On Friday 22nd June 1866, Mrs Harriett Miller, wife of the landlord of the WATERLOO TAVERN was charged by fruiterer Mr. Newton of assaulting him at the WOUNDED HART on the previous Wednesday. It was claimed that Mrs. Miller made allusions to his eyes, called him foul names and `chaffed' him about not paying for a bed and breakfast when he had visited a house in London. When he asked her what she meant, she slapped him three times. He was not hurt, but stung by the insult he had to bear before a large company. The magistrates thought it a foolish quarrel and dismissed the case. |
