At the Guildhall, Folkestone, last week, Thomas Dunn, beer-shop keeper, was charged by Ballard, an excise officer of Hythe, with selling spirituous liquors. From the evidence it appeared that Ballard went to the defendant`s house, dressed in the garb of a butcher from Ash, in company with Mrs. Kiel, a chimney sweeper`s wife, and asked for something to drink. He said he had attended the Dover market, but as trade was so very dull, he had been obliged to sell his meat at £3 less than prime cost. In the course of the evening Mrs. Kiel feigned very ill, and her companion wished to know if there was any gin or brandy in the house. Being informed by the landlady that they had nothing but a little rum, which they had purchased for private use, he requested a glass of that, which the landlady gave them. The exciseman stated that he had purchased six glasses of brandy of the defendant, for which he paid 3d. per glass, and appealed to his beloved Phillis for corroboration, who stated that he was drunk when he entered the house and scarcely knew what he was doing. As the defendant, however, had kept his house open till a late hour, the magistrates fined him in the mitigated penalty of £12 10s.
