Also in the Southern Reporter, Fri 15 November 1901

…"for embezzlement, theft and forgery carried out in connection with the deposits in the Savings Bank. The defalcations amounted to £1,155.

Clatworthy was a local preacher of the Wesleyan body as well as a class leader. Mr Justice Phillimore described his proceedings as organised hypocrisy".

No mention of where he was sent.

Hi Debbie

Is this the person you are looking for? I found this in British Newspaper Archives on Genes. It was the first result that came up when I typed in his name. Do you have any credits on Genes? The full article may tell you more.
