Peter Taylor, coppersmith, arrested for stealing from his employers

    Interesting. I knew a painter who worked for the council. His fiddle was to call at the stores depot with an empty paint tin. He'd ask the staff there if he could take a small amount of sand away in the empty tin to finish a small job at home. Sand costs very little and so they'd say yes. But - the empty paint tin would be discarded and the painter would take a full new paint tin and place a mound of sand on the tin lid and walk out. Once out, he'd dust the sand off and have a full tin of paint!

    It's staggering that not so long ago clothes were stolen in such numbers. I guess it was the only thing which traded well?

    I guess that time of year (late Feb/early March) in North Shields people would have been more than happy to pay for boots and warm winter clothes "on the cheap" ... some people couldn't even afford to buy boots at all in 1906. There was no social security then ... you lived on your wits.

    That's very true! I'd forgotten about how lucky we are now..
