Refusing to Quit: George Burley, shoe hand was summoned for being drunk and disorderly and refusing to quit the licensed premises of John Pinsent, Bedford Street, on the 7th inst. Prosecutor said that he saw the defendant in his taproom about five o’clock, the worse for drink. He was using filthy language, and the witness ordered him out. He refused to go, and the police were sent for and the defendant ejected. Witness admitted that the defendant got drunk in his house, but said he did not serve him but his companions, who gave the beer to him. Defendant came into his house at five o’clock and was ejected shortly after seven. P. C. Peberdy said Burley left the house at his request. He had had some drinks but was not drunk. Defendant said the disturbance was started by a woman throwing a pint of beer at him. The landlord himself was not sober and all of them in the house were the worse for drink. The constable said the landlord was perfectly sober when he saw him. This was the defendant’s tenth appearance and he was fined 5s or five days, and the chairman asked the police to take notice of the evidence that had been given and to keep a watch on the house.
