On Tuesday night, as Benjamin Pinder was returning from Halifax to Brighouse, a young man fell in company with him on Southowram Bank Top, with whom he walked to Brookfoot, when the companion stopped upon some pretext, and Mr Pinder walked on. He was, however, soon overtaken by three men, who seized him and threw him on his back, and with other acts of violence tore away his pockets. Mr Pinder struggled hard though his hands were held, and was quite sure of having marked one or more of his assailants.

This, and other circumstances, led to the apprehension of a man named Mellor, living in Halifax, who on Monday was examined before Christopher Rawson, and fully committed to Wakefield House of Correction.
