On Tuesday 21st March 1854, it was said that Henry Stangroom (19) and
Thomas Bacon (17) were seen to enter the White Hart
having sold a clock for 10s 6d. The clock had been stolen the previous
day from a Mr. W. Havers of St. Miles, along with two shawls, one cap
and four brushes. The White Hart was described as a place of very bad
repute.
Bacon was sentenced to four years penal servitude and Stangroom to nine
months.
Unfortunately the report did not identify which White Hart, most likely
it was the Coslany Street house. |
