THEFT AND RESET
At Ardrossan Burgh Court yesterday morning, FRANCIS WELSH and JOHN MAUDLEY, vagrants, and JOHN MURPHY, seaman, were charged with finding a Highland cloak on the South Beach, between Thursday and Saturday, and appropriating it to their own use.
The vagrants pleaded guilty and Murphy not guilty.
From evidence it appeared that the three men lodged together in Saltcoats, that the cloak was found by the two vagrants, and that Murphy pawned it in Stevenston, getting two shillings on it.
The Fiscal asked the Court to convict Murphy of reset. Conviction was found accordingly, and each of the men were sentenced to 10 days’ imprisonment.

COLLISION NEAR THE CUMBRAES
The schooner EMMELINE JENKINS was towed into Ardrossan Harbour on Wednesday evening in a disabled condition, as the result of a collision with the Anchor liner FURNESSIA.
The EMMELINE JENKINS is a vessel of 110 tons. She left Gourock Bay on Tuesday afternoon.
The collision occurred a few miles outside the Cumbraes. The schooner lost her bowsprit, headgear, and windlass, and sustained other damage. The forecastle, which was fortunately empty at the time, was thrown out on the deck. Her hull appears to have been untouched, as she is making no water.
About two miles off Brodick on Wednesday afternoon word was despatched by an Arran fisherman to have an Ardrossan tug sent to her assistance, and this was done.
