POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
SATURDAY.
CHARLOTTE PURDON was charged with being outrageously drunk on the previous day. CHARLOTTE pleased that the event arose from her release from the Factory to a state of freedom, and on a promise that the Jubilee should not be prolonged, was discharged.
MONDAY.
Two Drunkards, and a prisoner belonging to the District Council, comprised the watch-house list. One of the bacchanals was CHARLOTTE PURDON, who on being discharged on Saturday morning, contrived to return to the watch-house on the same evening. Saturday’s plea was the joy of “getting free, and to-day’s that of not being sent to the cells on Saturday, but it was non-availing, and she was sent 24 hours to the cells.”
