Robbery at Chelmsford Post Office Uncovered by Youth
A string of post office robberies in Chelmsford were traced to a clever ten year old, Hunsdon, nephew of the postmistress. The boy stole banknotes from letters by exploiting stamps and rings, hid notes in the garden, and even opened a physician’s parcel. After confessing under threat of hanging, he was sent to Chelmsford Gaol for trial, ending suspicions about local families.
