The prisoners, with three other boys who were not in custody, were seen between six and seven o'clock that morning entering places in Lena-gardens, Shepherd's-bush, and drinking milk from the cans which had been left for the customers. It also appeared that the prisoners had been out all night. Mr. Bennett inquired whether the prisoners were known. Redstall, the gaoler, said all the boys had been birched at that Court. Since the time Whittick was birched he had been committed to prison for three months. Mr. Bennett ordered Bryan to receive twelve strokes and Olive six strokes from a birch rod. He committed Whittick to prison for ten days, and ordered him to be detained in a reformatory until he was 16. ![]() Daily News, London, 27 May 1886Assize Intelligence.The Criminal Law Amendment Act.
