Devon Licences County Committee Meet at the Castle of Exeter: The principal meeting of the Devon Licensing Committee was held at the Castle of Exeter on Monday, Lord Clifford presiding … … King’s Arms, Chagford: In the case of the King’s Arms, Chagford, the tenant was Mr. James John Crook; registered owners, Mrs. H. G. Collins, Chester, and Mr. E. Hooper, Tiverton-road, Exeter. Mr. Lawrance, who appeared for the justices, said this was a curious case. Mr. Crook was in the employ of Messrs. Pinsent, brewers of Newton Abbot, and did not live the premises. He came to the house sometimes at weekends, and he had a tenant named Frank George Rose. No explanation was given before the magistrates why this licensee did not live on the premises. It was a tied house, and the business was stated by Mr. Crook to be £20 a month gross. But the justices had reason to believe that was not more than £6 a month. No objection was offered to Mr. Tarbet, and the license was not renewed.

Leicester Lover Kills Himself After Attempting Murder: A painful tragedy occurred in Leicester on Wednesday night, resulting in the death of one man named Horace Pinsent, aged 19, was walking along the London Road accompanied by a girl of about his own age, when they quarreled over something; the girl intimating that she would no longer walk out him. Without the slightest warning the youth drew a revolver and fired point blank at girl. She had, however a miraculous escape, for although she was only a yard away from Pinsent when the weapon went off, the bullet only grazed her cheek and went through her hat. Her screams, together with the report of revolver, attracted the attention of passers-by, and Mr. Herbert Hytch who was amongst crowd, made for Pinsent. Before reached him, however, he was hit by a bullet in the neck. After firing two more shots Pinsent made for the town. The crowd pursued him and on nearing Toller Road he turned the weapon on himself and with the last cartridge shot himself through the head, death resulting instantaneously. Mr. Hytch was taken to the Leicester Royal Infirmary in a car and the body of Pinsent was removed on the fire brigade ambulance to the mortuary. The girl, who was greatly distressed, was taken into a house nearby, but after a time she was able to journey to the Central Police Station to give her information to the police.
