At the Docking Brewster Sessions, held Monday 31st August 1885, Mr. Gant was
warned that he must not keep his house open after the regulation time. In
reply, Mr. Gant said that he had only served those who had just arrived by
train and were legitimate travellers. Superintendent Ward claimed that some
were local inhabitants. Mr. Gant then turned to Police-constable Baldwin and
asked why the theft of some hay had not been solved and accused the
constable of being within a different house. In order that evidence could be
gathered, the licence renewal would be deferred for one month.
Location as Southgate in 1871.
