Christmas Tree Raiders – On Earl Warwick’s Estate
How three Bristol men raided a Somerset plantation in search of Christmas trees was told at Temple Cloud Police Court on Tuesday when Wilfred James Street, of 46, Street, St. Paul's; Wm. James Haberfield of 33, Immerson Square, Horfield, and Alfred Wm. Harper of 18. Street. St. Paul's, were accused of stealing 47 spruce trees.
Mr. J. Guy Heal, prosecuting, said the trees were taken from a plantation Earl Warwick's estate near disused Greyfields Colliery, Clutton. The estate was timbered 15 years ago with larch and spruce, so that the plantation could by no means be regarded as waste land.
Ten days before Harper and Haberfield approached a tenant farmer who was hedging near the plantation, and asked him if there were any Christmas about. He said " No," but soon afterwards Farnham Bailey, an employee on the estate noticed a stationary van in the road on the estate and communicated with the police. He kept watch and 20 minutes later saw two men come out and look round.
P.C. Barratt had also started to watch, and at a quarter to two noticed the men come out. Street remaining with the van which was taken towards the bridge and then turned face Clutton. He saw them put three bundles of spruce trees into the van. and then went up and stopped men. In the van he found 37 trees, and afterwards found another ten in the plantation.
Mr. Heal said the estate office had received a letter. dated Dec. 15th and signed by the three men. apologising for taking the trees, and saying they were under the impression that no one lived on the ground and that it did not belong to anyone, so that they thought they were at to take the trees.
Wilfred Sherborne, of Greyfields, Clutton, said that the men asked him if were any Christmas trees
about. he answered. " God love thee. no. There ain't no Christmas trees here. Here's nobody lives here, let alone Christmas trees."
Farnham Thomas Bailey, Maynard Terrace, Clutton. Samuel Cook, Clutton. and P.C. Barratt also gave evidence supporting Mr. Heal's opening statement.
Harper and Haberfield gave evidence that Sherborne told them the land belonged to no one, and that they were under the impression it would be quite all right to take trees. They had no intention of stealing.
Street said that. because of what the others told him, he thought it was all right.
Mr. F. C. Counsell, defending, submitted that there was no felonious intent. as the men thought the land was derelict.
Harper, who bad a long list of convictions, was sentenced to six hard labour, and Haberfield to one
month. Street was fined £2 .
