Note on Husband: Oliver GUTTERIDGE

Oliver Gutteridge lost his temper with fellow farm worker Joseph Shaw, after Shaw had criticised his work. Gutteridge knocked him down and assaulted him, causing Shaw to miss work and several days' pay. Gutteridge was fined £1 with £1 costs on 14 January 1933.

 

Gutteridge led a far from innocent life. But in 1917 , when he was a 14 year old pit boy, and he was fined 2s 6d by Atherstone Magistrates for wasting bread, by feeding it to his rabbits to fatten them for Christmas, his own bread from his lunch box, what did he think when he was told that bread was for humans and must not be wasted in that way? The profound stupidity of the Bench, in words and actions, with no awareness of the irony of their punishment, may well have had some impact on Gutteridge's opinion of Law and Order.
