PATRICK MARTIN, alias REED, alias COLLINGS, not arrested; Hue- and- Cry, 6th January, 1888, ( 123 H. C.) SCOTCH POLICE. Northampton. Wanted in this borough, on Warrant, charged with fiaudulent bankruptcy, two men, whose descriptions are as follows :— 1 R. PIERCE, about 33 years ot age, 5 feet 5 or 6 inches high, stout build, fresh complexion, no whiskers, slight dark moustache, clean smart appearance. 2.— BRICE, about 28 or 30 years of age, 5 feet 2 or 3 inches high, proportionate build, round face, sallow complexion, brown whiskers round face, but may be clean shaved; dresses respectably. The first man, Pierce, was living in St. Gilee'- street, in this town, with his wife, a tall, good- looking woman, fresh complexion, and brown hair cut short, and a little boy about 4 years of age. Another man, said to be his brother, James Pierce, was living with him, and assisting in the business, which was styled " The Bon Marche ;" the latter is about 24 years of age, 5 feet 3 or 4 inches high, clear dark complexion. The second man, Brice, was living with his wife at 61, Sheep- street, in this town; Mrs. Brice is a stout woman, and taller than her husband. An old man and woman ( supposed parents of " Pierce.*) lived in the Horsemarket in this town, and assisted in carrying on the business of both firms, such as making or repairing cheap furniture, & c., making up, & c.; the old man was 60 years of age, very short, with gray hair, and generally wore a high hat, and carried a stick. It is supposed that the whole of the above- described will be found trading together in other names. Their modus operandi is to open shops in names only slightly differing from some well- known firm in the town : for instance, Brice ( above- described) opened a shop in Sheep- street, in this town, as " Brice & Co.," whereas, in a piincipal thoroughfare, a large firm exists " Brice & Sons;" it is thus easy to obtain a quantity of goods without enquiries, which those people have been doing, and then sending the same to Auction Sales in the town, and after thus disposing of a considerable quantity they leave without notice, and are not heard of again. Letters of enquiry have been received from all parts where these pwple have Glasgow. EMBEZZLEMENT OF £ 109 3s. 3d.
