Tonight researching 2 sisters age 16 & 15 in 1898 who ran away from Leeds to Halifax 3 weeks previously. They were sentenced to 1 calendar month in HMP Wakefield for stealing 2 straw hats, 3 capes & 1 necktie from the cloak room of a school in Halifax. They were 4 feet 11 & 10 inches tall. In a newspaper report their mother said they were unmanageable, whilst at home they seemed to think they could do as they please & expected others to stay up until all hours of the night until they came home
