The charge against the late secretary of the Water Company.
On Saturday last, before Sir Leopold Heath and E. Kerrich, Esq., Edward Gumbrill, the late secretary of the Water Company, was brought up on remand from the previous Tuesday, charged with embezzling the sum of £275, moneys received by him on account of the said company, and not accounted for by him - Mr Hubert Wood, of Reigate and London prosecuted.
The evidence taken at the previous hearing having been read over and confirmed, Mr Wood addressed their Worships. He remarked that, appearing as he did no behalf of the company, he threw out a suggestion last Tuesday that, as this was the first offence against the prisoner, who was over 60 years of age, had hitherto borne a good character, and who was formerly a tradesman in the town, he threw out a suggestion that the case was one which might be dealt with under the Criminal Justices' Act. Of course, this was entirely in the discretion of the Bench, and if the prisoner felt that he had no answer to the charge he would of course, plead guilty, or perhaps the majestrates would deem it too serious a matter to deal with summarily. The company did not wish to press the case harshly, and would themselves prefer that it should be disposed of at once, that the prisioner should be dealt with as leniently as the Bench thought fit in the interests of justice. - -- continues - - -
The Bench ordered the charge to be read over to the prisoner, the usual caution was administered to him, and he then pleaded guilty, throwing himself on the mercy of the Court.
Sir Leopold Heath said that, under the circumstances mentioned by Mr Wood, the magistrates thought the justice of the case would be answered by their dealing with the charge in the more lenient way allowed by the Criminal Justices' Act, instead of sending it for trial at the sessions.
The offence of which the prisoner was guilty was of a very serious character, but they felt that they would be doing their duty if they did not impose upon him the full penalty. The sentence of the Court, therefore, was that he be imprisoned for six months. Prisoner, who seemed to feel his position acutely, was then removed.
