YOUTHFUL PRISONER
JURY’S RECOMMENDATION [ Per Press Association. ] WELLINGTON, Feb. 11. A very strong recommendation to mercy because of the prisoner’s youth, was added by a jury in the Supreme Court to-night when it found Henry Hedley Briant Maunder, labourer, aged 22, guilty on a charge of being a rogue and a vagabond. The basis of the charge against Maunder was an allegation that he had habitually consorted with reputed thieves since his convictions at Palmerston North on February 16, 1935, and May 17, 1935, for being idle ana disorderly. More than 20 police officers gave evidence for the Crown. The prisoner was remanded for sentence.
