See "THOMAS WICKS":
My sister told me something; I went outside the shop and saw one boy outside and one coming in—the prisoner is one—they spoke together and then went on—I saw a boy looking in at the window—my elder brother went with me and we found the prisoner and another boy—they ran different ways—we took the prisoner back to the shop and I fetched a policeman, and then stood outside to mind the shop, THOMAS WICKS. I went out with my brother and followed the prisoner and another boy; they looked round and ran—I followed the prisoner, and as he turned a corner he threw something which looked like coins or bits of tin into a pond—I caught hold of him—he said "I have not been doing anything; you have got hold of the wrong one"—I had not then spoken to him—I took him back—he caught hold of some railings, but I got him to the shop, and a constable was sent for.
