While riding on the rear platform of a tramcar in Symonds Street during the evening his wallet was taken from an inside coat pocket. It contained a cheque book, papers and letters of thanks from prisoners, but no money. It was found in a rubbish receptacle near the top of Symonds Street. Mr Moreton was returning from shopping on behalf of the prisoners about to be released.
