Examinations - Henry Catlin and Meshack Gollins of St Paul Bedford

27 May 1842

From: 1842 To: 1842

Henry Catlin - he never stole the money. He is as innocent as a lamb. He did not see them with any money nor get any bag. There were 30 of them as near as he can guess playing about. They saw the girls coming down against the bottom of the six and forty and they all ran up after them and they ran away. When they got about half way up the road they catched them. Sophia Haydon said don't meddle with us, there's a good boy. He did not undo the bag, but one of the girls dropped the flag and this boy picked it up and gave it to them. Meshack Gollins - he knows nothing else.
