Quarter Sessions, Tuesday April 4^th:- Before J.J. Lonsdale Esq.

Henry Jackson, alias Henry Turner, was placed in the dock, charged with stealing five banister brushes and one dusting brush, the property of W.H. Wainwright, value 8s., on the 23^rd November last. Prisoner pleaded not guilty.

Mr. Smith appeared for the prosecution. Prisoner was undefended.

Mr. W.E. Wainwright, sworn, examined by Mr. Smith, said he was a grocer residing in Folkestone. About 8 in the evening of the 8^th  of November he missed five brushes and one duster from the doorway of his shop; he saw them there all right at seven o`clock. Gave information to the police of his loss. Identified the brushes produced as those he lost; they were marked in his own handwriting.

Ellen June Baker, sworn, deposed she was the wife of W. Baker, residing in Folkestone. On the 8^th November last, between 8 and 9 p.m., the prisoner came and offered a banister brush for sale. Identified the one produced as the one she bought from him, having marked it with a key; he had 6 or 7 other brushes with him. Gave up the brush to P.C. Reynolds.

P.C. Reynolds, sworn, said: I am a constable of the Borough of Folkestone. On the 8^th November last I was on duty in Rendezvous Street about 6 o`clock in the evening. Saw prisoner in company with another man going towards the shop of Mr. Wainwright.

At this part of the examination the counsel and witnesses discovered they had all made an eror in the date, it being 23^rd instead of the 8^th November.

The witnesses were re-called.

P.C. Reynolds. Re-examined, said he made a note of it. He afterwards went to the Royal Engineers beershop and received a brush from the witness Baker. He then went to the Jolly Sailor public house and got another brush from Mrs. Bayley. Those produced identified by prosecutor.

Ann Bayley, sworn, said: I am the wife of Richard Bayley, and reside in Radnor Street. I recollect the prisoner coming to the bar of my house on the 23^rd November, a little before 8 at night. He had several brushes and asked me if I wanted to buy any. Gave him 6d. for the one produced. Gave it to P.C. Reynolds.

Ingram Swain, sworn, said: I am a police constable. On the evening of the 23^rd November, 1864, Mr. Wainwright`s apprentice came and gave information that some property had been stolen. I saw prisoner and a man named Tucker in the passage by the side of the Town Hall. Prisoner was carrying several brushes. I took him in custody and charged him at the station with stealing them. Searched him, but found nothing else upon him. He said he had received the brushes from another man, who had given them to him to sell to raise the price of his lodging.

The jury returned a verdict of guilty.

The learned Recorder, addressing the prisoner, said it appeared there was a previous conviction against him, in that court, in 1862, under the name of Jackson, to which he had pleaded guilty, and was sentenced to six months hard labour. He had also, he understood, been convicted twice since, proving he was a most hardened offender. He should therefore sentence him to twelve months hard labour.
