Edward Mote pleaded guilty to an indictment charging him with embezzling seventeen pounds six shillings and eightpence and six pounds five shillings and monies of Alfred Charles Tatlan and others, his master. Mr Bodkin appeared for the prosecution. The prosecutors are Solicitors, and the prisoner had been in their employment for about 20 years. Up to recently he had borne a very good character. The prosecutors were acting trustees of an estate under the will of a gentleman, and the management of this property had been placed in the hands of the prisoner whose duty it was to collect the rents, etc. On September 2nd, 1887, he entered the office of his employers at an early hour, and after a few minutes left, requesting another clerk not to mention that he had been there. He was not heard of again until Feb. 2nd, when he wrote to the firm announcing his intentions of giving himself up. The total amount of the prisoner's defalcations were found on the enquiry which resulted from his absconding, to amount to about six hundred and fifty pounds. Mr. Bassett Hopkins appeared for the prisoner and pleaded in mitigation of sentence that he had a wife and six children dependent on him. Mr. Commissioner Kerr sentenced the prisoner to eighteen months in prison with hard labour on 2 September 1887. |
