Piper's Soup Kitchen, Whitehaven
Piper's Soup Kitchen, Whitehaven. The Ladies' Committee of Piper's Soup Kitchen have little new to offer in the report of last season's receipts and expenditure. Working men were badly off at the beginning and throughout the last winter; and now trade seems more depressed than ever. The generous contributions sent in (for which the Committee return sincere thanks) enable them to dispense every Wednesday and every Saturday, 396 quarts of soup, for 23 weeks. In addition to money, they feel much obliged to A B STEWARD, Esq., of Newton Manor, for 10 hares. The Trustees also would express their gratitude for a legacy of £50 (less duty, £5 - name withheld.) In consequence of this kind boon, they have made alterations in the Soup House in Mill-street, which were essentially necessary, and much required. The present season commences on November 5th.

    A Hard Case

 

William LIVINGSTONE 32, labourer, Oakbank Cottage, was charged with using snares for the purpose of taking and killing game on October 30th.  William BELL, a game watcher, found a number of snares on Oakbank Farm, and from a place of concealment saw them visited by the defendant.  One of the snares contained a rabbit.  The defendant pleaded guilty and said he was hard up.  His wife for some time had been so ill that she required constant attention.  He was unable to get a woman to wait on her and had to remain at home himself.  He had work to go to if he only had a chance.  A fine of 10s. and costs was ordered to be paid (£1 2s 6d).  Defendant said he had no money, and if he was at work would make only 3s a day.  The magistrates allowed a month for the payment of the fine.
