Obituary
Many will learn with regret that Mr. George
Summerfield, of Canterbury Road, passed away on Sunday after a somewhat
prolonged illness. Deceased was well-known as a licensed victualler. He aws for
many years landlord of the Royal Standard, Canterbury Road, and latterly had
carried on business at the Red Cow Inn, Foord Road. To meet his wish, his
family had him removed to his old house (his son being licensee there now),
where he died. The late Mr. Summerfield enjoyed the sincere esteem of a large
circle. There was no keener supporter of football in Folkestone and he was an
active member of the Radnor Park Bowls Club. In truth can it be said of him,
whether in pastimes or other dealings with his fellows, he played a straight
game. The Standard Sick and Dividend Club was his special pride, and his care
for the Royal Victoria Hospital was well manifested in the many handsome
collections which have been credited to the Royal Standard from time to time.
To his widow and family there goes out a genuine sympathy. The funeral took
place from the Royal Standard on Thursday.

Express 12-7-1919
Tuesday, July 8th: Before Messrs. G. Boyd,
E.T. Morrison, C.E. Mumford and W. Hollands, and Dr. Nuttall.
Emily Berry and Cecilia Ewens, both of Bridge Street,
were summoned by Florence Edith Stanley for assault. Ewens pleaded Guilty, but
Berry denied the offence.
Mrs. Berry said she only parted the other two women.
The Bench dismissed both cases, Mrs. Ewens being told
that she had received provocation.
Mrs. Berry was then summoned for assaulting Violet
Platt on July 3rd. She admitted the offence.
Complainant said when leaving the Standard public
house, Bridge Street, defendant slapped her face and struck her five times, so
complainant struck back. The trouble was all over defendant saying she (Mrs.
Platt) screwed her nose up. She could not say she was quite sober at the time,
for she had had a brother come home from India.
Fined 10s.
