TWO YOUNG MEN ARE GIVEN CHANCE.
“ You lads are in a bad way; you’ve been mixing with a bad crowd,” said Mr *E. D. Mosley, S.M., to-day when Ernest Forbes, aged eighteen, and Jack Forbes, aged twenty-one, appeared for sentence on a charge of stealing four pieces of timber valued at £1 16s, the property of H. J. Otley. ‘‘A report reveals a state of things that is not to your credit,” said the Magistrate, in giving the young men some advice. “ The sooner you drop the crowd you’ve been associating with, the better for you. I’m going to give you one chance. You are both convicted and ordered to come up for sentence if called upon within the next two years.”
