On the night of Sunday 17th November 1850, E. Clarke of Crook's Place entered the house and had a glass of brandy. Calling for more, the landlord, James Briggs, refused to serve him since he thought Clarke to be tipsy.
Leaving the house, Clarke threw a stone, through a window. An hour later he returned and broke ten or twelve more panes and knocked down the landlord. Constable Osborne was called and suffered an attempted bite from Clarke. Other policemen who assisted in taking the offender to the police-station were also assaulted.
The following day Clarke was fined £5 for assaulting the police and unable to pay, was sentenced to one month's hard labour. He was due to be prosecuted for the damage upon his release, unless the amount due was paid in the meantime.
