“CHAMPION MEAN MAN”
ROBBED HIS BENEFACTOR (Special to THE SUIT 7 CHRISTCHURCH, Tuesday. “A champion mean man,” was how Chief Detective Carroll described Andrew Deer, aged 29, who was sentenced to one year’s imprisonment by Mr. H. A. Young, S.M., this morning, for the theft of a bicycle. The chief detective said that Deer had been befriended by a man who had given him a bed, meals and work. The latter also gave him recommendations for work to two men, and lent him a bicycle on which to go to one of the jobs. Accused was found by a constable trying to sell the bicycle. “He has a long list,” added the detective. “Besides being a thief he is a champion mean man.”
