Go it boots.
--
Jerry Sullivan, a regular bruiser in appearance, and a man to whom bad whiskey was not at all distasteful, was before the
Mayor yesterday, charged with stealing a pair of boots, a coat, and a pair of pants, from
Isaac Jacobs, and with assaulting
Mrs. Jacobs.
Jerry, it appears, was on a bender.
Having exhausted his last Confed., and becoming exceedingly thirsty, he fastened upon
Jacobs for a treat, and, not getting if, seized the goods and concealed a portion of them in his bosom.
On being deprived of his levy he made fight, and gave
Mrs. Jacobs a blow, for which he was pretty roughly handled, and then turned over to the police.
The
Mayor remanded him for a hearing before the Hustings Court.
