FOUND ON THE HIGHWAYOn Thursday afternoon as P.S. Onan was on duty on the Wymington-road, he saw a man, apparently a tramp, lying on the side of the highway. On going to him the sergeant found him to be well-nigh insensible, and in a most helpless and exhausted condition, and the only answer that could be got in reply to enquiries was "Wellingborough".
It transpired that he had been six hours coming from Wymington to the Windmill, where he was picked up. He was at once removed to the Workhouse at Wellingborough, where he was identified as Wm. Parker, 75 years of age, a native of the town. We understand he lies in a precarious condition.
