• similar position, was charged with being drunk and
assaulting the police.
Sergeant Mitchell found her drunk at Fordington, and
suppmting herself against a well. When spoken to she
roundly abused the officer, and finished up with giving
him a ship in the face.
She pleaded that she had only had a "little beer" and
was g home.
Mr. pin told her it was very lamentable that she
should go on in this way.
Her father who appeared, said she had been encouraged
in her drunkenness 13y a widow woman named Pitfield, who
keens • public house, and who supplied her with beer
on credit when she had no money.
The magistrates said this should be enquired into, as
the publicans were liable to be summoned for having
habitual drunkards on their premises.
The father was asked if he had no control over her, and
he said he had at times, but he had had much trouble
with her. He had paid 14s. SM, recently in a debt for her,
and now the magistrates fined her 20s. including costs, or
14 days.
The father again paid.

several others in his hands. He was coming over the
