Tuesday, September 24th: Before W. Wightwick,
W.G. Herbert, and G.I Swoffer Esqs.
John Henry Barton and Rhoda Herring were placed in the dock,
the former on a charge of being drunk and disorderly, and the other with
assaulting the police.
P.C. Thomas Allen said about 8.05 p.m. on Monday evening he
was in Dover Street, where he saw Barton, with several others, drunk and in a
fighting attitude. He requested him to go away, and the prisoner pulled his
jacket off and threatened to fight witness. P.C. Bourne came along, and the two
prisoners left and went towards Canterbury Road. Witness followed, and the
prisoners went into a fried fish shop. P.C. Smith went into the shop and asked
Barton for his name and address as the prisoner had assaulted the landlord of
the Railway Bell. The prisoner left the shop and offered to fight witness and
three other constables. Witness took him into custody, when prisoner became
violent, and witness required the assistance of P.C. Bourne, P.C. Smith, and
P.C. Johnson. The latter attempted to handcuff the male prisoner, when the
prisoner Herring, who had been very disorderly, snatched them from him and
struck him in the mouth.
P.C. Leonard Johnson said at the time in question he was in
Canterbury Road in plain clothes. The prisoner Barton was in custody, but as he
became violent witness went to the constables` assistance. As he was attempting
to put the handcuffs on his hands the female prisoner snatched them and struck
him in the mouth with her right fist. He told he he was a police constable, and
she struck him two more blows and said “Are you another Burniston?”
P.C. Smith corroborated, and added the female prisoner
behaved like a mad woman.
The Chief Constable said the prisoners had just returned
from hop picking.
The Bench fined Barton 10s. and 5s. 6d. cots, or 14 days`,
and Herring was fined £1 and 5s. 6d. costs, or 14 days` for the assault. They
told the latter she should think herself lucky, as they had the power to send
her to prison without the option of a fine. The money was paid.

John William Minter, of Invicta Road, was charged with being
drunk and disorderly the previous night in Dover Road.
Prisoner, when asked to plead, said he had only spent 4s.,
so he did not believe he was drunk.
P.C. Bourne said about nine o`clock the previous night he
was called to the Railway Bell Hotel to eject the prisoner from the bar. He had
gone into the house intoxicated, but refused to go out when requested. When
witness got him outside, he refused to go away and commenced to shout and use
most filthy language. Witness therefore took him into custody, when he became
very violent, and he had to obtain the assistance of P.C.s Prebble, Ashby, and
Smith to get him to the police station. Minter continued to struggle and kicked
all the way there, notwithstanding that he was handcuffed and had his legs tied
together.
Minter, who had nothing to say, had six convictions against
him, the last being twelve months ago. He was fined 5s. and 4s. 6d. costs, but
in default of payment he was sent to prison for seven days with hard labour.
