1. The appellant was convicted before the learned magistrate of four charges of robbery with aggravation. He appears to have gone round with several other men and robbed victims of property such as wrist watches. He is a first offender in the sense that he was a first offender when he committed the first of these robberies and it is apparently not disputed that he was co-operative once he had been arrested. He is 21 years of age and has a wife and a child.
