On Wednesday 5th February 1873, Sophia Wagg was summoned by the Urban Sanitary Society for having, on 14th December 1872, exposing in a public place, a certain bed and clothing infected with small pox. The items had been been hung on a beam in the skittle alley and some visiting parties had been stricken down with small pox.
Sophia Wagg denied the offence and claimed that everything was done to disinfect the clothes and bed.
Without penalty, the costs of the hearing were £1 7s which the magistrates considered to be far too large a sum for Wagg to pay, the case was therefore dismissed.

Referred for Compensation 11th February 1907.

Licence refused by consent, subject to compensation, at the Kings Lynn Compensation Authority Meeting on Tuesday 9th July 1907.
