MALTON POLICE.

UNGRATEFUL CONDUCT OF A WORKHOUSE PAUPER. – Ann Warrener, a pauper in the workhouse of the Malton Union, belonging to Terrington, was had before the same magistrates, for her bad conduct and for abusing and ill-treating Mrs. Rutter, the worthy matron of the workhouse. She had been up before the magistrates on a former occasion for assaulting the matron, but was then forgiven on her promising amendment. Instead of this, her conduct had been very masterful and violent in the extreme, her habits for irregular, going out at nights, &c., and in fact she had been worse than ever. Under these [c]ircumstances she was brought up a second time, and the magistrates ordered her to be sent for three weeks to Northallerton House of Correction, there to learn obedience. It appears that when she came into the workhouse she was in a lost and filthy condition, that she had been well fed and clothed, and uniformly kindly treated by Mrs. Rutter, the matron, who in return had been used as above described, which makes her conduct the more base and ungrateful.
