As London grew, crime flourished here, many poor people lived by stealing lead from roofs, food from shops, lumps of coal, and clothes drying on hedges.
There were also cheats and tricksters, pickpockets and petty thieves in London. Crime became an object of British society. Poverty was the root cause of this problem. Police, philanthropists and government, everybody was worried about the’ law and order situation in London due to the widespread crime.

(i) The police were worried about the law and order and industrialists wanted an orderly work force. There were professional criminals like cheats, tricksters, pick pockets and petty thieves too in the marginal groups.

(ii) Most of the people in the marginal groups were very poor, who lived by selling lead stolen from roofs, food from shops, lumps of coal and cloth drying from hedges.

(iii) In order to discipline them the authorities counted the number of criminals, watched their activities and investigated their lives. High penalties were imposed and deserving poor people were offered work.
