HIGHWAY ROBBERY OF A DEAF AND
DUMB MAN.
————————— |
| A CASE of rather singular character was brought on
today at the police office, which excited considerable attention in court. A
respectable-looking young man, named Alexander M'Cullan, who is the foreman of
the printing establishment of Mr. Scraggs, was going home about 8 o'clock on
Wednesday night, when he was met by two soldiers of the 67th regiment, in the
neighbourhood of the military barracks, and assaulted in a most violent manner.
One of the prisoners, named Patrick Donnelly, seized him by the throat, while
the other fellow rifled his pockets ; but fortunately they were disappointed in
their expectations, as all the property he had on his person were two pence, a
piece of tobacco, and a key. The prisoners took the money and the tobacco, but
left the key in his possession. |
| The plaintiff, not withstanding that he is both deaf and
dumb, appeared to be a shrewd, intelligent person, and answered readily and
properly to the questions which were put to him by Mr. Good, a cabinet-maker,
through the medium of the “dumb alphabet”. |
| Informations were ordered to be taken against the
prisoners. |
|
| A SAILOR, named John Resor, appeared at the Police
Office on Wednesday, to prosecute a woman of disreputable character who resides
in Godsill's-lane, for having stolen a purse containing £3 10s from him on the
previous night. What renders this robbery most heartless is the circumstance
that the plaintiff was totally wrecked a few days since, in the ship Henrietta,
at the Coast of New Ross, and with thirteen of his unfortunate shipmates, was
taken from the wreck. The remainder of the crew, amounting to fourteen persons,
were lost. The plaintiff stated that he was induced to visit this place in
ignorance of the character of the woman, and that the money taken from him left
him totally destitute. |
