Dover Police, Monday: Before R. Sibbitt & C.B. Wilkins Esqs.
Francis
Wm. Fame, a young man belonging to the Royal Artillery, Dover, was charged with
stealing a watch. Prisoner had delivered himself up, and confessed the offence
to Mr. Superintendent Coram. It appeared that on the night of the Thursday
previous, Fame had slept at the Princess Royal, a public house and eating
house, in the Market Place, kept by the prosecutor, Jabez Vinall, and that the
watch was in a stand in his bedroom. After having stolen it, the prisoner took
it to Folkestone, where he pawned it. It was subsequently taken out of pawn by
a fisherman named Richard Abbott, at the request of the prisoner, the money
required for the redemption (4s. 1d.) being advanced by the proprietor of the
Mariners Home (Thomas Hall), where the prisoner was staying. Hall afterwards
advanced to the prisoner 5s. more, the watch being left in his possession with
a view to its being sold. On the information of the prisoner Superintendent
Coram proceeded to Folkestone, where he found the watch in the possession of
Hall, as above described. Committed for trial at the Quarter Sessions.

Dover Petty Sessions, Monday: Before E. Sibbitt and C.B. Wilkins Esqs.
Francis William Fone, a gunner in the Royal Artillery, was charged with stealing a watch, value 5s.
Jabez Vinall, eating house keeper, Market Place:- The prisoner slept at my house on Thursday night, and left about ten minutes after six on Friday morning, after having a cup of coffee. The watch produced was in a stand on drawers in the bedroom. Prisoner slept alone, and no-one but myself entered the room while he was there. I missed the watch about two hours after he went away; it is a silver one, and I bought it with another of a Jew at Hartlepool.
Superintendent Coram:- Yesterday the prisoner came to the station house, and confessed that he had stolen a watch from the house of the last witness on Friday morning. I took the charge and detained the prisoner, who also told me that he had sold the watch at Folkestone, to a fisherman, whose name he thought was Tom. I went to Folkestone, and found the watch now produced in the possession of the landlord of the Mariners Home, who stated that he obtained it of an artilleryman, and advanced money and refreshments to the amount of 9s.
Thomas Hall, fisherman and landlord of the Mariners Home, Radnor Street:- The prisoner came to my house on Friday, and offered the duplicate of a watch for sale. The watch was pledged for 4s., and he wanted 6s. for the ticket. I advanced 4s. 1d. to take the watch out of pledge, and prisoner had refreshments to the amount of 5s. He wanted another shilling. He left the watch with me before he went away.
Richard Abbott, fisherman, deposed to receiving 4s. 1d. from the witness Hall, and the duplicate of a watch from the prisoner, and redeemed therewith the watch now produced.
The prisoner made no defence, and was committed for trial.

Note: The only other Taylor who was a publican at that time was John Taylor, who was at the Mariners Home.

Southeastern Gazette 17-4-1855
County Court; before C. Harwood Esq.
In the matter of Thomas Hall, bankrupt: The insolvent was opposed by Messrs. Baldwin, Godden, and Holmes, brewers, Maidstone, through Mr. Hart. Mr. Minter supported the insolvent.
From the examination it appeared that the insolvent had borrowed money of the brewers to purchase boats, which he had since sold; he had an interest in a Russian prize, which he had assigned to a Mr. Davis, a Jew, for £32. Upon the brewers pressing the insolvent for money, he assigned to them his interest in the prize, and did not mention that he had previously done so to Mr. Davis. The insolvent underwent a long examination as to the sale of the boats, which he said he had sold to Thomas Warman, but Mr. Hart said he believed that if His Honour dismissed the petition the money would be forthcoming.
His Honour said that the insolvent had been guilty of fraud in selling the boats, which were not his own; he would not name a day for the final order. He appointed Mr. Holmes, one of the Medway brewery firm, assignee, and directed notice of such appointment to be given to Mr. Davis, who had bought the interest of the insolvent in the prize.
Mr. Epps said he believed there was nothing to come for the prize, although the insolvent had represented that a large sum was still expected.
Mr. Minter said he believed there would be sufficient to pay all the debts.
Mr. Epps said that on behalf of the brewers (Messrs. Baldwin and Co.) he wished to say that they had shown the insolvent every possible lenity, and would have further assisted him had he been honest in his dealings; they had advanced £42 to him to purchase boats, which he said would enable him to earn money, and he had sold them, or pretended that he had. The matter then dropped.
