25 May 1861 There is a report of the crime in Aris's Birmingham Gazette Saturday 25 May 1861 p.5 col.2: A JUVENILE THIEF. -A lad of 14, named Thomas Everill, was charged at the Public Office yesterday with stealing a silver watch, the property of Mr. James Cressy, Insurance Buildings, Moor Street. On Wednesday last the prisoner went to the house of the prosecutor, where his mother was in the habit of going to work, and during the temporary absence of the inmates, he stole a watch from the kitchen mantel-shelf. He was apprehended the next morning by Detective Kelly, who found the watch in his pocket. The prisoner pleaded guilty. The lad had been previously convicted, and as it appeared that he had only recently been discharged from the Reformatory at Saltley, where he had been confined for three years, Mr. Kynnersley deferred sentence for a week, in order to make some enquiries of the Master of that establishment.
