Nineteenth-Century Weaman Street

 S. Rawlings & Son beg respectfully to inform their connections and the public that they intend removing on Monday next, 26th day of Dec., from Bull Street to more eligible and extensive premises, No. 100 Weaman Street, Birmingham, where they will always have a regular supply of raw goods and rough and dressed leather, which by making their purchases for cash, they can offer with confidence on the most advantageous terms to the trade generally.

 Thomas Dolphin and Thomas Slater were charged with an assault upon Garrington, the watchman, in the house of Mr Hall, the Cross, in Weaman Street. The prisoners are a part of a gang of ruffians who have for some time past annoyed Mr and Mrs Hall in the prosecution of their business. One of the party (it will be seen by our police report) was brought up before Mr Spooner on Monday. Mrs Hall deposed to the disorderly conduct of the prisoners, who forced themselves into the house, and were so outrageous in their conduct that she was obliged to lock herself up in the bar. Garrington, in attempting to get them out of the house, was violently assaulted by both prisoners. The Magistrates convicted them in the penalty of 10s each and costs, and in default of payment, sentenced them to imprisonment in the House of Correction for one calendar month, and hard labour.
