Notes

(4.) In those years the Charges Abandoned and Postponed are not included in the Grand Total in the published Returns; but they are added here, to make the figures tally.

(3.)

  1. Under Offence of Breaking into a Dwelling House, out of 9 prisoners, 6 only are accounted for, the remaining 3 must have been acquitted, and have been reported accordingly.
  2. Under Murder, out of 8 prisoners, 2 only have been accounted for, the 3rd was probably acquitted.
  3. Under Unlawfully giving False Statement to Registrar General, the prisoner although convicted does not appear under that heading, but the fact appears in a footnote on the Return.

(2.) One case treated, and one prior conviction.

(5.) In one case the recognisance was estreated; this case is included in the total, but not in any other of the above headings.
