A “FULL” MORNING
RUSH FROM DOCK TO ALTAR. 3 a.m. Drunk 10 a.m Before Magistrates 10.5 a.m Fined 10.15 a.m Married This was the busy morning spent at Birmingham, by a man who, thanks to a sympathetic police inspector, was able to get to church to be married with a minute or two to spare. “He is in a hurry to get away,” the inspector told the Bench, who hoard the case in five minutes, and fined the man £l, with eleven days’ imprisonment as the alternative. But the bridegroom had only 10s with him. “If you take that I shall have nothing to get married on,” he pleaded. He was allowed time to pay and, smiling broadly, rushed off to church.
