"The Alleged Theft by a Jeweller"<br />
"The case <strong>of</strong> George <strong>Brebner</strong> (31), working jeweller, Hutcheon Street, which was reported in our columns yesterday, came up for decision<br />
before Baillie Berry at Aberdeen Police Court to-day. It will be remembered that <strong>Brebner</strong> was accused <strong>of</strong> stealing a watch from George<br />
Munro, watchmaker, Gilcomston Steps, by asking it on approval <strong>and</strong> afterwards pawning it. Accused had maintained that he had bought<br />
the watch, not got it on approval, <strong>and</strong> intended to pay for it. Addressing accused to-day the Magistrate said he had some difficulty in<br />
deciding the case as there were two contradictory statements made by Munro <strong>and</strong> accused. The one stated that the watch was got on<br />
approval <strong>and</strong> the other that it was purchased. In the absence <strong>of</strong> any evidence corroborative <strong>of</strong> Munro's statement, the Baillie felt compelled<br />
to give accused the benefit <strong>of</strong> the doubt, <strong>and</strong> he would find the charge not proven. <strong>Brebner</strong> left the Court saying he would pay Munro for<br />
the watch "right enough."<br />
I wonder if Baillie Berry was related to George's wife Mary Ann At any rate, it doesn't appear that George learnt his lesson...<br />

"Theft From a Union Street Jeweller"<br />
"George <strong>Brebner</strong> was charged at a pleading diet <strong>of</strong> a Sheriff <strong>and</strong> Jury Court today -- before Sheriff Brown -- with having in March, from<br />
the shop 151 Union Street, occupied by William Miller, stolen a brooch, <strong>and</strong> on various occasions between 28th May <strong>and</strong> 4th July stolen a<br />
set <strong>of</strong> studs <strong>and</strong> sleeve links <strong>and</strong> four brooches. He pleaded guilty. Mr. J.T. Jeffery, solicitor, having made a statement on accused's behalf,<br />
Mr. Wilson mentioned that the value <strong>of</strong> the goods was £6. Accused had been about two years in the employment <strong>of</strong> Mr. Miller. who was<br />
removing at the time, <strong>and</strong> thus made the thefts the easier. The Sheriff remarked on the serious nature <strong>of</strong> the crime, which was aggravated<br />
by being committed on an employer. In respect that accused had not been previously convicted, the sentence would be restricted to forty<br />
days' imprisonment."<br />
