False Pretenses at Fremantle Police Court
Geo. Andre, a heavily built man, faced Fremantle Police Court on Wednesday before H. H. Parker and Capt. Biddle J. He was charged with falsely claiming £30 in wages owed to Leonard A. Wicks and obtaining £2 6s from him on November 19. A guilty plea to borrowing was entered but he maintained it. Wicks, owner of the Burlington Case, testified Andre was introduced as a Largs Bay crewman needing a loan to be paid off from the ship. He repaid £2 later that day and claimed more owed, while witnesses described his employment and discharge. The bench remanded him for 4½ years for further inquiries into his stated Melbourne pension.
