It appeared that accused, who had been previously convicted, was born of German parents who died when he was five years old. He was left in charge of Chinese and could only speak Chinese. At 4 o'clock on Sunday morning he broke into No. 8 Carter Road, climbed the verandah and entered a bathroom through зв open window.

Seeing that the number was that of the empty room he quietly went upstairs and saw the accused who hurriedly climbed down the verandah. The house boy shouted to a coolic downstairs and together they chased him for about half a mile, when finally accused was ar rosted.

Calman admitted the charge and was sentenced to a year and two months' imprisonment:
