20 January 1866 There is a report of the crime in the Staffordshire Advertiser Saturday 20 January 1866 p.7 col.6: JUVENILE DISHONESTY. - John Newell and Thomas Morris, both under twelve years of age, were convicted of stealing a small quantity of tobacco from the shop of Mr Hill, in Walsall Street. From enquiries made by the Bench it appeared that the boys had had whatever "good manners" they at one time possessed corrupted by "evil communications," and to remove them from such corrupting influences the Bench directed they should pass five years in Saltley Reformatory, after having served fourteen days' imprisonment.
24 August 1869 Absconded
