Convict Notes
JOHN OGDEN, aged 16, and DAVID FRUDD, aged 15, charged with burglariously breaking into the house of John Naylor, Barnsley, flaxspinner, and stealing therefrom two silver spoons and several other articles. During the night of the 17th January last, the house of prosecutor was broken into and several articles stolen thereout. The town of Barnsley much infested with a set of lads, who commit similar depredations. The constable went to Frudd’s house, the night after the robbery, and charged him with it, when he first denied having any knowledge of it, but afterwards said that Ogden and him had committed the robbery, and if he (the constable) would go with him, he would show him where the property was— took him to a barn, where the spoons, etc. were secreted, and gave them to the constable. He (the constable) then went and took Ogden into custody, who o confessed his guilt ; and, being ignorant of what Frudd had done, took the constable to the aforesaid barn, in order to get the property. The prisoners made no defence, and the jury found them both GUILTY. Yorkshire Gazette, 24 March 1821. and Sheffield Independent 24 March 1821.
