From the Kent and Sussex Courier, 15 July 1874.
Caple. Drunk and Quarrelsome.
John Stevens, a labourer, attending a threshing machine, of Capel, was
summoned for being drunk, violent, and refusing to quit the "Queen's
Head," Capel, on the 1st inst; also for damaging a door to the amount of
2s., the property of Thomas Tully, the landlord; and also with being
drunk on the highway on the 1st inst.
Defendant did not appear, and service of summons was proved by P.C.
Whibley, who said that when he served the summons defendant remarked, "I
suppose I shall not be hanged."
Thomas Tully, landlord of the "Queen's Head Inn," Five Oak Green, Caple,
said that on the day in question the defendant called at his house and
commenced quarrelling with everyone present, and pulled the door down.
He refused to leave.
William Waterman gave corroborative testimony.
P.C. Whibley said he saw the defendant in a drunken state on the road.
The Bench fined the defendant 5s and 13s 6d. costs in the first case, 5s
and 9s. costs in each case for being drunk, and also 2s. for damaging
the door.

to the "Red Cow," Capel, on the road from Tudely to Hadlow. The Bench
refused to grant either of the applications.
