East and South Devon Advertiser: Saturday 4th October 1890

The Jolly Sailor Inn: Superintendent Barbor appeared and withdrew the objection of the police to the above Inn, raised on account of internal communication. This had now been removed, and Mr. Pinsent had undertaken that no other tenant should enter the cottage communicating with the inn. Enquiries had also been made with regard to the incoming tenant, which were satisfactory. The license was accordingly renewed, and afterwards transferred to James Sanders, of Dartmouth. — The license of the Two-mile Oak inn, between Newton and Ipplepen, was transferred from Mr. Potter to Mr. Charles Ryder.

Newton Petty Sessions: Tuesday: Before Mr. J. Vicary (in the chair) Admiral Cornish-Bowden, Dr. Gaye, Messrs. F. H. Plumptre, W. J. Watts, Junr., and H. E. Brown: … Licenses: … … The Chairman said the whole of the licenses would be renewed. Superintendent Barbor then submitted a statement. He said it was his intention to attend at the annual licensing meeting, and oppose the renewal of the license of Jolly Sailor Inn, Newton, occupied by James Milton, on the following grounds — l, there is internal communication; 2, it is a house of resort for thieves; 3, the house is not required. Mr. Windeatt (Totnes), on behalf of Mr. Pinsent, brewer, Newton, said his client was the owner of the house in question. Notice to quit had been given to the present landlord, whose term expired on the 28th inst., and a substitute had been obtained, on whose behalf he attended. He believed they would not have the slightest objection to the new person, as he had occupied a similar position before, and, with the testimonials he possessed, he considered would adequately meet the objections. The house had been established for over fifty years, during which there had not been a conviction, only against the wife of the present landlord, who unfortunately did not conduct herself as well as she could. If they could comply with the police wishes, perhaps the Bench would allow the license to be renewed from the old tenant to the new one. Mr. Pinsent was sorry for what had recently occurred, and he would willingly accept any suggestions from the Bench, or would meet the police on the subject. The Chairman said the case would be adjourned to the coming licensing meeting, and in the meantime several of the Bench would inspect the premises.

Newton Police Court: Yesterday: Before Messrs. J. Vicary (chairman), F. H. Plumptre, H. E. Brown, W. J. Watts, junr., Col. Hughes, Admiral Cornish-Bowden. This was the annual licensing day and most of the landlords the attended. George Small, of the Railway Hotel, Teignmouth, Henry H. Richards, Royal Oak, Newton, and Geo. Dennis, Volunteers Inn, Newton, having been convicted during the year, the former for permitting gambling and the two latter for permitting drunkenness on their premises were called up and cautioned as to their future conduct. Superintendent Barbor opposed the renewal of the licence of the Jolly Sailor Inn, East-street, kept by James Milton, on three grounds — firstly, because of internal communication; secondly, because it was the resort of thieves and thirdly, because the house is not wanted. 

Mr Windeatt appeared for the owners of the house, Messrs. Pinsent and Sons, and said it would probably save the time of the Bench if he stated that when Mr. Pinsent found out the manner in which the house was being conducted and the complaints that had been made respecting it, at once gave the landlord notice to quit. He was provided with a new tenant, man of irreproachable character who was at present holding a licence at St. Austell and consequently would not be able to take possession until 29th September. He therefore asked for a temporary authority to Mr. Pinsent to sell, from the time the present tenant leaves until the new one comes in. The internal communication had been stopped and Mr. Pinsent would meet the police and undertake to do what was necessary to their satisfaction.

The Bench adjourned the case to the 30th September, the Chairman saying that some of the magistrates would visit the premises and see for themselves the state they were in. The licences were all renewed. That of the Rising Inn, Woodland was transferred from Mr. Dawe to Mr. Denley, and that of the Ship Inn, Chudleigh from Mr. Carter to Mr. Chard.
