Conisborough Poaching Fine
When William Hands, miner, Conisborough, was summoned at Doncaster yesterday, for a breach of the Poaching Prevention Act, he was said to be leading his nephew, Herbert Poole, a pony driver, into bad ways.
They were both summoned for having ferrets and poaching implements in their possession at Sprotborough.
Hands, who had been previously convicted, was fined £5.
The case against Poole was adjourned for his appearance.
