Three soldiers on furlough, Robert Thompson, Charles Chapman and James Powl, were charged February 1876 of being drunk and disorderly. However it was heard that licensee Charles Garrod had called them `slinks' and worse with a strong adjective. In consequence, the Bench decided they had been provoked and charges were dismissed with advice and a caution.
