stopped his trap at the High Street Tavern for the purpose of delivering milk. He went into the tavern leaving his coat on the seat of the trap outside. He returned in a few minutes, and found that his coat had gone. The following day, the prisoner pawned the coat with Mr. Alston, pawnbroker, Friargate, for 7s 8d, and was taken into custody and charged with theft on the Saturday afternoon by Detective Gardner.
In his defence, Mr. Cooper said the prisoner had previously borne an excellent character, but had lately been addicted to drink, and had scarcely been responsible for his actions. He was a respectable tradesman, and on that account he asked the Bench to deal as leniently as possible with him.
The Magistrates said that taking into account the statement made by the prisoner's solicitor on his behalf, the prisoner would be fined £3 or one Monty's imprisonment. The case would be recorded against him, and if he was brought before them again for a similar offence, he would be dealt with severely.
