Described by Chief Detective Kemp as human parasites, two young men, Michael Boyle and Bernard Hayward both with several aliases and police records, were at the Court to-day, sentenced to one month’s hard labour each. The charge was playing a game of chance with a coin. They met a young man from Canterbury and initialed him into the mysteries of selling a horse, relieving him of nineteen shillings, when two detectives interrupted the game.
