Petty Sessions; Before R. Hart Esq., Mayor, S. Mackie, W. Bateman, W. Major, T. Golder and J. Bateman Esqs.
There were six publicans charged by the police with serving beer, &c., contrary to the law. Mr. R.T. Brockman appeared for the Watch Committee; Mr. Delasaux (Canterbury) for several of the defendants.
James Hall, Old Marquis of Granby, was charged on the information of police constable Collins with serving beer before the hour of half past twelve o`clock p.m., on Sunday, the 2nd instant. Police constable Collins having proved the case, the Mayor addressed the defendant, telling him that the only object of the magistrates was to keep the town in an orderly and proper manner. The magistrates or the police were not actuated by any ill-feeling towards him or anyone else in his business, but they felt that the law had been disregarded, and that it was necessary now for all parties that the public houses should not now do as they had done; the Bench taking all circumstances into consideration, would mitigate the penalty to 1s. and costs.
Note: The name “Old” Marquis of Granby suggests that this was the house in the High Street. However, at the time of the 1851 Census, he was in Radnor Street at what was the Ship, the name of which was crossed out and Marquis of Granby overwritten. Also, the Post Office Directory for 1851, information for which would most likely have been compiled in 1850, has him at the Marquis of Granby in Radnor Street. I feel, therefore, that this report refers to the Marquis of Granby, Radnor Street.
John Welch, Bricklayers Arms, for a similar offence, was fined 1s. and costs.
Margaret Harrison, Lord Nelson, was similarly fined.
The case against William Burvill, Carrier`s Arms beer shop, was dismissed, for want of sufficient evidence.
William Vigor, Rose Inn, for a similar offence, was fined 1s. and costs.

Petty Sessions, Wednesday; Before R. Hart Esq., Mayor, D. Major, S. Mackie, and W. Major Esqs.
William Burvill, landlord of the Carrier`s Arms beer shop, appeared to answer the complaint of Inspector Steer, for keeping open his house after the hour of eleven o`clock. From the evidence of the inspector it appeared that on the 26th April he visited the defendant`s house, and found twelve men and women sitting there, with jugs and glasses on the table.
The defendant admitted they were there, and that he could not get them out; he told them the consequences, but they said “We won`t go, let the police turn us out”.
The magistrates tol the defendant he was bound to keep his house clear, and they would fine him 20s. and costs, and if he was summoned there again, the full penalty of £5 would be inflicted.
