Note on Husband: Francis Henry BELLRINGER (2)

H13 June 1903-

On 6 June 1903, having retired, Francis was awoken by the sound of a police whistle. Looking out of his window he saw police constable Skelton in the street. He discovered his shop window was broken and a large number of cigarettes strewn about in the shop and in the street. PC Skelton had had his suspicions aroused by two men loitering around shop windows. He followed them and saw them break the window of Francis' shop and take cigarettes from the window.He chased them and caught them. Other constables arrived and they were taken into custody. They admitted the theft, with cigarettes being found in their possession. They had stolen 4 shillings worth of cigarettes, and done 25 shillings worth of damage to the plate glass window. The prisoners were Charles Melville, 23 and Joseph Dawson 21, both privates in the 1st Bn Scots Guards. An officer from their battalion swore to their bad characters. They had broken out of barracks that night and Melville was under military punishment. They were both sentenced to three months hard labour.
