Morning Herald, 10 April 1835. The following are the of the parties convicted William Evans, as principal, and, accessaries, James Cole, Michael Morris, Nathaniel Evans, James Neale, Charles Milsome, Samuel Monkes, Henry Gomin, George Bowyer, Thomas Palmer, Abraham Evans, Richard Bishop, James Isles, William Berry, and James Rice. They were all of them stout, active, good-looking young men; and, among the number, some were persons of respectability, particularly James Cole, who, at the time his apprehension, was in the occupation of a large farm at Little Sodburv, belonging to Sir C. B. Codrington, Bart. We sincerely trust the fate of these individuals will operate as a check and warning to all such as may be thoughtlessly j tempted to associate with that worst and most desperate of all characters, the poacher.
