Father* | Henry Lawton b. 1820, d. 24 Aug 1873 | |
Mother* | Elizabeth Malkin b. 1811, d. Mar 1873 |
Birth* | Mar 1849 | Burslem, Staffordshire, England, Mar Q [Wolstanton] 17 325.1 |
Note* | 18 Apr 1857 | Arthur Henry Lawton. Dr. MARK and his Little Men.—At the Liverpool Police Court, on Tuesday, William Lawton, and Arthur Henry Lawton, brothers, aged respectively six and eight years, were brought up under warrant, for having absconded themselves from their service to Dr. Mark, contrary to the terms of their indentures. Mr. Black appeared on behalf of the little fellows ; Dr. Mark conducted his own case. He explained that he had organised a system for making music popular. He took boys generally at about nine yoars of age, as apprentices for three years, undertaking to give them a musical education, and they, in return, were to perform in public. He found them with board and clothing, but instruments and books the parents were exported to furnish. The little boys in the dock had been with him 12 months. The father (Mr. Lawton) a boot and shoe dealer, and the proprietor of a temperance hotel at Burslem, Staffordshire, had agreed to give £15 for instruments. He had paid £5, and, instead of paying another £5 to him at Oldham, a fortnight ago, the mother clandestinely took the boys home with her. He was very sorry to appear in a court of justice, but his duty to the public and himself rendered it imperative.— Mr. Black : How many boys have you? Dr. Mark: thirty-five.—Are they all of the tender age of the two in the dock ? No, sir; they are the youngest.—Are they all present in court? There are about twenty - four present.—I suppose you have brought the fittest ? Not at all; I think they are all alike.—How many slept in a bed? Sometimes four, sometimes three, and sometimes five.—Did they get enough to eat ? I have always given them abundance.—Have these children ever had the itch ? No, sir; but they were six weeks at the salt-water and seabathing, and Dr. Hall, of Huddersfield, said that this, with change of air, has caused some slight cutaneous eruptions. They got a warm bath once a week, and changed linen weekly. Dr. Mark called the eldest boy, Donovan, who said they always got food sufficient. Mr. Mansfield asked if the parents had got a medical gentleman to give evidence? Mr. Black replied that they had not. Mr. Mansfield said the parents had not done right in this case; they ought to have spoken to Dr. Mark if anything was wrong, and it was most unjustifiable for them to make such calumnious and injurious statements as to their boys' condition, without medical evidence to support them. Two of the little boys who had slept with the Lawtons were called, and they said they had not had the itch. Mr. Lawton stated in what a neglected state he found his boys; they had sore feet, and shoes down at the heels. Mrs. Lawton also described the unclean state of her boys, both as regards underclothing and person. They had communicated the itch, since they came home, to all in the house. The boys who accompanied Dr. Mark seemed healthy, cheerful, and well attended to. His worship, afler a lengthy hearing, recommended Mr. Lawton and Dr. Mark to consult together, to see if they could come to some arrangement, he had no alternative but to order tho boys to be returned to Dr. Mark. After a consultation, the boys were handed over to Dr. Mark, who wanted their services as drummers.2 |
