Two sixteen-year-old boys were summoned at the
Folkestone Juvenile Court on Friday morning for consuming intoxicating liquor
when under the age of 18. Both defendants pleaded guilty.
P.C. Crane said at 12.45 p.m. on Sunday he was on
duty in Harvey Street, walking towards Dover Road. When about 100 yards away
from the Harvey Hotel he saw two youths go into the hotel. He drew level with
the hotel and saw one of the boys peering through the window of the bottle and jug department. A few minutes later he
opened the door and saw the two defendants inside. One boy was sitting on his
left against the counter and next to him was an empty glass. The other boy was
holding a half pint glass containing about an inch and a half of beer. He
(witness) said to him “Is that beer?” and the boy said “Yes”. He examined the
empty glass and found that that also had contained beer. He asked the boy with
the empty glass how old he was. He said he was 18 years of age. The other boy
said he also was 18. He told the boys he did not believe them and he would find out. The first
boy then said “No, I am 16”, and the other defendant admitted he was only 16.
He told them they had committed an offence by entering licensed premises,
ordering beer and drinking it. He told them they would be summoned. He spoke to
the licensee and he made a statement as follows: “At about 12.45 p.m. today two
youths entered the jug and bottle department of my premises. I asked them their
age and they replied they were over 18 and on that understanding
I served them with two half pints of beer and charged them 2½d. each. I do not
wish to break the law, but thought they spoke the truth”.
The Chairman (Alderman Mrs. E. Gore) to the
defendants: You knew you had no business there?
One of the defendants: We knew that if we went
into the public bar we would not get served, but would in the bottle and jug.
The mother of one defendant said the hoys were
not in the habit of doing it. She understood they had been in the hotel once
before and the landlord asked them their age, but he did not do so on the
occasion in question. She had spoken to the licensee and he said the boys
looked 18, but they did not.
The Chairman: Of course, they don’t.
The father of the other boy said he did not
know his son frequented the place until the constable brought him borne.
The Chairman said “You are here for a very serious
offence, you both knew you were doing wrong. We are going to dismiss the case with
a caution, if you give your assurance that you will not do this again. You
promise that?
The boys: Yes.
The Chairman: If you do there will be very serious
trouble.
The Magistrates’ Clerk (Mr. C. Rootes): This
finishes it for the two boys, but one thing, the licensee is liable to get into
very serious trouble.
