I will be adding the historical information when I find or are sent it, but this project is a very big one, and I do not know when or where the information will come from.

From the Dover Express, Friday 19 August, 1868.

FELONY.

On Monday, before Major Hall, Edward William Salmon, painter, of Abbey Street, Faversham, was charged with stealing a brass candlestick, value 1s. 6d., the property of William Amos, landlord of the "Windmill," Oare, on the 14th instant. The prisoner and about twenty others, went to the "Windmill," and after they had left the candlestick was missed. Some of the prisoner's friends were accused of stealing the candlestick and they intimated that the prisoner had taken it. P.C. Kind apprehended the prisoner, who said he had put the candlestick "up the spout." After the prisoner had been locked up, the constable found the candlestick in the hedge between Faversham and Oare.

Remanded to the petty sessions.
