Fynmore, Alderman Jenner, J.J. Giles Esq., and Col. Owen.
William Henry Carter, a boatman, was charged with being
drunk and disorderly in Beach Street the previous evening. He pleaded Guilty.
P.S. Prebble said at 8 p.m. He was in Beach Street,
when he was called to the public bar of the South Foreland. There he saw the
prisoner having an altercation with another boatman. Carter had his coat off,
and the landlady was requesting him to leave. He would not do so. He (witness)
ejected the prisoner from the house, and Carter became very violent and
absolutely refused to go home.
Prisoner said he supposed he was drunk, as he knew he
had had a drop of drink. He was very sorry he was there.
The Chief Constable said Carter, who was a very
respectable man, had not been before the Magistrates previously, and he hoped
he would not come again.
Prisoner: I will watch that.
The Chairman said the Magistrates had never had the
pleasure of the prisoner`s presence there before, so they decided to let him
off. He was therefore discharged.
