WITNEY.
PETTY SESSIONS. - October 4th.
Before James Mason and P. Southby, Esqs.
School Cases.
Alfred Pratley was summoned by the Eynsham School Board for not sending his child to school. Defendant appeared and said his child was over thirteen years of age, as she was born in April, 1870. It appears that although the bye-laws only compels parents to send their children to school until they are thirteen years of age, yet under Lord Sandon's act they cannot be employed until they are 14 years of age. The justices therefore made an order for defendant to send his child to school. |
