DRUNK AND DISORDERLY
Elizabeth Mayor was charged with stealing 17/6
from the person of Septimus Ware, mechanic, of
the Imperial Hotel, St. John Street, on Saturday
evening. It was said that on that evening, the
complainant, along with a friend name Lewis, called
at the Imperial Hotel. They went into the back
parlour of the house and ordered two glasses of
beer. A little while after, two women came in. Soon
after, Lewis went into the yard and one of the women
followed, leaving Ware and Mayor in the room.
Whilst they were out Mayor put her hand in Ware's
pocket, and took all his money (17/6) out.
Ware happened to get hold of her hand and struck it,
when 1/6 fell to the floor. Whilst he was picking it up,
the prisoner ran out and the complainant followed her,
got hold of her, and she shouted, "Jim," whereupon
a man rushed out, knocked Ware down, and kicked
him so he could not walk. Ware called Lewis and a
witness to corroborate his evidence.
Mayor was committed to the Session for trial.
