Alice Sandford, criminal record number 661LB, 7 August 1925. State Reformatory for Women, Long Bay.
Many women, like Alice Sandford, capitalised on laws restricting the sale of alcohol after 6pm by setting up ‘sly-grog shops’: premises in which alcohol was sold illegally at exorbitant prices. The details of Sandford`s conviction have been lost. DOB: 1889.
