An apprentice employed at a Japanese tailoring shop at No. 61, Praya East was aflicted with ambitions which exceeded personal means. He had 3 great hankering for starting
his a business on count. and having not the financial means to aid him in this laudable object, he forced open the lock of his master's room and stole therefrom 255 yen. What he did with this money was to invest it on a gold ring. watch and chain. and Second-hand sewing machine. He installed the machine at his own house but-was not left long) to enjoy its possession. The Police tracked him to that place and recovered all these things. together with a proportion of the stolen money which had hat been spent.
