Cambridge Independent Press 18 Dec 1841: Arthur Rayner guilty of poaching

Arthur Rayner was charged with poaching in Trumpington, on Col. Pemberton’s property. The defendant is a labourer in the employ of Col. Pemberton, and left his employment on Saturday last to go into the holt, with some others, in search of game. It appears that it was not the first time he has been guilty of this offence, but forgiven on a promise of not repeating it. Fined, including expenses, £2. but having no money, he was committed for six weeks.
