Kentish Gazette, 5 June 1849.
By reference to our advertising columns, it will be seen that the
extensive brewery and numerous estates belonging to Messrs. Flint,
of Canterbury, will be submitted to public competition the latter end of
this month. The concern includes a large extent of freehold
property (comprising several residences) in various parts of Canterbury,
and the adjacent towns. We are induced to call the attention
of our readers to this important sale, as it rarely happens that a
property of so extensive and varied a description is brought to
auction in this locality, or presenting as favourable an opportunity for
investment.

licenses without difficulty, there not being a single police complaint
against any of them.

beer-house for twenty years, and were distant a mile and a half from the
"Black Horse," the nearest public-house.
License refused.
GREENWICH.
The General Licensing-day for the Hundred of Black-heath and Little and
Lessness, was held at the Public rooms, Crooms-hill, Greenwich.
The licenses for the following places were renewed, viz. St. Nicholas (31)
and St. Paul, Deptford (60), Greenwich (31), Lee (4), Lewisham (36),
Woolwich (76), Eltham (6), Charlton (7), Mottinghara (1), Plumsted (11),
Crayford (9), Erith (11), and East Wickham (4), in all 337, with the

GRAVESEND.
The general annual licensing meeting for this borough was held at the Town

At the last Aylesbury County Court (Mr. J.

been sustained by the plaintiff in consequence of the defendant declining to
supply refreshment, either to himself or horse, on Sunday, the 1st of June
last. It appeared, from the plaintiff's statement, that on the day in
question he was proceeding with a horse and Cart, heavily laden, from Oxford
to Leighton Buzzard, and that upon calling at the defendant's house for
refreshment it was refused; the plaintiff stating that he was, in
consequence, compelled to proceed four miles further on his journey before
he could procure anything, and that the heat of the day, and the want of
refreshment, had such an effect upon him that he was obliged to lay up for
the whole of the following week, by which he was damaged to the amount of
18s. The judge, however, refused to give the plaintiff the whole amount he
claimed, but awarded the defendant to pay 5s. and the whole of the costs of
the day.
