ASSAULT ON A LANDLORD

Thursday March 13th:- Before Captain Kennicott R.N., A.M. Leith and James Tolputt, Esqs.

Charles M'Bride, 21st Fusiliers, came up with another soldier to the "Victoria Inn," South Street, about 20 minutes past 12 o'clock on Thursday morning, just as Mr. Boult was closing his door, and wanted drink. Mr. Boult told them they could not have any; it was too late; and he shut the door. But they forced the door open, and prisoner collared witness; but P.C. Reynolds hearing a cry out, hastened up; and after some trouble, made him release his hold. On the way to the station the prisoner struck Reynolds on the face and kicked him. The bench sent him to seven days' hard labour.
