Convict Notes
Extensive Burglary.—During the night of Saturday the 9th inst., Broughton Rectory, the residence of the Hon. and Rev. James Douglas, near Kettering, was entered by cutting the kitchen shutters away. The fellows ransacked almost every place in the house, and carried off property of various descriptions, to the amount of several hundred pounds. Sunday, three men were apprehended, named John Anstice, William Jones, and Benjamin Gore, while sleeping under a hayrick, at Pytchley. Anstice was formerly a footman in Mr. Douglas's family. The soil near the hayrick appearing to have been recently removed, a spade procured, and at only a few inches from the surface, the whole of the plate, watches, gold seals, See. were discovered, tied up in a large table cloth. The notes were also found concealed in the hay rick. All the prisoners have been committed for trial.
