Tables I, II, and III. (f) Columns 2, 3, and 4, Numbers for Trial," include only such cases as actually come before the Assizes or Quarter Sessions. Persons who die, escape from prison, abscond while on bail, or are removed to an asylum before trial are not included. " (g) Column 13, Imprisonment," does not include the sentences of imprisonment which sometimes precede sentences of detention in an Inebriate Reformatory, nor does it include sentences of imprisonment in default of payment of fine or in default of finding sureties. (h) Columns 15 and 16, "Recognizances," include cases where recognizances are required whether with or without sureties, and, if sureties are required, whether they are found or not. (i) The cases of "Fine" in Column 17 include cases where payment of a fine is imposed as the sentence or part of the sentence whether the fine is actually paid or not. (j) Columns 18 to 20 are for those cases where more than one punishment is imposed for the same offence. Thus, if a young person convicted of larceny is sentenced to be imprisoned and whipped, the imprisonment appears in Column 13, the whipping in Column 20. (k) Columns 21 to 23. See note (c) above. Table VI. (1) Where several persons are charged with the same offence, this is entered as one case in Column 2, but as several persons in Column 3. (m) Where there are several charges against the same person, this is entered as one case in Column 2. In selecting the offences for tabulation and giving the results of proceedings, the same rules are followed as in Tables I, II, and III. (1) TABLE I. ASSIZES.
