Saturday 10 Apr 1819 (p. 4, col. 1-6) GAOL DELIVERY. [continued] JOSEPH PATTEN, aged 60, charged upon the oaths of John SCOTT and Luke SHEARER with feloniously stealing two cock chickens and one hen at Botcherby. Luke SHEARER is a servant to Mr. SCOTT of Botcherby, about a half a mile from Carlisle. On the 7th of Feb. as he was on the road to his master's house, about half past two in the morning, he met the prisoner with two cocks and one hen; it was moonlight. Court.—Were they chickens?—Yes, they were slags. The legs of the cocks were tied together, and prisoner had slung them over his shoulder. Witness knowing them to be his master's property, asked where he got them, who replied, that he would give them to witness if he would let him go; witness then took them from him; he said he got them from a house at the lower end of Botcherby—and he took them more for need than any thing else: he also said that he would never do the like again if they would let him go: John TOPPING was with witness. Court.—How came you up so late?—I was setting a lad down to Carlisle. Court.—'Tis is miserable case, and a miserable old man. GUILTY.—One month's imprisonment. RICHARD HODGSON, aged 18, pleaded guilty to the charge of stealing in the dwelling house of Mr. W. ATKINSON, of Penrith, innkeeper, bank notes and a post bank bill, value £10, the property of Lt.-Col. JOHNSON.—DEATH.—Transported for life. Against Edmund BURROW, charged with killing rabbits in an open warren; Betty, the wife of Edward GILL, charged with pawning a bed-gown and shift, and stealing potatoes in St. Mary's Workhouse; and George ROUTLEDGE, (out on bail) No Bills were found; and they were, at the close of the business, discharged by proclamation, together with Margaret GRAHAM, and John JOHNSON. TOWNSEND and GALE are left for execution, and there is much reason to fear that they will suffer the awful penalty of the law.
