As he wnlked into the court room today
a child in the rear cried out, "There's

companied Clegg said that he had cried
like a child during the trip.
Last week a club in Kensington held
a benefit te raise funds with which te
fight for a new trial for the youths.
When ebnvkted they had produced a
lance number of witnesses, who de
clared that they were several miles
