DOVER POLICE REPORT

James Etall was fined in the mitigated penalty of £12:10 for selling tobacco without a license.

I'm not sure whether he ran a pub, but there was a George Etall running the "Young prince of Wales" in the same year.

CAUTION TO TRADESMEN

A few weeks back we published a caution to tradesmen, innkeepers, &c., against a person travelling about for the purpose of uttering forged cheques, and who had succeeded in defrauding (it has since been ascertained) several tradesmen and innkeepers in this county. There is some satisfaction in knowing that a person, who is suspected of being the same individual, is now likely to meet with the punishment he richly deserves. It appears by the publicised report, that on Saturday, the 2nd or 9th inst. He was at the "Castle Inn," Coventry, where he obtained £27 15s. in payment for a cheque that has since been ascertained to be forged. It appears that the innkeeper, after having cashed the cheque, had some reason to suspect all was not right, and got the inspector of police to take the party, as he was about leaving by coach. Upon the examination before the Magistrates, such evidence was produced as led to his committal to take his trial at Warwick assizes.

West Kent Guardian 7 September 1844.

LICENSING.

The general annual licensing day for the hundred of Blackheath and Little and Lessness in the county of Kent, was held at the Magistrates' Office, Grooms's-hill, Greenwich, September 4, 1844, before Sir Thomas Maryon Wilson, bart., chairman, and the following magistrates:— Sir Gregory Lewin, knt., Adam Young, Esq., John Thackery, Esq, Crowly Millington, Esq., Charles Harwoud, Esq., and Joshua Hargrave, Esq.

The parishes of St. Paul and St. Nicholas, Deptford, were first taken into consideration, and the licenses renewed for the ensuing year after a few trifling complaints of irregularity to the whole of the licensed victuallers of this populous district with one exception,—comprising 83 public houses and 18 beer shops.

The parish of Greenwich with 78 public houses followed. The whole of the licenses, with one exception, were renewed. This was a case in which the party had been convicted three times for selling during divine service on Sunday, and not appearing to the summons.—Transfer of license to be refused—37 beer shops in this parish.

Parishes of Lee and Lewisham, having 37 public houses with 22 beer shops. The licenses were all renewed in these parishes without any complaint against the conduct of the houses.

The parishes of Woolwich and Charlton, with 64 licensed houses, Eltham and Muttingham with 14 ditto. The respectivc landlords in these places had their renewals granted without complaint, and at the close were highly complimented by the chairman and bench generally for the very correct and proper manner in which their trade had been conducted during the past year.

APPLICATIONS FOR LICENSES BY BEER SHOP KEEPERS.

After the usual licensing of public houses had been disposed of, no less than thirty-four applications for victualling house licenses were presented; viz., six from Deptford, eight from Greenwich, four from Lewisham, and sixteen from Woolwich, as detailed in last week's Guardian.

This unusual number of applications may in a great degree be attributed to the increased population in the borough of Greenwich, and enlargement of the dockyards of Woolwich and Deptford, added to the vast increase of new buildings required by the public, desirous of a residence affording such frequent and cheap transit by land and water, from and to the metropolis.

These petitions will be taken into consideration at the adjourned Special Session to be held the last Saturday in September.
